## Description

Open a Shopify store and it returns the installed apps, the active theme, the product catalog and its best sellers. It also returns estimated monthly traffic with its sources, estimated monthly sales, and the store's live ad creatives. The free plan is 15 tokens a month and does not expire. App and theme detection cost no tokens, and a traffic analysis costs 3. Premium is $22 a month for 220 tokens and tracking of up to 50 stores, with one-off token packs from $3.99. One of about ten tools from Koala Apps, alongside separate theme and app detectors, a sales tracker, a store analyzer and a set of calculators.

## Watch for

Monetized by affiliate links, to TikTok, Klaviyo, Zendrop, Printify and NordVPN among others. It also has an affiliate and an ambassador program of its own. So nothing it recommends around the data is neutral. No legal entity, country or person is named anywhere on the site. The sales and traffic figures are estimates published with no method attached. Use them to rank stores, not to quote one.

## Editor's note

Same as Welookup and Shopscan. Nothing more.
