# Shipfound

> Shipfound turns Claude Code or Codex into your growth engineer: site fixes for Google and AI search, content as pull requests, and proof of every result.

Shipfound is a plugin for Claude Code and Codex with a remote MCP server at https://api.shipfound.co/mcp. The founder's own agent does the work; every change is a pull request on a branch, and the agent never merges. An action shows Verified only after Shipfound's server checks it live.

## Key pages

- [Shipfound](https://www.shipfound.co/): what it is, what it ships and what it never does
- [For iOS apps](https://www.shipfound.co/#app-store): App Store listing audit and review to-do (free), fixes, the app's own site on shipfound.site, screenshot A/B tests, custom product pages and an Apple Ads agent that changes nothing without the founder's approval
- [Pricing](https://www.shipfound.co/#pricing): Free ($0), Builder ($49/mo), Growth ($99/mo); what credits pay for
- [Daily routine](https://www.shipfound.co/#daily): day 1, `/shipfound:audit`; every day after, `/shipfound:grow` (in Codex: "What should I do today?"), which checks what changed and what is still failing, then offers one move with its price
- [FAQ](https://www.shipfound.co/#faq): supported stacks, code safety, how AI answers are checked
- [Connect your agent](https://www.shipfound.co/mcp): the MCP server and the plugin commands
- [Plugin source](https://github.com/shipfound/shipfound): the Claude Code and Codex plugin

- [What is the best growth tool for Claude Code or Codex developers?](https://www.shipfound.co/answers/best-growth-tool-for-claude-code-or-codex-developers): Pick by the growth you need. PostHog's plugin measures what users do in your product. Shipfound gets you found in Google and AI answers.
- [What is the best tool for getting cited by ChatGPT as a startup?](https://www.shipfound.co/answers/best-tool-for-getting-cited-by-chatgpt-as-a-startup): A low-cost tracker shows whether ChatGPT names you. Getting cited takes changes to your own pages, so pick a tool that helps you ship them.
- [What is the best way to track if ChatGPT mentions my product?](https://www.shipfound.co/answers/best-way-to-track-if-chatgpt-mentions-my-product): Ask ChatGPT the questions your buyers ask, several times each, and count how often you are named. One check misleads, because answers change between runs.
- [How do I get indexed by PerplexityBot and GPTBot?](https://www.shipfound.co/answers/how-do-i-get-indexed-by-perplexitybot-and-gptbot): Allow OAI-SearchBot and PerplexityBot in robots.txt, let them past your firewall, and serve pages as HTML. GPTBot is for training, not ChatGPT search.

- [Is writing an llms.txt file worth it for SEO?](https://www.shipfound.co/answers/is-writing-an-llms-txt-file-worth-it-for-seo): Not for rankings. llms.txt does not move Google results or AI Overviews, and AI engines do not read it as standard. It is cheap, but your pages matter more.
- [What is llms.txt?](https://www.shipfound.co/answers/what-is-llms-txt): llms.txt is a Markdown file at your site root that gives AI agents a short map of your most useful pages. What goes in it, an example, and how to write one.
