FAQ

SOptim Bot Protection — frequently asked questions.

What is SOptim Bot Protection on Shopify?
SOptim Bot Protection is a Shopify app in the Fraud category. SOptim protects your Shopify store at two layers. Bot Shield runs at the checkout layer, so card testing, fake signups, and chargeback fraud are stopped before reaching your payment processor. The store audit examines storefront speed, installed app costs, and bot traffic, producing a downloadable report you can share with your team. A cross-shop reputation network flags addresses already blocked by other SOptim merchants. Auto-Pilot handles scoring; custom rules give manual control.

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 .
