AI Assistants (Claude and others)

Connect an AI assistant such as Claude to QueryCatch so it can read your search, analytics and SEO data and, if you allow it, improve your site's content for you.

AI Assistants You can connect an AI assistant, such as Claude, to QueryCatch. Your assistant can then answer questions using your QueryCatch data ("which pages lost the most clicks this month?", "which products have no description?") and, if a profile admin allows it, make SEO improvements on your connected website or store, such as writing image alt text or meta descriptions. Every change is recorded and can be undone. AI assistant access is being rolled out gradually. If you don't see the AI assistants tab in Profile settings (or, in QueryCatch inside Shopify, the AI assistants section in Settings), it isn't available for your account yet. Turn it on for a profile Go to Profile settings → AI assistants. Only a profile admin can change the switches.. Switch on 'Allow AI assistant access'. Members of the profile can now connect an assistant and read this profile's data through it.. Optionally, switch on 'Allow AI assistants to make changes'. Only then can an admin's assistant change your connected website or store. While it is off, assistants can only read.. Once access is on, the address to connect to appears under the switches. Copy it. Connect your assistant In your assistant, add a custom connector (in Claude: Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector) and paste the address you copied.. Your assistant opens a QueryCatch page. Sign in if asked, read what the assistant will be able to do, and click Allow.. Ask your assistant something about your site. If more than one of your profiles has AI assistant access switched on, it will ask which one to use. Using ChatGPT, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or another AI tool? See 'ChatGPT and other AI tools' in the documentation for the steps in each. The consent page shows the assistant's name as unverified and the address it will return to. Only allow assistants you trust and that you started connecting yourself, just now. Using QueryCatch inside Shopify If you use QueryCatch as an app in your Shopify admin, you don't have a querycatch.com password. You connect an assistant to your store instead, and approve it inside Shopify. In your Shopify admin, open QueryCatch → Settings → AI assistants and switch on 'Allow AI assistant access'. Copy the address shown under 'How to connect'.. In your assistant, add a custom connector with that address.. When the assistant opens the QueryCatch sign-in page, choose 'Inside Shopify' and enter your store's myshopify.com address. You are taken to your Shopify admin.. Read what the assistant will be able to do and click Allow. You are sent back to your assistant. The connection belongs to the store, not only to you. Any staff member who can open QueryCatch in your Shopify admin can see it, revoke it, undo its changes and switch AI assistant access off under Settings → AI assistants. To approve a connection or switch access on, your Shopify staff account needs permission to manage products and online store content. Uninstalling QueryCatch from your store ends every assistant connection and switches AI assistant access off. If your store is also connected to a QueryCatch profile on querycatch.com, the two share one set of AI assistant switches: changing them in either place changes both. If the store is later disconnected from that profile, AI assistant access for the store starts off again. What your assistant can do Read Google Search Console data: performance over time, top queries and pages, a query's trend, and sitemaps.. Read Google Analytics data: traffic overview, sessions by source, and event breakdowns.. See which integrations are connected.. Check the structured data (schema.org markup) on a page of your own site, and build Organization or Shopify Product markup for you to add to your theme. QueryCatch never edits your theme itself.. Find images without alt text, and pages, products and collections whose meta titles, meta descriptions or descriptions need work, with the rules from your brand guidelines.. Read your saved site audits: H1 headings, broken links, orphan pages, structured data, the SEO report, page scores from the QueryCatch analyser, and your saved keyword lists.. Read your saved reports from Intelligence → Reports: list them, and read one's headline figures, traffic, Google search, Google Ads and enquiries figures with their change, top channels, pages and searches, notes, or a technical snapshot's checks and actions. It reads the saved figures and doesn't make new reports. This isn't available when connected through the Shopify app.. With 'Allow AI assistants to make changes' on, and only for profile admins: add alt text to images that have none, set meta titles and descriptions (WordPress with Yoast, and Shopify), and set Shopify product and collection descriptions and collection fields. It can also change your brand voice guidelines in QueryCatch (tone, writing style, dos and don'ts, notes and the meta title suffix), which QueryCatch's own AI features follow. And it can create blog post drafts on your connected site or store, and edit Shopify drafts that aren't published yet; drafts stay unpublished until someone publishes them. For a Shopify store with IndexNow set up, it can switch automatic submission on or off and ask search engines to recrawl pages now.. For profile admins: save blog topic outlines in QueryCatch for your team to write from. Start a storefront audit or refresh your keyword lists (Shopify stores), or run a PageSpeed test of your profile's website. These replace results saved in QueryCatch and change nothing on your website. Each has a daily limit. What your assistant cannot do Read data from a profile you don't belong to, or from one where an admin hasn't switched on AI assistant access. (It can see the names of all the profiles you belong to, so you can choose one.). Sign in to QueryCatch as you, or change billing, team members or connected integrations.. See your password or your connected Google, Shopify or WordPress credentials.. Publish blog posts or change page addresses.. Overwrite something a person has changed since the assistant last looked at it: it re-checks every item just before changing it. See and undo changes Profile admins can see the changes assistants made under Profile settings → AI assistants → AI changes (the 200 most recent): what changed, the old and new value, who asked for it and through which assistant. Undo puts the previous value back, but only if nobody has changed it since. Undoing a change needs an active plan. Change records are kept for 12 months. An assistant does what you ask, and can make changes you agreed to that turn out to be poor ones. Review its suggestions before you approve them, and use Undo if something isn't right. Disconnect To disconnect one assistant: Profile settings → AI assistants → Your connections → Revoke. It loses access straight away. You can also remove the connector in the assistant.. To stop all assistants using a profile: switch off 'Allow AI assistant access' for that profile. It takes effect on their next request.. If you leave a profile, or your role changes, assistants you connected lose that access on their next request. Your data When your assistant asks QueryCatch for data, QueryCatch sends only what that request needs, for profiles you can access, to the assistant you connected. From then on, that data is handled by your assistant's provider under your agreement with them. QueryCatch keeps a record of changes an assistant made (12 months) and of the connections you approved, and its server logs record which tools were used and when, without the content. See our Privacy Policy for details. Requirements An active QueryCatch plan for the profile (for everything except listing your profiles and connections). For a store using QueryCatch inside Shopify, that is its QueryCatch plan in Shopify, and the assistant can use only the tools that plan includes.. An AI assistant that supports custom connectors (the Model Context Protocol), such as Claude.. For reading: the integrations the data comes from, such as Google Search Console or Google Analytics.. For changes: a connected WordPress site (with Yoast for meta titles and descriptions) or Shopify store.
