How is this different from the AI Strategy Session?
The Strategy Session ($500, 90 min) is broad AI strategy across your business — covers multiple decisions at once and produces a directional roadmap. The Multi-Platform Sync Audit ($700+, 7–10 days) is laser-focused on ONE specific question: should you commit to a unified multi-platform AI build? It quantifies the dollar value of fragmentation, scores your coordination across platforms, and produces a build vs no-build recommendation backed by specific numbers. If your decision is 'should I commit to a $5K–$8K Multi-Platform Sync build?', this audit is the right service. If your decision is broader, start with the Strategy Session.
How is this different from the Agentic Commerce Readiness Audit?
Different focus. The Readiness Audit assesses how visible your store is to AI shopping agents (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini). The Sync Audit assesses how well your AI tools coordinate ACROSS your selling platforms. Both can be relevant for the same business but they address different problems. Some clients run both — sync audit reveals platform coordination value (~$50K–$300K), readiness audit reveals AI shopping visibility value (~$30K–$500K). They are complementary, not overlapping.
What does the audit cost and what affects the price?
Starting from $700 for 2-platform audits (Shopify + Amazon being most common). Typical engagements: $900–$1,200 for 3–4 platform audits. Premium engagements: $1,400–$1,500 for 5+ platform audits or portfolio audits covering multiple brands. Agency portfolio audits ($2,000–$2,500) cover 5–10 client brands in one engagement.
Will the audit honestly tell me NOT to build a sync if my fragmentation is low?
Yes. Roughly 25% of audits recommend AGAINST a full Sync build because the fragmentation cost does not justify the build expense. Common scenarios: brands operating on only 2 platforms with already-coordinated workflows, brands with low cross-platform overlap (different products per platform), brands where partial sync ($1,800–$3,000) delivers most of the value without the full build. The audit gives you data to make the right call — including 'no build' when that is right.
How long does the audit take?
7–10 business days from start to delivered report. Day 1: kickoff call and quote confirmation. Days 2–5: stack and workflow audit. Days 5–8: coordination gap analysis and competitor benchmarking. Days 8–10: report writing, internal review, and delivery. Walkthrough call scheduled within 5 business days of report delivery.
What platforms can the audit cover?
Strong coverage: Shopify, Amazon (all marketplaces), Etsy, Pinterest, Reddit, eBay, Walmart Marketplace, TikTok Shop, BigCommerce, WooCommerce. Partial coverage: Instagram Shopping, Facebook Marketplace, headless commerce platforms (audit possible but requires custom data access). Most multi-platform brands operate on 3–5 of the above; the audit handles any combination.
What if my team is small and we have not really integrated across platforms yet?
Likely fit for a Strategy Session ($500) rather than this audit. The Multi-Platform Sync Audit is most valuable when you already have real cross-platform operations running and want to quantify what fragmentation is costing you. For brands still building out their multi-platform presence, the broader Strategy Session typically delivers better ROI because the decisions you face are different (which platforms to prioritize, when to add each, etc.).
