Run GMC health scans on all your clients in one place

API access to the Useful Patch Google Merchant Center scanner. Bulk scan client sites, generate structured audit reports, and catch suspension risk before it becomes a problem.

Cancel any time. API key delivered within 24 hours of payment.

Manual GMC checks don't scale past a handful of clients

When you're managing GMC for 10+ clients, checking feed health, trust signal coverage, and suspension risk manually takes hours every week. Most agencies catch issues after Google does.

🔍

Suspension risk before it fires

The scanner checks 40+ signals that precede misrepresentation and account-level enforcement. Catch weak spots in trust pages, feed accuracy, and business identity consistency early.

📋

Structured output for every client

Each scan returns a JSON report with a risk score, issue list, and plain-English remediation notes. Feed it into your own reporting stack or pull it into a client dashboard.

Runs in seconds

POST a domain and email, get a full scan result back. No browser session, no manual review. Works for any Shopify, WooCommerce, or custom ecommerce store.


Four steps from signup to running scans

1

Subscribe and get your API key

After payment, you receive an API key via email within 24 hours. The key is tied to your agency account and rate-limited to 100 scans/month on the base plan.

2

POST a client domain to the scan endpoint

Send a simple JSON request with the client's domain and your API key. The scanner checks the site live against 40+ GMC health signals.

3

Receive a structured JSON report

The response includes a risk score (0-100), a categorised issue list, and remediation notes for each finding. Plug it into your workflow or export to PDF.

4

Re-scan after fixes to verify improvement

Re-running the scan after remediation lets you show clients measurable risk reduction before they submit a review request to Google.

Common questions

What format does the API response come in?

JSON. The response includes a numeric risk score, an array of categorised issues (each with a severity, description, and plain-English fix note), and a summary string. Full schema documentation is included in the onboarding email.

Does this work for suspended accounts or only active ones?

The scanner checks the site itself, not the GMC account status. It works for suspended domains too. Useful for pre-appeal audit to identify what Google is likely reviewing before you submit a reinstatement request.

Can I white-label the reports for clients?

The JSON output is yours to use however you like. Build it into your own branded client reports or dashboard. There is no Useful Patch branding in the API response.

What if I need more than 100 scans/month?

Email usefulpatch@proton.me and we can discuss a higher volume plan. Larger agencies managing 50+ clients typically need 200-500 scans/month.

Is there a free trial?

The free GMC scan at useful-patch.com/merchant-center-free-scan/ runs the same scanner with results shown in the browser. Test it on a client site before subscribing to the API.
