See every featureShelfBeacon helps merchants review catalog changes, product data issues, approved competitor signals, exports, and daily reminder emails from one read-only dashboard. It prioritizes what to review first before launches, promotions, or store updates. The app requests read_products only and does not edit products, change prices, or write to Shopify data.
ShopSight helps merchants track changes in products, orders, and customers over time. The app stores structured snapshots and provides clear history views so merchants can compare previous and current data states. Existing shop data is imported during the initial sync, and snapshot/history tracking begins after the app has been installed.
