General
What is Storapulse?
A tool for online stores that measures and improves their visibility on Google (SEO) and in AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity (GEO, AEO), checks whether they are actually named there (GEI), and answers customer support with AI.
What do SEO, GEO, AEO and GEI mean?
SEO: being found on Google. GEO: being understood by AI assistants. AEO: making your information clear enough for them to answer about you. GEI: our in-house indicator of your presence in their answers.
Which platforms are supported?
Shopify for every feature. The free scan works on any public website. WooCommerce, Etsy, Amazon and eBay are planned, not available yet.
In which languages?
The public site exists in 12 languages. The app itself is in French and English: it follows the language you pick, and falls back to your browser if you have not chosen one.
Scan and scores
Is the scan really free?
Yes, no card and no account. It is rate-limited to prevent abuse.
Why is my score lower than elsewhere?
Because we stay conservative while proof is missing: we would rather underestimate than overpromise. The reason shows under the score, with what would raise it.
What is the technical score shown under the cap?
It is the raw readiness score (markup, pages, files). It shows the work already done; the displayed score reflects what we verified.
My site is never cited by AI, is that bad?
That is the case for most stores. AI visibility builds over several weeks: fix the gaps, publish pages that answer shoppers' questions, then re-measure every week.
How long before it improves?
Technical fixes count in the score immediately. Being cited by AI rises in steps, usually over several weeks. We promise neither a timeline nor a result.
AI customer support
Does the AI answer my customers on its own?
Only for the intents you ticked, above the confidence you set. Refund, damaged product and cancellation never go out automatically.
Can the AI make up order details?
It relies on the real order, and only when that order belongs to the e-mail writing in. Otherwise it gives no order information.
What happens beyond the included tickets?
The service continues; each extra ticket is billed at the rate shown on the Pricing page.
Shopify store
Can Storapulse damage my store?
By default it only fills what is missing, never deletes anything, and saves the previous version before any replacement you authorised.
Which Shopify permissions are requested?
Read and write products, pages, menus, policies and content, read orders, read and write the theme: what is needed to analyse and publish fixes. Nothing about your payments.
Are the generated texts mine?
Yes. You remain responsible for the products sold and the content published on your store, including content generated at your request.
Billing and account
Is there a free trial?
No — instead you get 20% off your first month. No commitment: cancel anytime from your account.
How do I cancel?
Billing → Manage my subscription. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the paid period, free of charge.
Who issues my invoices?
Bill (monbill.fr), through the approved e-invoicing platform. A copy is available in “My invoices”.
My payment was declined, what now?
Update your card from Billing. the payment is retried automatically; you receive an e-mail at each important step.
How do I get or delete my data?
Billing → My account: full export in one click, or permanent deletion (after cancelling the subscription). Invoices are kept, as the law requires.
Data and security
Where is my data hosted?
In Europe, with European providers. The full list is in the privacy policy.
Is my data used to train AI?
We only send AI engines what each task requires. Your customers' messages are never cached.
How do I contact you?
Through the Contact page: a human answers, usually within one business day.
