BuiltWith vs CartInsight

The caveats

BuiltWith. Its Shopify detail stops one level above where an app vendor works. Its own Shopify page breaks the platform into products and more than 40 themes, and lists no individual app detection anywhere. This category exists for one question: which stores run my competitor. Store Leads answers it with 8,127 tracked apps and install dates, and this does not appear to answer it at all. Price is the other half: $295 a month is the floor, against $75 for Store Leads and $49 for StoreInspect Pro. That tier buys 2 technologies, 2 keywords and 2 reports, unlimited anything starts at $495, and a second seat at $995. There is no free trial either, only the permanent single-site lookup, so there is no way to test a segment at volume before paying. Buy it for the merchants who are not on Shopify yet: everything it does inside Shopify is cheaper and deeper two rows up.

CartInsight. It does not visibly answer the question an app vendor buys this category for. Its plugin directory catalogs 9,781 Shopify apps, but that is a list of apps. Nothing on the public site shows the reverse lookup, which stores run a given app, that Store Leads sells with 8,127 tracked apps and install dates. Check it on the free account before anything else. Contacts are also far fewer than stores, 75,000 against 524,047, so most rows arrive with no person attached. Ownership is stated two ways on its own pages, as a business of Ready Innovations Inc., and as a product of Ready, a business of Better Industries Inc., at the same Dover, Delaware mailing address. The Team link in its own footer is dead.
