Quick answer

Kedra: AI SEO & AEO Visibility tests the buying questions shoppers ask AI assistants, reports whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Mode and AI Overviews recommend your store or a competitor, and generates ranked fixes that it drafts and applies on your approval. It keeps llms.txt, agents.md and structured data current from your catalogue and tracks visits and sales arriving from AI assistants. It holds 4.9 from 48 reviews with the Built for Shopify badge. The free plan covers the file generation, an AI readiness check with 3 fixes a month and 1 visibility scan; paid plans are $25, $79 and $199 a month with a 14-day trial.

🎯
Our Verdict

Split this app in two before judging it, because the two halves are not equally defensible.

The first half is mechanical and sits on the free plan: generating and maintaining llms.txt, agents.md and llms-full.txt from your live catalogue, publishing structured data and an AI product feed, and checking that nothing is blocking AI crawlers, the screenshots show it flagging a storefront password doing exactly that. This part is verifiable. Either the files exist, are current and are reachable, or they are not. Shopify gives every store the same defaults, so having yours written from your actual catalogue is a real if modest differentiator, and it costs nothing here.

The second half is monitoring, and it is what the $25, $79 and $199 tiers sell. Kedra tests a set of buyer questions against the assistants and reports who gets recommended, tracks which AI crawlers visited which pages, and attributes sessions and orders to AI referrals. The crawler log and the referral attribution are solid data, those are real requests and real sessions. The question-tracking is sampled rather than absolute: an assistant’s answer varies by phrasing, by user context and by day, so ’12 buyer questions tracked’ is a survey, not a rank position. That is not a flaw in the app so much as the nature of the thing being measured, but it should temper what you expect from the number, and anyone selling you an exact ‘AI rank’ is overselling.

The app is young, listed April 2026, with 48 reviews at 4.9, and it carries the Built for Shopify badge. The reviews that describe specific outcomes mention the audit flagging short product titles, missing variant data and schema gaps, which is the kind of concrete finding you can act on. For most stores the honest move is to run the free tier, fix what it finds, and only pay for monitoring once you can see AI referrals arriving in the analytics that the free tier already shows you.

01

What Kedra AI SEO actually does

The audit scores your store out of 100 on AI readiness and lists what to fix in priority order, each item marked low, medium or high effort, with a link that opens the right screen in Shopify. The checks cover the things an assistant looks for before recommending a store: product detail and specifications, variant data, schema, an FAQ page, and published refund, shipping and terms policies. Fixes can be drafted for you and applied once you approve them, with an autopilot option on paid tiers.

On the discovery side it writes agents.md, llms.txt and llms-full.txt from your live catalogue, keeps the three in sync, publishes them on your own domain and updates them as the catalogue changes, alongside structured data and an AI product feed. Monitoring then runs in two parts: a crawler log showing which assistant fetched which URL and when, including purchases that followed, and question tracking that tests buyer questions against ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Mode and AI Overviews to see who gets recommended. Analytics report AI sessions, crawler visits and the visibility score over time. Paid tiers add an AI blog writer and competitor tracking.

Pros & cons

✓ Pros
  • The free plan covers the verifiable part: llms.txt, agents.md, structured data and an AI product feed, kept current from your catalogue
  • Crawler log shows which assistant read which page and when, real requests, not estimates
  • Audit findings are concrete and prioritised by effort, with links straight to the right Shopify screen
  • 4.9 from 48 reviews with the Built for Shopify badge
  • AI referral analytics let you decide whether paying for monitoring is justified before you do it
✗ Cons
  • Question tracking is sampled, so treat it as a survey rather than a rank position
  • 48 reviews and an April 2026 launch, a short track record in a very new category
  • The jump to useful monitoring is $25/mo, and multi-market tracking starts at $79
  • The AI blog writer is the kind of bulk content that got sites demoted in 2026, use with care, if at all
  • We have not run it on a live store; this assessment comes from the listing, pricing and review distribution

Before you spend trial time

  • 1Run the free plan first and fix everything the readiness check flags, that work is worth doing regardless
  • 2Confirm llms.txt and agents.md are actually reachable on your domain after publishing
  • 3Check the crawler log after a week: if no assistant is reading your store, monitoring has nothing to monitor yet
  • 4Compare AI sessions against your total sessions before paying $25, the referral volume decides the value
  • 5If you try the AI blog writer, publish one post and watch how it is indexed before producing more
  • 6Pick your buyer questions as a customer would phrase them, not as you describe your own products

Closing take

The free tier is the easy recommendation. Keeping llms.txt, agents.md and structured data current from your live catalogue is mechanical work with a clear output, and having it done automatically rather than by hand is worth an install on its own.

The paid tiers are a judgement call that the free tier helps you make. Watch the crawler log and the AI session count for a few weeks. If assistants are reading your store and sending buyers, $25 a month to track and improve that is reasonable. If the log is quiet, save the money and revisit in a quarter.

Frequently asked questions

What does Kedra AI SEO actually do?

Two things. It generates and maintains llms.txt, agents.md, structured data and an AI product feed from your catalogue so AI assistants can read your store, and it monitors whether assistants recommend you, which ones crawl your pages, and how many sessions and sales arrive from them.

Is the free plan useful on its own?

Yes, and it is the part we would install first. It covers file generation and upkeep, an AI readiness check with three fixes a month, one visibility scan across ChatGPT and Gemini, structured data and seven days of analytics.

Can it really tell me if ChatGPT recommends my store?

It tests buyer questions against the assistants and reports what came back, which is a sample rather than a fixed ranking. Answers vary by phrasing, user context and date, so read it as a survey trend, not a rank position. The crawler log and referral analytics are harder data.

What are llms.txt and agents.md?

Text files on your domain that tell AI systems what you sell and how your store works. Shopify gives every store the same defaults, so one written from your own catalogue is what differentiates you. Kedra writes all three files and keeps them current as products change.

How much does it cost?

Free for file generation and a basic readiness check. Grow is $25 a month for six-assistant tracking, 12 buyer questions and 25 fixes; Pro is $79 for three markets and unlimited fixes; Scale is $199 for 10 markets and daily tracking. Annual billing saves 25-28%.

Should I use its AI blog writer?

Cautiously. Bulk AI-generated content is exactly what Google’s 2026 updates demoted, and a page that adds nothing is a liability whoever wrote it. If you use it, treat the output as a first draft that you fact-check and rewrite, and publish few rather than many.
