The Opportunity
An app that automatically scans a Shopify store for on-page SEO, UX, trust, and technical issues and returns prioritized fixes in plain language. It gives merchants a free or freemium audit so they can improve store quality without paying for expensive SEO tools.

Implementation Notes
Crawl storefront pages through Shopify storefront access, analyze meta titles/descriptions, headings, alt text, schema presence, broken links, duplicate content, page speed proxies, trust signals, CTA clarity, and content quality heuristics; generate a scorecard and prioritized fixes; cache results and re-scan on demand; ensure the app works as a Shopify-installed dashboard with optional theme-app integration for deeper checks.
