FAQ

Common questions about Scouty for Shopify.

Do I need to remove Shopify Search & Discovery?

No. Scouty is designed to coexist with Search & Discovery. Most stores keep filters and merchandising rules in Shopify and use Scouty as the discovery and recovery layer on top.

Does Scouty work on Shopify Plus?

Yes. Scouty supports Shopify and Shopify Plus, including multi-store and multi-market deployments.

Does Scouty work on Hydrogen / headless Shopify?

Yes. The Headless API supports Hydrogen and any custom Shopify storefront. The merchant dashboard works alongside the API.

Does Scouty index Shopify metafields?

Yes. Custom metafields can be indexed and surfaced as filters, search attributes, or AI retrieval signals.

How fast does the index update after a product changes?

Catalog updates flow through Shopify webhooks. Most catalogs see updates propagate within a minute; very large catalogs are batched and may take longer.
