Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureCandor helps Shopify merchants stay transparent about their use of AI, in line with the EU AI Act. If your store uses an AI chatbot, the law requires you to tell visitors they are talking to AI. Candor shows a clear notice automatically. You can also label AI-assisted product descriptions and add an AI info page. Notices appear only to EU visitors, so your other customers are never disturbed.
Disclosure Guard runs a read-only check of your public storefront’s initial HTML. It looks for supported customer-facing chat technology signals and visible AI disclosure wording, then returns a technical score, clear findings, and a timestamped history. Detection is not proof of compliance, and dynamically loaded or customized tools may need manual review.

How Shoplist compares apps
Store counts come from Shoplist’s crawl of Shopify storefronts, which detects the apps each store runs; they are as of Oct 14, 2026. Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads.
