# Veridex AI Skill

Veridex AI helps Shopify teams measure and improve AI Shopping Readiness — whether AI can find, understand, trust, and recommend their products across ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity.

## What Veridex Can Do

- Run a free AI visibility benchmark for a connected Shopify store.
- Score AI Shopping Readiness per surface: separate ChatGPT and Google AI shopping scorecards (crawler access, server-rendered product facts, product-data completeness, Product + merchant-listing structured data, reviews, merchant trust).
- Probe crawler fetchability: fetch sample product pages as the main AI crawlers and flag pages that are blocked, client-side-rendered, or missing product facts in the served HTML.
- Track Share of Voice across ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity.
- Check entity clarity, Organization schema, product schema, FAQPage, AggregateRating, robots.txt, and llms.txt signals.
- Score review readiness (Growth and Scale): whether a valid AggregateRating is wired to the Product schema, plus review volume and average rating.
- Compare product price, availability, and details across the Shopify catalogue, product pages, page schema, and the Google feed, then list mismatches by severity (Growth and Scale).
- Monitor competitors by store-selected brand set.
- Show prioritised fixes with evidence from the sampled AI answers.
- Support recurring weekly monitoring and tier-based verification refreshes.
- Let paid stores view and customise their weekly monitoring queries: edit, add, disable, or reset to curated defaults, up to 20 active queries on any paid tier. The free report uses a curated set and is not editable.

## Best Fit Users

- Shopify operators who want to know whether AI assistants mention, cite, or miss their store in buying journeys.
- Agencies managing Shopify stores for clients.
- Growth teams that need recurring evidence rather than a one-time audit.

## Guardrails

- Veridex does not guarantee AI recommendations, traffic, revenue, or rankings.
- The default Shopify install is read-only.
- Paid remediation features may request narrow write access only when a merchant approves a specific publish action for Veridex-owned schema metaobjects.
- New subscriptions use Shopify App Pricing and can be cancelled before renewal through Shopify. Stripe is retained only as a dormant adapter for explicitly identified legacy direct-web subscriptions.
