Features

Eight features,
zero manual work

Everything you need to do programmatic SEO on Shopify: from keyword suggestions to publishing, without ever duplicating your content. Here's everything Octopus does for you — read the guide.

01

Suggested keywords or CSV

Octopus suggests keywords from your catalog, or takes your list as a CSV. It creates one page per query and works in the background: you can close the tab — it keeps going.

02

Two modes

Product collections or editorial content (guides, comparisons), depending on each keyword's intent.

03

Anti-cannibalization

Before each creation, Octopus checks no near-duplicate page already exists. Zero duplicates published.

04

Clear statuses

Published, Insufficient, Cannibalization, Queued. A strict color code, readable at a glance.

05

Direct publishing

Pages are created in your Shopify with slug, metadata and internal links — ready to be indexed by Google.

06

Job progress

Every import job shows completed / total and a breakdown of insufficient queries to enrich.

07

HTML sitemap

Octopus generates an HTML sitemap linking all your pages — Google's crawlers find and index them faster.

08

301 redirects

Delete a generated page? Octopus offers a 301 redirect to the destination of your choice — pre-checked. No broken links, no lost SEO equity.

Generation

Two modes,
one SEO discipline

Mode A

Product

Octopus groups the relevant products from your catalog into native Shopify collections — one per query. A semantic relevance filter weeds out full-text false positives. No API key required, available from the Free plan.

  • Automatic product collections
  • Semantic relevance filter
  • Generated titles, meta & slug — no API key
Mode B

Editorial

For guides and comparisons: a RAG engine automatically picks between Aggregation (curation of your articles, no AI), Hybrid (AI intro + curation) and Generation (full article written by Claude). Aggregation works without a key; AI writing uses your own Anthropic key, no markup.

  • Aggregation, Hybrid or Generation
  • AI writing: your Anthropic key, no markup
  • From the Starter plan

One level up

Beyond
programmatic SEO

Three details that separate a generated page from one worth indexing.

Variant-level pages

For a keyword like "red summer dress", Octopus can include only the red variants — the page shows the right products with the right images, not whole products with default photos.

Growth and Scale plans · requires a theme that renders variant-level collections

Your manual edits are never overwritten

Octopus manages its own product selection through Shopify's new collection model. Add or remove products by hand — the sync never overwrites your choices.

Synced every day

Your collections stay in sync with your catalog: new products added, non-matching ones removed — automatically, every day.

Every pass is visible in the app: the "Page maintenance" card shows 30 days of products added, removed and checks run — even when everything was already up to date.

Control

Four statuses,
zero ambiguity

Every generated page carries a clear status. You always know what's live, what's queued, and what needs enriching.

Published

The page is validated and published in your Shopify, ready to be indexed by Google.

Insufficient

Not enough products or data for a quality page. To enrich, merge or block.

Cannibalization

A near-duplicate page already exists. Octopus stops before diluting your ranking.

Queued

The query is queued. Batch generation will process it automatically, in the background.
