    What merchants complain about

    The application works well with Wordpress, I haven't tested others. However, along with the imported articles, there is a script at the beginning and end of each article. I'd like to remove them or make sure that these scripts don't come with the articles when they're imported. How can this be resolved?

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 .
