Sample audit · real scan data · store anonymized · dollar columns blank on purpose
App Stack Audit: an apparel DTC brand
This is the actual shape of the deliverable, built from a real August 2026 storefront scan.
The store's name is withheld because they are not a client. Every dollar column is blank
because those numbers come only from a merchant's own billing screenshot, never from guesses.
1 · What the scan found on the storefront
| App | Job it does | How we know |
| Attentive | SMS | loads on the public storefront |
| Klaviyo | email + SMS | loads on the public storefront |
| Gorgias | helpdesk | loads on the public storefront |
| Yotpo | reviews + loyalty | loads on the public storefront |
2 · Overlap analysis
SMS: Attentive and Klaviyo both load, and both send SMS.
Two vendors billing for one channel is the most common leak we see. The audit question is not
"which is better" in the abstract; it is which one drove revenue in the last 30 days at this store,
what each costs at this volume, and which contract renews first.
3 · Verdicts (what the paid audit fills in)
| App | Monthly | Verdict | Reasoning |
| Klaviyo | $ from billing | KEEP |
example verdict: carries email, and can absorb the SMS job if the numbers support it |
| Attentive | $ from billing | CONSOLIDATE? |
example verdict: decided by revenue attribution and contract dates, not by opinion |
| Gorgias | $ from billing | pending usage data |
unique job; the audit checks activity and ownership, not just presence |
| Yotpo | $ from billing | pending usage data |
unique job; same check |
In a real audit, every verdict cites the merchant's own numbers. If the data
says both SMS tools earn their keep, the verdict is KEEP on both, and that is stated plainly.
Fewer than three evidence-backed decisions across the whole stack means the second half of the
fee is waived.
4 · The teardown order (skeleton)
| Week | Action | Risk checked first |
| 1 | export data, confirm nothing scheduled on the app being cut | in-flight campaigns, active loyalty points |
| 2 | cancel or downgrade | refund window, annual-contract renewal dates |
| 3 | verify the surviving app covers the job | deliverability, flows re-pointed, tracking intact |

and you get a three-finding teardown back, usually same day. The full audit is $500 flat
($850 for complex stacks), 50% to start, second half waived if it cannot produce at least
three evidence-backed decisions.
