## Use cases

- [For brand teams](https://brandloupe.com/for/brands/): Follow any Shopify competitor and get its new products, price drops, discounts, best-seller moves, new apps and new Meta ads in one weekly feed, each change dated.
- [For agencies and freelancers](https://brandloupe.com/for/agencies/): Filter live Shopify stores by niche, country, traffic and stack, including what they don't run: no Meta Pixel, no reviews app, no email platform. Then pitch with proof from their own storefront.
- [For app and SaaS makers](https://brandloupe.com/for/app-developers/): We detect the apps, themes and pixels on every live Shopify store and compare them week to week, so you see who adopts your app, who leaves for a competitor, and who runs nothing in your category yet.
- [For operators and dropshippers](https://brandloupe.com/for/ecommerce-operators/): See the same product appear on more stores, climb best-seller lists and get discounted, week by week, with the stores that sold it first.
