Crawler and indexability
Whether Google and AI crawlers can actually reach your pages: llms.txt, robots.txt, sitemap access, and whether AI bots like GPTBot and PerplexityBot are blocked.
Paste your Shopify store URL. We check the classic SEO fundamentals, then go further and score how ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews read your store too — because that is now part of SEO. Free, no signup, results in about a minute.
The free score shows where you stand. The Hatchloop app for Shopify handles the one-click fixes yourself from $12/month. The $499 AEO Audit + Fix is the done-for-you option: we run the full audit, then implement the fixes ourselves — descriptions published, structured data injected, llms.txt built, crawler blocks corrected — with your approval before anything goes live, ready-to-paste code for anything needing your own developer, and a free re-scan after 30 days.
A few years ago, SEO meant optimizing for one crawler: Googlebot. Shoppers now also ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google’s own AI Overviews to recommend products directly inside the answer, before they ever click a blue link. Those answers are built from the same category of signal a search engine has always rewarded — structured data, crawlable pages, and content that actually answers the shopper’s question.
That overlap is the point of this checker. Instead of treating “AI visibility” as a separate audit bolted onto SEO, we score five real, checkable signals that decide both outcomes at once: whether Google can rank your store, and whether an AI engine can read it well enough to recommend it. Fix one and you usually improve the other.
Each one is a real signal search engines and AI answer engines both use — not a proxy metric.
Whether Google and AI crawlers can actually reach your pages: llms.txt, robots.txt, sitemap access, and whether AI bots like GPTBot and PerplexityBot are blocked.
Thin, boilerplate descriptions rank poorly and never get quoted. We sample your catalog for description depth and image alt text.
Product, Offer, FAQ, and Organization schema are what let Google build rich results and let AI engines cite you with confidence.
Featured snippets and AI Overviews both favor pages that answer a specific question. We check for FAQ schema and question-style headings.
Selling in multiple markets? We check whether your hreflang, currency, and language signals are set up so the right shoppers see the right store.
Yes. Paste your store URL and get a live SEO and AI-visibility score with no signup and nothing stored. We only read your public storefront over HTTP, the same way Google and AI crawlers do.
Classic SEO checkers stop at Google: title tags, meta descriptions, page speed. This tool checks those same fundamentals through your Shopify feed and schema, then goes further and scores how AI answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews read your store too, since those are becoming a second search surface shoppers use.
Five signals read live from your storefront: crawler and indexability (llms.txt, robots.txt, sitemap access), product content quality (description depth, image alt text), structured data (Product, Offer, FAQ, and Organization schema), answer and FAQ content, and international SEO hygiene (hreflang for multi-market stores).
No. The check reads your public storefront the same way a search engine or AI crawler would, with no login, no app install, and no admin access. Nothing is stored.
The free check shows exactly what is missing. The Hatchloop app for Shopify fixes the one-click gaps yourself for $12/month. If you would rather not do any of it, the $499 AEO Audit + Fix is done for you — we run the full audit and then implement the fixes ourselves, with your approval, plus ready-to-paste code for anything that needs your own developer and a free 30-day re-scan.
