Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureWhen a product has no cost per item, Shopify reports that cost as $0.00 and books the whole sale as profit. It does not warn you. On a store where half the catalogue is missing costs, Shopify's own AI calls the margin "healthy". Free, forever, no SKU limit: find every variant with no cost, see how much recent revenue has none behind it, and export the list.
Your Shopify dashboard shows sales going up, but are you actually making money? Profit Pilot answers that on one simple screen. It reads your Shopify orders and subtracts every cost that eats your margin: product cost (COGS), payment fees, shipping and packaging, expected returns, and ad spend. The result is your true net profit, not just revenue.

- Ranks gaps by impact, so you fix the few that matter, not all of them
- Never asks for your customers' names, emails, phones or addresses
- True net profit across 5 cost layers: product cost, fees, shipping, returns, ads
- One clean screen, about 2-minute setup
- Real Shopify fees when available, clearly labeled estimates when not
- Date range filters: today, 7 days, 30 days, or all time
