Hi @DoubleD7

It’s David from SearchPie here!

Yes, the Shopify Knowledge base app and SearchPie are fully compatible and work together perfectly for a modern SEO strategy, especially for AI search. They serve two distinct but complementary roles.

SearchPie is your “technical engine.” Its job is to ensure all that great content is perfectly structured so AI can understand it. Its most important feature for AI search is automatically adding structured data (schema), which is like a cheat sheet for AI that cleanly explains your products, articles, and FAQs.

Hope this helps!
