Standard "Retail" lists are 95% inactive Shopify trials and low-volume dropshippers. Our AI agents verify GMV estimates, tech stack maturity, and ad spend to find verified DTC Brands, Enterprise Merchants, and Headless Stores.
Why platform filters fail for merchant sales.
Targeting "Shopify Stores" gives you 2 million results, but only 5% have real revenue. If you sell 3PL services, marketing automation, or financing, you need the volume sellers.
You need to filter out the side-hustles and find the High-GMV Brands with active ad campaigns.

In E-commerce, the "Tech Stack" defines the scale. A brand using Shopify Plus with Klaviyo and Yotpo is generating significant revenue and has budget for optimization.
We extract these "Stack Signals" to help you find the brands ready to scale.
If you sell UGC (User Generated Content) tools, filter for brands with >1,000 Reviews but low Photo/Video count in reviews.
Pitch: "Turn your happy text reviews into visual social proof. Our tool automates photo collection from your existing customers..."
We distinguish between companies that sell products and companies that sell courses.
This ensures you pitch to operational brands, not "get rich quick" schemes.
