Daily review count and rating drift. The blue line is cumulative review count; the dashed amber overlay is the rating on the right axis. Boring is good — sudden swings stand out against an otherwise stable curve.

What merchants complain about

“Nous avons opté pour algolia, en pensant que le cout en vaudrait la peine. Quelle erreur, c'est un grouffre financier, qui en plus de bugger souvent, n'est pas du tout fonctionnel. SAV inexistant en plus, ou ils vous facturent toutes demande. Je ne parle pas des produits non suivi tel les cartes cadeaux qui n'apparaissent pas dans la recherche, de mes produits bunddles également disparu. Traduction du moteur de recherche également complètement HS. Bref fuyez loin de cette application, vous trouverez de bien meilleur option à plus de 10 fois moins..”

Methodology

Where the numbers come from.

Ratings, review counts, pricing tiers, “Built for Shopify”, launch date, and category memberships come from the live Shopify App Store listing — refreshed daily by Ongoing.AI’s crawler. The review-count trajectory is the diff between today’s snapshot and snapshots from 7 and 28 days ago. Topic counts and sentiment come from the review corpus, topic-tagged with Claude. Install footprint is observed via Ongoing.AI’s tech-detection pass against actively-tracked Shopify storefronts. Catalog position is computed at snapshot time against every active app sharing the primary category. Snapshot generated yesterday.
