Geoa vs Shopify llms.txt apps — when is a free app enough?

If you just want a llms.txt file on your online shop, a free app will do the job — and we’re happy to say so. Geoa is for those of you who want to know whether it actually gets the AI to mention you.

Try Geoa for free View all comparisons

There are eight or more apps in the Shopify App Store that create a llms.txt file for your shop. Most are free or cost a few dollars a month; several have top ratings, and they do exactly what they promise. We can’t beat them on price, and we’re not trying to.

If you just want the file, get a free app. That’s the honest answer, and it’ll save you money. Geoa only makes sense if you want to know whether the file actually made the AI mention you.

Choose Shopify llms.txt apps if…

You have a Shopify shop, you’ve heard that llms.txt is a good idea, and you just want to get the file sorted without paying any extra.

Choose Geoa if…

You’ll want to know if it worked: are you now mentioned in ChatGPT and Perplexity, how do you compare with your competitors, and what needs to be addressed next.

Shopify llms.txt apps

$0–15/md

  • Free or just a few dollars a month — we can’t be beaten on price
  • Most people just generate the file — they don’t measure the impact
  • Only Shopify — does not cover WordPress, Umbraco or other CMSs
  • llms.txt alone does not determine whether AI mentions you
  • No comparison with competitors, local SEO or the Danish market

llms.txt is one signal out of fourteen

A llms.txt file tells AI crawlers which content on your site is important. This makes your content easier for a machine to read, and it’s a sensible thing to have. However, it does not in itself determine whether AI will mention you.

Whether you are cited also depends on schema markup, where the citable content is written, E-E-A-T signals, whether others online mention you, and your local presence. Geoa measures fourteen dimensions and prioritises what matters most to your specific shop. llms.txt is one of them — and Auto Fix generates it, just as the apps do.

The difference lies in the measurement, not the file

Most of the apps generate the file and leave it at that. They don’t tell you whether ChatGPT started mentioning your shop, how you’re performing compared to your competitors, or what happened after the update.

That is Geoass entire raison d’être. We run ongoing scans across five AI surfaces, show how things have developed over time and document the before-and-after results, so you can see what the correction achieved. If you pay €39 a month instead of zero, it is that knowledge you’re paying for — not the file.

An app only supports one shop on one platform

Shopify apps work on Shopify. If you also have a WordPress site, a Umbraco site or a separate domain for your B2B sales, the app won’t work there.

Geoa works with Shopify, WordPress with WooCommerce and Umbraco, and GEO itself. The Score and AI metrics work on any domain — even without a plugin. If you only have one Shopify shop and have no plans to expand, this isn’t an issue. If you have multiple sites, it’s crucial.

The Danish team

None of the apps are familiar with the Danish market. They do not provide any industry benchmarks based on CVR data, so you can’t see how you compare with other Danish shops in your sector, and they do not cover Google Business Profile or local visibility.

For an online-only shop with no physical presence, this matters less. For the many Danish businesses where customers also search locally, it plays a major role in whether AI even picks you up at all — and that’s part of Geoa right from the off.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I choose a free llms.txt app or a Geoa one?
Honest answer: if you have a Shopify shop and just want a llms.txt file, then use one of the free apps — they do what they promise, and you’ll save money. Geoa makes sense when you want to know IF the file works: are you mentioned in ChatGPT and Perplexity, where do you stand compared to your competitors, and what needs to be sorted out next?
What exactly is llms.txt?
A text file on your domain that tells AI crawlers which content on the site is important. It makes your content easier for AI to read — but it is just one signal amongst many, not a guarantee that your site will be featured.
Is llms.txt enough to be included in the ChatGPT answer?
No. llms.txt is one of 15 dimensions in the GEO Score. Whether AI mentions you also depends on schema markup, the citability of your content, E-E-A-T signals, mentions elsewhere on the web and your local presence. That’s why Geoa measures all 15 and prioritises what matters most to your shop.
Can the Geoa do the same as the llms.txt apps?
Yes — Auto Fix inserts llms.txt, robots.txt and the schema directly into your site, and detects if a theme update overwrites the fix. The difference is that Geoa then measures whether it affected your visibility in the AI responses.
Will Geoa work if I don’t use Shopify?
Yes. Geoa is live on Shopify, WordPress/WooCommerce and Umbraco, and the GEO Score + AI metric works on any domain — even without the plugin. Shopify apps can only help Shopify shops.
