Nexis CRO has no track record at all.
Shopify merchants who already care about being cited in ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity, and who want the audit, the schema deployment, the llms.txt file and the citation tracking in one app instead of stitching them together..
you already run a mature SEO app, you want proven tooling rather than a new one, or AI-chat visibility is not yet a business question for your store.

Lowest paid entry price per account a month, billed monthly, in USD, among the 59 e-commerce growth apps we have researched (read between 2026-08-19 and 2026-10-28). Only tools priced in the same unit and on the same billing are compared — not a market survey, and cheapest is not best.
Free, then Pro $9 a month or $99 a year, Growth $21 or $121, and Agency $44 or $344. All charges are in USD and recur every 30 days, and the paid tiers carry a 2-day free trial — short for judging a tool whose whole promise is a change in how AI engines see you. The meter is AI credits: Free gives 5 a month and a single audit, Pro 100 with unlimited audits and history, Growth 300, Agency 500.
Read Agency's “500 AI credits (unlimited usage)” against that number rather than past it: the credits are the ceiling. The yearly discounts the vendor advertises do hold up when you check them — 8% on Pro, 52% on Growth, 35% on Agency. Re-read on 28 October 2026 with a plain fetch: the Shopify listing is unchanged (Free; Pro $9 or $99 a year; Growth $21 or $121; Agency $44 or $344; 2-day trial on paid plans; charges in USD every 30 days) and still shows no reviews. nexiscro.com repeats those prices and states Agency as $29 a month billed yearly.
Its llms.txt file, which AI assistants read, still lists Pro $29, Growth $59 and Agency $149; billing runs through Shopify, so the plan card on the approval screen is the number to check. The site's comparison table fills in the meters: AI Rank Tracker checks per 30 days are 5 on Free (1 prompt), 150 on Pro (5 prompts), 1,200 on Growth (20 prompts) and 5,000 on Agency (50 prompts); the AI FAQ Generator covers 3 products on Free, 50 on Pro and unlimited above; a Deep Scan audit costs up to 2 credits and a Full Report 3. Plans change — always verify the live price on their site.
Category context: E-commerce. Across the 49 tools in this category that we researched with a public US-dollar price, the median entry price is $19 a month (lowest paid plan as listed, per seat where the vendor prices per seat). Compare pricing conditions in the Software Cost Atlas →
We capture Nexis CRO’s own pricing page every month and keep the figures, so this is our record of the page — not a forecast, and not someone else’s summary.
Two dated readings, no movement. On 14 September and 3 October 2026 the listing showed Free, then Pro $9 a month or $99 a year, Growth $21 or $121 and Agency $44 or $344, all in USD, with the same 5, 100, 300 and 500 AI credits, the same 2-day trial on paid plans and the same 0.0 rating from zero reviews. Re-read unchanged on 28 October 2026 on the listing, still 0 reviews; nexiscro.com's llms.txt carries a different, higher price list (Pro $29, Growth $59, Agency $149).

The app launched on 9 June 2026 and its App Store listing still showed a 0.0 rating from zero reviews when we read it on 14 September and again on 3 October 2026 — so every claim about what the audit catches, how good the AI rewrites are and whether the citation tracking is accurate rests on the vendor's own description. That matters more than usual here, because AEO tracking is a young field: nobody has yet shown that being cited by ChatGPT or Perplexity moves revenue, and the numbers a tracker reports are hard for a merchant to check independently.
The free tier is also thin — 5 AI credits and one audit a month is enough to see the interface, not to test the product. Who is behind it is thinly documented. The listing gives the developer as Nexis Cro with an address in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, the app is English-only, and nexiscro.com links a privacy policy but no terms of service or refund policy. The privacy policy (8 June 2026) names OpenAI as the processor for AI requests, using models such as GPT-4o-mini, so product and policy text you send through AI Quick Fix leaves Shopify for OpenAI.
The listing's data-access block asks for the store owner's name, email, phone number and address and for customer device and geolocation data. The vendor's own pages also disagree on price: the llms.txt file lists Pro at $29, Growth at $59 and Agency at $149, three times the listing's $9, $21 and $44. An AEO vendor whose own machine-readable file misstates its prices is a small but telling signal about how carefully the llms.txt it deploys to your store needs checking.
The video version of this review, from our YouTube channel.
Shopify app that runs a 34-check SEO and AEO audit across products, collections, pages and policies, rewrites the gaps with AI, deploys JSON-LD schema and an llms.txt file, and tracks whether ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity cite your store.

