The problem it solves

You want to research a competitor's Shopify store or track your own catalog, but copying product names, prices, and tags by hand is tedious and error-prone. Doing this for more than one store quickly eats up your afternoon.

Who it fits

E-commerce operators, marketers, or analysts who need quick competitive research on Shopify stores.

How it works

  1. You submit a Shopify store URL through a simple form
  2. The system requests store details and product data from a scraping service
  3. Store information is logged into one sheet
  4. Product details are logged into a second sheet
What you get

Product and store data laid out for comparison

You get a clear spreadsheet of any Shopify store's products and details, ready to study for competitive research.

What you get

Two organized Google Sheets: one with store details and one with the full product catalog.

What you need

A Google Sheets account and a subscription to a web scraping API service.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
