Axion vs Actuity

Where Actuity is better
- It's live today. You can scan a site right now without signing up.
- It works on any website, not just Shopify.
- It has a CLI and an MCP server for developers.
Where Axion is better
- Every check is written for how Shopify actually works: variants, metafields, review apps and theme scripts.
- Fixes point at the Shopify setting, Sidekick prompt or theme file to change, not generic web advice.
- Agent runs are shopping tasks: find the product, pick the variant, check shipping, reach checkout.
