Cited measures whether your products surface for the buying questions that matter and shows where competitors outrank you. It rewrites a product's title, tags and description for how AI retrieves products — applied to your catalog in one click, no theme edits or exports.

Shoppers now ask AI which products to buy. Cuebase is the AI SEO & GEO layer for Shopify that optimizes your catalog for those assistants. Score every product against the standards AI assistants use to evaluate products, generate fixes with AI, and apply them in one click.
