RELEASE · CHANGELOG

What's new.

2026-05-13 — Industry benchmark shows up in more places

Your vs. Industry comparison in the Full AI Audit summary now appears whenever we have enough peer data for your industry — including niche product categories where the broader audit corpus hadn’t yet crossed our older threshold. If your industry has at least 20 classified peers in our directory, you’ll see how your score stacks up.

2026-05-13 — Cleaner Full AI Audit summary

Your Full AI Audit results page is now easier to read at a glance. The “AI Familiarity” card — which of Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini already know your brand — sits at the top of the executive summary alongside Biggest Gap and the industry benchmark, so you can take in all three headline findings side-by-side instead of hunting through the page.

Score deltas on re-scans are also clearer. A zero-change re-scan now says exactly that, and a higher or lower re-scan score shows the change as a green or red pill so the direction is unmistakable.

2026-05-13 — Clearer privacy disclosure for agent endpoint checks

Our privacy policy now describes the public Shopify agent endpoint checks we run on your store during a Full AI Audit.

2026-05-10 — Executive summary stays accurate when your industry changes

If your store’s industry classification changes after your Full AI Audit completes, the executive summary at the top of your results page now stays consistent with the rest of the page. Previously, the summary text could keep referring to your old industry even after reclassification, while the benchmark card and breadcrumb already showed the new one. Both surfaces now match.

2026-05-11 — Clearer privacy, support, and purchase terms

We refreshed the Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, Refund Policy, and Support page so they describe StoreAudit as it works today: passwordless accounts, saved dashboards, analytics, Full AI Audit deliverables, included follow-up rescans, Scan Passes, and the current refund promise.

Shopping shelf scoring is now more accurate. Previously, when a seller’s Shopping results showed your brand name but linked to a Google Shopping URL, your score was counted as a miss. We now match sellers by name, so if your store appears in the Shopping results, it’s counted as a hit — even when the link goes through Google’s shopping hub.

Search evidence rows in the Query Deep Dive are now clickable. Each organic result and Shopping seller links out to the live page so you can verify the results yourself.

2026-05-10 — Rescans now reliably complete

If you used a rescan credit to re-run your Full AI Audit, the audit could get stuck partway through — showing progress but never delivering your results. This is fixed. Rescans now complete fully, including the AI summary, action plan, and all paid deliverables.

2026-05-09 — See where buyers and AI find you

The Full AI Audit’s Query Deep Dive now tests every buyer-style question across three layers: AI answers, organic search, and Shopping results. You’ll see where you outrank competitors, where they outrank you, and which competitor domains keep showing up — all in the same drawer next to the AI verdict.

New summary cards at the top of the section give you a quick read on AI visibility, search visibility, Shopping shelf presence, and competitor pressure. Click any query to see the live evidence behind each verdict.

2026-05-08 — Smarter llms.txt install instructions

When we recommend an llms.txt file, we now point you at Shopify’s theme code editor first. If Shopify has exposed direct editing for your store, you can edit llms.txt.liquid in place. If you don’t see it yet, our existing upload-and-redirect steps still work — just framed as the fallback rather than the only path.

May 2026 — StoreAudit launches

StoreAudit is now live. Paste your Shopify store URL and find out how ready your store is for AI shopping assistants like ChatGPT, Google Shopping, and Perplexity.

Your free scan scores your store across 10 categories — from crawlability and product data quality to structured markup and brand visibility — and shows you exactly what to fix first.

Upgrade to a Full AI Audit for a deeper look: AI-generated recommendations tailored to your store, rewritten titles and descriptions for your top products, and a shareable PDF report.
