Store Launch Audit & Optimization Assistant
The Opportunity
An app that automatically audits a new Shopify store for common conversion blockers and presents prioritized fixes for design, speed, layout, and content. It would help merchants quickly understand what might be hurting sales and what to improve first.
"The merchant has a new store with slow sales and needs actionable feedback on design, speed, layout, and content without hiring a consultant."

Implementation Notes
Build a storefront crawler and theme analyzer to assess page speed, accessibility, image optimization, content completeness, navigation clarity, trust signals, and mobile UX.
