Search access
We check whether sampled product pages can be reached and whether relevant search crawler controls create an obvious access barrier.
ChatGPT product discovery readiness
Find the public product-page gaps that can weaken ChatGPT discovery.
ChatGPT can work from merchant product data, public product pages, and other sources. Site Scanner checks the public facts you control first, then routes product-file or direct-purchase questions to the right follow-on path.
What Site Scanner checks
Find the public-store problems that a feed alone will not fix.
A product file can improve control over product data, but it does not replace accessible, accurate product pages or clear merchant policies.
Product facts shoppers compare
Titles, descriptions, price, availability, product codes, images, and options should be clear enough to compare without unsupported inference.
Visible and built-in details
We compare what shoppers see with product information built into the page and flag conflicting price, stock, or identity details.
Merchant and policy clarity
Return terms, seller identity, privacy, terms, and support information should be reachable and specific enough to support a purchase decision.
Current ChatGPT pathway
Product discovery, paid ads, and direct purchase are different paths.
Current OpenAI guidance separates organic shopping results from ads and keeps product selection independent. A readiness page should make those boundaries clear.
Shopify merchants already have a catalog route
Shopify product data is connected through Shopify Catalog, so an individual Shopify merchant does not need another feed integration merely for that connection.
Other merchants may use product feeds
A product file can improve titles, descriptions, URLs, brand, price, availability, seller, policy, and regional data when the source catalog is reliable.
Selection remains independent
Passing a scan or providing a feed does not require OpenAI to display a product, place it in a result, or support a direct-purchase flow.

Recommended next-step routing
Route the ChatGPT question to the layer that actually needs work.
The scanner is the public-storefront front door. Product-file and direct-purchase work follows only when the evidence supports it.
Pages or policies are unclear
Use Site Scanner and AI Search Remediation when access, product-page clarity, page information, or trust is the blocker.
Run the ChatGPT scanProduct-file data is weak
Use Catalog Scanner for missing fields, variants, identifiers, price, availability, seller details, and OpenAI-compatible output readiness.
Check a product fileDirect purchase is the goal
Use an AI Commerce Pathway Audit before protocol, checkout, payment, or order-lifecycle implementation is scoped.

Rules-based scores
Affected pages
Fix verification
- A tested score that keeps verified checks separate from checks the scanner could not complete.
- Confirmed problems tied to affected page addresses, followed by the merchant consequence.
- Practical fix steps and a clear rerun or validation check for every issue group.
- One recommended next step, work to defer, and clear limits on what the report proves.
Sample data is illustrative. A paid report uses a fresh scan for your chosen store.

When this check fits
Use the public scan before choosing deeper platform work.
This page is a good fit when
- You want to confirm public product-page and policy readiness before feed or channel work.
- Your public pages may contain incomplete or stale product facts, or appear to disagree with a shopping result.
- You need to determine whether the blocker is the site, product file, or commerce pathway.
If the scan confirms a public-store problem, our remediation rules route it to a focused fix with validation and approval. Product-file work stays separate in Catalog Scanner.
What this ChatGPT scan cannot prove
A public Site Scanner preview cannot certify product inclusion, ranking, merchant or feed acceptance, ad eligibility, direct checkout access, or sales. It also cannot inspect private merchant onboarding or product-feed account state.
