How it sells itself

OptiLens reads your live store and scores conversion health out of 100. Six checks: UX, copy, SEO, speed, persuasion, and store context. Issues are ranked by impact. Each issue names a change and cites AIDA, Cialdini, E-E-A-T, Core Web Vitals, or WCAG. It shows if AI answer engines can read the store. On paid plans, copy a prompt for each fix. Growth adds Facebook and X share previews.

Trace Lens runs comprehensive store audits from Shopify Admin. Reports combine Lighthouse performance and SEO scores, a read-only theme code scan, discoverability checks for generative search, and an automated product-to-checkout review. See what to fix first in one report instead of using separate tools or hiring an agency for a single review.

Key points
  • Audit UX, copy, SEO, speed, and persuasion in one pass, ranked into one list
  • Each issue includes a specific change to make. OptiLens does not edit themes
  • Track Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP) against Google's official thresholds
  • See estimated revenue at risk, marked as a benchmark estimate
  • Lighthouse audits for mobile and desktop speed, SEO, and accessibility
  • Theme code scan finds Liquid and layout issues affecting store performance
  • Discoverability check shows how your store appears in AI-powered search
  • Automated checkout audit tests your product page through to checkout

OptiLens and TraceLens: common questions

Is OptiLens or TraceLens cheaper?

Where does this comparison’s data come from?
Shoplist crawls Shopify storefronts to detect which apps each store runs, and reads each app’s Shopify App Store listing for reviews, pricing, features and integrations. Store counts are as of Oct 19, 2026 for OptiLens, Oct 13, 2026 for TraceLens; estimated figures are labeled.

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 19, 2026 for OptiLens, Oct 13, 2026 for TraceLens. 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.