Hands-on: not tested by usReported by buyers: none found
Nothing, and we would rather say so than fill the space. We looked for independent user reviews of Nexis CRO on the buyer-review sites listed at the foot of this page, read in September 2026, and found none at all. That points to a young product rather than a badly reviewed one, but it does mean there is no crowd verdict to weigh: judge Nexis CRO on your own trial, not on anyone's score.
The step that matters is Pro to Growth, and only if you pay yearly. Pro yearly is $99 and Growth yearly is $121: $22 more for the whole year buys three times the AI credits (300 against 100), twenty tracked prompts instead of five, three AI models instead of one, plus citation-gap alerts and competitor benchmarking. That is the cheapest real upgrade on the page. The same step month to month is $9 against $21, which is a different proposition entirely — and Growth billed monthly costs $252 a year, more than double the $121 yearly rate for the identical plan.
So the honest advice is to decide the tier on the yearly column and ignore the monthly one unless you genuinely intend to cancel within a few months. Agency at $44 (or $344 a year) is a different product: it manages up to five child stores. If you run one shop, there is nothing above Growth to buy. Cost per rank check makes the yearly Growth case sharper. Pro yearly buys 150 checks a month, 1,800 a year for $99, about 5.5 cents a check.
Growth yearly buys 1,200 a month, 14,400 a year for $121, under 1 cent a check, with three AI models and daily scheduling. Agency yearly is 60,000 checks for $344, about 0.6 cents. If citation tracking is the reason you buy, Pro is the expensive way to do it.
Facts about Nexis CRO that would change a buying decision, and where we stand on each. An unanswered question does not mean the feature is missing; it means we have not confirmed it yet.

Run the free audit before you pay anything: it scores the whole store across 34 checks and hands you a prioritised fix list, which is enough to judge whether it is finding real problems or generic ones. Fix a handful by hand first and see whether the score moves for the right reason — the AI Quick Fix will rewrite meta tags and thin content in one click, and a tool that rewrites at scale is exactly the kind you want to watch closely at small scale first.
Note the audit cap: one a month on Free, so plan that single run for after you have made changes, not before. If you go on to track citations, write down where you stand on your key prompts on day one, because the tracker only tells you something once it has a baseline to compare against. And treat the 2-day trial on paid plans as a tour of the interface rather than a test of results.
Spend the Free plan's 5 credits deliberately. A Full Report costs 3 credits and a Deep Scan up to 2, so one of each uses the whole month; the single free audit is best run after you have fixed what you already know is wrong. For the AI Rank Tracker, the vendor's setup guide says to save brand and competitor aliases before the first check, since models rarely use a legal company name, and each check consumes one rank-check credit from the monthly quota.
On Free that is 5 manual checks per 30 days for one prompt; Pro schedules weekly checks, Growth and Agency daily. Spend the one free prompt on the highest-intent category question you currently lose, and record the result as your baseline.
Sources for this review
The Shopify App Store listing at apps.shopify.com/nexis-cro-ai-seo-aeo-audit, read 14 September 2026: the four pricing cards with their credit allowances and feature lists, the feature summary, the “Launched June 9, 2026” line and the rating block, which reads 0.0 from 0 reviews. The vendor's own site nexiscro.com publishes the same four tiers at the same prices. Listing re-read 3 October 2026 (served HTML): same four cards, credits, trial and yearly discounts; still 0.0 from 0 reviews; 'Launched June 9, 2026' unchanged.
Re-read on 28 October 2026 with a plain fetch: the Shopify listing (pricing cards, developer block, data-access list), nexiscro.com (plan comparison table, audit-depth credit costs, FAQ), nexiscro.com/llms.txt, the privacy policy (last updated 8 June 2026) and the vendor's own AI Rank Tracker setup guide. The vendor publishes no terms of service or refund policy on its site; billing and cancellation run through Shopify.
Free to start, then $9, $21 or $44 a month for Pro, Growth and Agency, billed in USD. What decides the real cost is the credit ceiling rather than the tier name: every plan meters AI credits, and Agency's advertised “500 AI credits (unlimited usage)” still stops at 500. Free hands you five of them and one audit a month, which is enough to look around and not enough to judge the product. Budget for the evaluation as well as the subscription, because the trial on the paid plans runs two days.
Here, unusually, yes — and it changes which tier you should buy. Growth costs $21 a month but $121 for a year, so billed monthly the same plan runs $252 a year, more than double. Against Pro's $99 a year, Growth yearly is $22 more for three times the AI credits (300 against 100), twenty tracked prompts instead of five, three AI models instead of one, plus citation-gap alerts and competitor benchmarking. Decide the tier on the yearly column unless you genuinely intend to cancel within a few months.
No. The app launched on 9 June 2026 and its App Store listing still showed 0.0 from zero reviews when we read it on 15 September and again on 3 October 2026, so every claim about what the 34-check audit catches, how good the AI rewrites are and whether the citation tracking is accurate rests on the vendor's own description. The free tier gives 5 AI credits and one audit a month — enough to see the interface, not to test the product — and the 2-day trial on paid plans is a tour rather than a test.
The Shopify listing (read 28 October 2026) names the developer Nexis Cro, based in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Its privacy policy (8 June 2026) says AI requests are processed by OpenAI with models such as GPT-4o-mini, and that uninstalling revokes API access and triggers Shopify's deletion webhooks.
Per 30 days: Free 5 checks on 1 prompt, Pro 150 on 5 prompts (weekly schedule), Growth 1,200 on 20 prompts with 3 AI models (daily), Agency 5,000 on 50 prompts (daily), per nexiscro.com's comparison table and setup guide read 28 October 2026. Each check uses one rank-check credit.
We do not know. On 28 October 2026 the llms.txt listed Pro $29, Growth $59 and Agency $149, while the Shopify listing and the site's pricing section showed $9, $21 and $44. Shopify bills the plan shown when you approve the charge, so check that screen.
