You don't have a catalog problem. You have a coverage problem.

Right now, somewhere on your store, a photo shows pockets while the description says none. 

A midi dress is labeled full length. A price reads one thing on the page and another in the cart. Across thousands of SKUs and variants, no team can browse every page before customers do.

Zenyt's AI shopper agents review your entire store the way a customer would, checking every title, spec, image, and price against your source of truth, continuously. Then they rank what is costing you the most first.

  • New York & Company identified 500+ findings before BFCM and uncovered $100K–$300K in potential revenue.
  • Caudalie generated €700K in incremental revenue within 12 weeks.
  • LG protected $900K in EBITDA and saved 2,100 working hours.

Your catalog changes every day between now and Black Friday. Get your free store analysis before peak traffic finds the gaps first.


πŸ“ Trade a Trial Extension for a Review

Three days before a trial ran out, a tool being tested offered two extra weeks in exchange for a single review. It turned out to be a smart move, and the reasoning behind it applies to almost any product.

Steps to Turn Trial Extensions into Reviews:

1️⃣ Buy More Time in the Product
Two extra weeks means two more weeks of data piling up in the account, which makes the product more useful the longer it runs. For any tool that improves with usage, extending a trial is a low cost way to help users experience its real value before deciding.

2️⃣ Let the Offer Self Select
Every trial extension buys more time, but this one adds a filter too. The people who want two more weeks are the people already getting value from the product, which means the reviews collected come from users most likely to leave a genuinely good one.

3️⃣ Use the Small Ask to Set Up the Big One
This taps into a concept psychologists call foot in the door, where agreeing to a small request makes people more likely to agree to a bigger one later. Writing a review is the small yes. Paying for the product is the bigger ask that follows.

4️⃣ Check the Rules Before Sending the Offer
Rewarding a review works fine on your own site, but many third party review platforms do not allow incentives in exchange for reviews. The reward should also never be tied to leaving a positive review specifically.

The Takeaway
A trial extension in exchange for a review is a low cost way to gather better data, better proof, and better conversions, as long as it is offered fairly and within platform rules.


πŸ“ Automate Your Workflows with Gemini Spark 

Gemini Spark is being called one of the most powerful AI tools available right now. There is no laptop that needs to stay on, no complicated configuration, and no struggle to connect different tools. Think of it as a cloud based automation assistant that is easy to set up and even easier to run.

Steps to Get Started with Gemini Spark:

1️⃣ Describe a Task to Begin
Open Gemini Spark and simply describe the task you want done. From exporting invoices to generating documents from a template, the tool takes your instructions and gets to work automatically.

2️⃣ Let It Connect to Your Existing Tools
Gmail, Drive, Docs, Keep, and other everyday tools are natively connected, so there is no manual setup required to get Gemini Spark working across the apps you already use.

3️⃣ Add Your Own MCPs
Beyond the native integrations, you can connect your own MCPs, which means the automation is not limited to what comes built in. This makes Gemini Spark flexible enough to fit into workflows that already exist.

4️⃣ Explore Trending Use Cases
From decluttering an inbox to doing a deep dive on a topic, Gemini Spark suggests trending tasks so you can see what is possible before building your own custom automation.

The Takeaway
Even while still in beta, Gemini Spark has already automated a large share of everyday workflows for early users. With native connections to common tools and the flexibility to add custom MCPs, it offers a cloud based way to run tasks without the usual setup friction. If you have been looking for a simpler way to automate your day, this is worth testing early.
