repeatability
A CSV is not a product.
Clean data on one side, a wall of bespoke ETL on the other — schema, DB, validation, and column mapping rebuilt from scratch for every single dataset.
Any agent can turn a CSV into a directory by dinner. Month six is the hard part — freshness, per-entity structured data, and a page set that stays worth indexing. ShipMore runs that half: on a schedule, across every property on one box, with an approval queue before anything ships.
Two live tenants · two domains · one engine
Every link looks survivable on its own. Follow what each one forces next and the afternoon that felt like a win becomes a property nobody is maintaining.
ShipMore is the layer after the build: a scheduled agent reads the GSC + Stripe brief, drafts the refreshes and the fixes, and waits at an approval queue — across every property on one box. see the loop →
Every operation exists at three layers — cli, mcp, and admin — so humans conduct and agents execute.
Same Payload collections, same search, same Stripe layer. The shape is a skin over a single economy.
Curated lists, local SEO, lead gen. Faceted search, a detail page per record with JSON-LD. The most legible, most demo-able proof of the system.
Like Crunchbase for your niche — a searchable database of records (companies, angels, datasets) behind a subscription. Semantic search, saved queries, CSV export.
Agent-to-agent data access. Rate-limited endpoints, auth and API keys built in, an OpenAPI spec out of the box.
Signal alerts, deal flow, market pulse. Subscribers pay for the stream of updates, not the snapshot. RSS, email, webhook — deduped and diffed.
Import, present and monetize — then the half nobody ships: freshness on a schedule, per-entity structured data, thin-page gating, and an approval queue between your agent and production.
The agent infers your schema, validates and imports it — then the same CLI re-runs the refresh on a schedule.
The pricing block fires live Stripe checkout. Wired transactional features — not styled divs.
Subscriptions, credits, one-offs and featured slots — every Stripe type, with the paywall and customer accounts (Better Auth, Google OAuth) included.
Faceted search and six layouts — grid, table, gallery, feed, map, compare — over your records.
Every collection is draft/publish with full version history. Your agent proposes, nothing reaches production unreviewed, and every change is revertable.
JSON-LD per record, not generic Article markup — plus meta, OG, sitemaps, and a compound taxonomy matrix with count-gating that keeps thin pages out of the index.
A --json CLI, MCP, and a SKILL.md in the open Agent Skills format — Claude Code, Codex, or Gemini CLI runs the whole box.
Unlimited branded properties on a single deployment — and one loop maintaining all of them. The next one launches for $0.
GSC and Stripe signals distilled to one action per niche — a sentence for you, the same JSON for your agent's loop.
The launch was never the risk — it's that the site you launched needs maintaining every week after, and that cost is what caps you at one property. Put the maintenance on a schedule and the ceiling moves: launch, keep it alive for the price of a cron entry, add the next one on the same box.
Ghost-launch on the existing box. Record pages indexed with per-entity JSON-LD, compound pages count-gated so nothing thin ships. SKILL.md surfaced for LLMs.
The part that decides month six. A scheduled agent reads the GSC + Stripe brief, refreshes what went stale, drafts the pages the data now supports, and stops at the approval queue. Pair taxonomies and the compound matrix (e.g. /medical-spa/{city}) generates with breadcrumbs, chip nav, and count-gating.
Launch the next one on the same box, into the same loop. Marginal cost: a CSV. Two properties → three → twenty, all maintained by the same nightly run. The portfolio is the moat because the maintenance is shared.
Keep winners. Kill losers. The one that works is still working in month six, because something is running it.
Every tool below gets you a live site. The rows that decide whether it is still indexed and still earning next year — freshness, per-entity structure, thin-page gating, a review gate an agent can't bypass — are the rows nobody else fills.

Every cheaper-looking route is really a stack — directory, search, pSEO, local SEO, payments — each its own plugin or SaaS, each renewing every year, and none of them running the loop that keeps the pages worth indexing. ShipMore wires all of it into one $159 payment.
Built for operators, not just engineers. If you've ever self-hosted WordPress, you can run ShipMore — one-click deploy to a cheap box, no Docker, no DevOps. Not for no-code beginners who want hosting handled for them.
If we don't have it yet, we say so.
Yes. ShipMore expects a flat CSV in its intended shape — one row per record, columns matching the schema you want. Sourcing, merging, and cleaning stay upstream. If you're not sure your data is ready, the CLI's schema infer step will tell you in about 2 seconds.
It can build it. That half is genuinely free now, and pretending otherwise would waste your time. What it doesn't give you is month six: a freshness loop running on a schedule, per-entity structured data, thin-page gating, an approval queue between the agent and production, and all of it across more than one property on one box. That's still weeks of integration work — and it's the part that decides whether the site is still earning next year.
Templated pages generated at scale with thin or duplicated content are exactly what Google's scaled content abuse policy targets, and enforcement is site-wide rather than page-by-page — the weakest pages can drag the whole property. ShipMore gives you the controls that matter: count-gating so sparse compounds never generate or get indexed, per-record JSON-LD instead of generic markup, and a scheduled loop that keeps the underlying data current. It does not give you a guarantee — what you publish is still your call, and anyone promising otherwise is selling you something.
Every collection is draft/publish with full version history. The agent proposes, nothing reaches production unreviewed, and every change is revertable. That approval queue is what makes an unattended scheduled loop safe to run against a property that takes payments.
You own the data, the Stripe account, the infra — and the bill is one cheap box for unlimited properties instead of per-property SaaS fees. Deploy in one click, never get squeezed on price changes.
Payload is the data layer underneath — yes. But the product is the entire Ingest → Present → Earn → Monitor → Operate loop, with the CLI, MCP, and 19 blocks wired to live business logic. A template gives you scaffolding, and then you maintain it by hand forever. ShipMore gives you the operate layer.
Yes — shipmore CLI is the canonical operator surface, MCP is a thin adapter, and the bundled SKILL.md follows the Agent Skills open standard, so it loads unchanged in Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor — 40+ agent tools. The 4-phase ingest workflow (infer → propose → apply → import) is designed for agent execution with operator confirmation gates.
Yes — that's the point. Every operation is a CLI command with --json output, so it drops into whatever your stack schedules with: a Claude Code /loop or cloud routine, a Codex scheduled task, plain cron. The nightly shape: the agent reads shipmore monitor brief --json, proposes fixes and content as drafts, and the approval queue is waiting with your morning coffee.
Payload is underneath. Code is yours. MIT licensed. No lock-in — fork it the day you outgrow it.
Your agent already builds these. This is the part that keeps them earning.
