Frequently Asked Questions

OptimizerShop is an AI-powered Shopify optimization platform that automatically improves your product SEO, fixes Google Merchant Center compliance issues, generates alt text, cleans up GTINs, manages 404 redirects, and more — all on autopilot. 21 specialized bots run on a four-wave daily schedule powered by Gemini, Claude, Grok, and Perplexity.

Install directly from the Shopify App Store. Click Install, approve permissions, choose your plan, and your store will be scanned automatically within minutes.

Read and write access to products only. We never touch orders, customers, or payment data.

1-3 minutes for stores under 5,000 products. Large catalogs (10,000-50,000 products) typically complete their first full scan within 15-20 minutes across the first two waves.

We route tasks across four providers — Google Gemini (vision and image tasks), Anthropic Claude (reports and deep analysis), xAI Grok (bulk SEO copy generation), and Perplexity (market intelligence and trend data). Built-in circuit breakers automatically route around any provider that goes offline.

OptimizerShop runs 21 specialized AI bots across four daily waves. SEO Title and Description bots rewrite product copy for search visibility. Alt Text Bot generates image descriptions using Gemini Vision. GTIN Bot validates and fixes product identifiers. Schema Bot audits and patches JSON-LD structured data. GMC Deep Review runs an 8-phase compliance audit using Gemini Vision and Grok. Collections Bot auto-organizes your catalog. Redirect Bot discovers and fixes 404 errors. Blog Writer and Internal Linking bots handle content. Demand Scout scores every product for market opportunity.

All plans run on a four-wave daily schedule: 3AM, 9AM, 3PM, and 9PM UTC. Each wave runs the appropriate bots for your plan. Nothing manual, nothing to schedule.

No. We only improve — adding missing fields, fixing truncated titles, generating alt text. Your original product data is preserved and every change is logged with before/after values.

Every optimization is logged with before/after values. You can review all changes in your dashboard activity log.

Tasks are routed to the best model for the job: xAI Grok handles bulk SEO copy generation (fast and cost-efficient at $0.20/1M tokens), Google Gemini handles vision tasks like alt text and GMC image review, Anthropic Claude handles reports and deep analysis, and Perplexity powers Demand Scout market intelligence. A built-in router with circuit breakers selects the optimal provider automatically.

We only share data with service providers needed to run OptimizerShop. Our Privacy Policy lists each category, including Shopify (store access), Stripe (payments), Supabase (hosting), optional Google services you connect (Search Console, Merchant Center), and AI subprocessors: Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, Perplexity AI, and xAI Grok. Catalog text may be sent to those AI providers when you use features that rely on them.
