Scrunch monitors and even rewrites content for AI, but I need discoverability fixed inside my Shopify store and proven
Scrunch, now a Sitecore company, monitors how brands show up in AI answers, recommends page fixes and serves optimized versions of pages to AI agents at the edge. Visibility Mesh reads your website the way AI crawlers receive it, ranks what to fix and scans again after each change so you can see what moved. The web scan works on any website, and the Shopify app is for Shopify stores, where the Growth plan applies each fix after you approve it and lets you undo it.
Why merchants choose Visibility Mesh
Visibility Mesh suits Shopify merchants who want product and entity issues fixed in the store itself. On the Growth plan, it applies each fix after you approve it and scans again.
The core difference

- Human approval controls that govern every change before it goes live.
