Avada AEO Optimizer publishes llms.txt, llms-full.txt and agents.md files on a Shopify store and keeps them in step with the catalog, adds Markdown copies of pages and counts visits from AI assistants. It's free, but only during a launch phase, and it prepares files for AI bots without tracking whether AI answers mention the store. - **Value for money: A.** Free during the launch phase, with every feature included. Avada says core features will stay free if paid options arrive later. - **Free plan and trial: A.** Everything is free right now, with no cap on files, pages or languages listed. The catch is that free is stated as a launch price. - **Features: C.** llms.txt, llms-full.txt and agents.md, AI bot access control, Markdown pages, a 16-signal product audit and AI referral counts. It does AI-file work fully, but that's a smaller job, with no answer tracking, meta tags or redirects. - **Ease of use: B.** No rating on record, but the files are generated and updated after each change in Shopify. Referral tracking does need the app's theme embed switched on. - **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only, inside the Shopify admin, with Avada SEO Suite and Shopify Markets the connections listed; ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity and DeepSeek are bots it lets in, not links. No phone or desktop app. These are ToolGPA's own grades. Graded from this listing, whose facts were read from Avada's own docs and its Shopify App Store listing on 23 October 2026.
