What Gets Optimized

A full breakdown of every change Dropshipping Product Optimizer can make to a product. All of this is configurable per store from the Settings tab.

AI Copy

Title, SEO title, meta description, intro paragraph, benefit bullets, and a spec list - generated per product, per your store’s writing rules and vertical.

Brand Handling

Brand names are extracted and checked against your allowlist, then forced ALL-CAPS everywhere. Non-allowlisted brands are scrubbed before the AI ever sees the text.

Variant Cleanup

Option names and values are translated, the "Ships From" option is removed, single-value options are dropped, and variants are sorted with natural, size-aware ordering.

Opaque Code Identification

An AI vision pass looks at your product images to turn opaque supplier codes like "A-3PC" into a real, readable label.

Price Rounding

Every variant price rounds up to the next .99, applied consistently across your whole catalog.

Dropship Scrubbing

Removes tags and image alt text that mention China, mainland, dropshipping, AliExpress, or CN. A value that is entirely a tell is blanked; a comma-separated list loses only the offending tokens.

Search Engine Listing

Meta title, meta description, and URL handle are written for a searcher, not copied from the supplier: keyword-first titles under 60 characters, 140–160 character descriptions, and short 3–6 word slugs.

URL Handle Rewrite

Off by default. When enabled, rewrites a live product’s handle in place - Shopify adds a redirect from the old URL so links and search ranking carry over.

Duplicate Variant Merging

When a product ends up with duplicate variants after cleanup, they’re merged away automatically - the diff flags exactly how many were merged before you approve.

Measurement Conversion

Choose whether copy keeps the supplier’s original units, leads with metric and shows imperial in brackets, or the reverse.

Most of this is optional

Price rounding, removing “Ships From,” removing single-value options, opaque code identification, and variant label cleanup can each be switched off individually in Pipeline Options. You don’t have to accept every part of the pipeline to use the rest of it.

Shopify-Safe Output

Generated content is written to fit Shopify cleanly, not just to look right in a preview:

  • Descriptions use only the <p>, <h3>, <ul>, <li> subset that survives Shopify’s rich-text editor and renders correctly in any theme
  • All model-generated text is HTML-escaped
  • Empty sections are omitted rather than left as blank headings
  • Title, SEO title, and SEO description are clamped to Shopify’s 255 / 70 / 320 character limits

The description’s section order and headings aren’t fixed either - your description layout is a per-store template, so you’re never locked into the built-in structure.

Which AI Powers This

Every optimization runs on AI provided by Dropshipping Product Optimizer - you never need to supply or manage your own API key. This is what the per-product charge on your plan pays for. See Plans & Billing for pricing.

See it before it's applied

Every one of these changes is generated as a preview first, and you can hand-edit any AI-written field before approving. See Reviewing & Approving for how to review a diff - and edit proposed copy - before anything is written to your catalog.
