Changelog
What we've shipped
New features, improvements, and fixes for making Shopify stores readable to AI shopping agents. Newest first.
- New
Pro AI for product images and content
A vision model now writes alt text by actually looking at each photo (colours, materials, on-model vs flat-lay) alongside Pro product descriptions and FAQ drafts. Every Pro run shows its credit cost before it happens, cached repeats are free, and failed runs refund automatically. Available on every plan, including free.

Subscriptions, readable by AI agents
Subscribe-and-save offers from Stay AI, Recharge, Skio, Loop, Appstle and every native-API subscription app now publish into your product structured data, llms.txt, and MCP endpoint, so when a shopper asks an assistant 'where can I get this monthly', your store has an answer on the record.

Store locator & trust strip blocks
Two new theme blocks for Growth plans: a Find-us store locator with a live open-now line per location, and a trust strip whose shipping and returns claims come from your real policies and delivery profiles. The trust badge that can't lie. Both inherit your theme and render nothing when there's no data.

HowTo & Recipe blocks
Your guides and recipes now render as clean visible blocks from the same fields as their structured data. Author once, show shoppers the steps and tell search engines and AI agents the same thing. Joins the FAQ accordion and location blocks in the storefront block set.
How it works - New
Free Shopify AI-Readiness Checker
Paste any store URL and get an instant A–F grade on how readable it is to AI shopping agents, with the specific structured-data and crawlability fixes that move the score. No install required.
Run the checker - New
Agentic-commerce glossary
A plain-English reference for the terms behind AI shopping: agentic commerce, llms.txt, JSON-LD, GEO, MCP, and more. Each term is marked up as a Schema.org DefinedTerm so AI answers can cite the definitions directly.
Open the glossary - New
The complete guide to Shopify agentic commerce
A pillar guide covering how AI agents discover, read, and recommend Shopify products, and the exact schema and feed work that gets your store cited instead of skipped.
Read the guide - Improved
AI Concierge now reads your storefront
During discovery, the Concierge fetches your live storefront the way a bot would and pulls return-policy and shipping URLs plus social profiles straight from your footer, so it stops missing links that were obviously on the page.
- Improved
LocalBusiness schema on every plan, including Free
Physical-store schema (hours, geo, price range, and the right subtype such as Restaurant or Store) is no longer gated behind a paid tier. Every store that benefits from it gets it.
- Improved
Cleaner help-center URLs
Help articles moved from query-string URLs to clean paths like /portal/getting-started. Each article is now its own canonical page, which search engines and AI crawlers index far more reliably.
- Improved
Faster indexing with IndexNow
When new content publishes, we now notify IndexNow so Bing and partner engines recrawl within minutes instead of days. ChatGPT and Copilot lean on Bing's index, so this also speeds up AI-answer visibility.
- Improved
Refreshed design system across both sites
A single fluid type scale, consistent 4px button radius with playful hover motion, and a shared visual language across the marketing site and the app so the whole product reads as one brand.
