How the tools fit together

Each tool answers one question a Shopify brand actually asks. The SKU Visibility Grader tells you which products are showing up in AI answers and which are not. The AEO Grader grades your whole store's answer-engine readiness on five factors. The ChatGPT checker zooms in on one product and one engine. The llms.txt generator and schema generator fix the two most common technical gaps that cost brands AI citations.

None of these are magic. They do the thing an SEO or ecom lead would do by hand, faster and on a schedule. The full eCommerce Insights product runs them all continuously against every SKU in the catalog and sends a weekly digest of what changed.

Who built these

The eCommerce Insights team has shipped Shopify apps, run in-house SEO at D2C brands, and worked with agencies on mid-market catalog work. The tools here match what those teams need on a Tuesday morning when the best-seller's traffic drops and nobody knows why.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to sign up to use these tools?

Most of the tools run without an account. The llms.txt generator and product schema generator produce output in the browser without a signup. The flagship Shopify SKU Visibility Grader and the ChatGPT product visibility checker require an email so eCommerce Insights can send the report, but neither asks for a credit card or a password.

Is there a paid version of these tools?

The free tools are standalone and do not expire. The full eCommerce Insights product runs the same checks against your whole catalog, on a schedule, with weekly digests and push-to-Shopify recommendations. The free tools answer one-off questions; the paid product handles the ongoing job of keeping a catalog AI-visible.

Can agencies use the free tools for their clients?

Yes. The tools are free for commercial use, including agency audits and pitch decks. Agencies managing three or more brands will want the agency plan, which adds multi-store dashboards, branded PDF exports, and a Week-1 onboarding workflow. The free tools remain useful for first-touch conversations with prospects.

Which free tool should I run first?

Start with the Shopify SKU Visibility Grader. It tells you whether your top SKUs are being cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews today, which is the question most Shopify brands actually want answered. Follow with the AEO Grader for a store-wide score, then use the llms.txt and schema generators to close the specific gaps the first two flagged.
