Buyers ask AI assistants where to shop. Is yours in the answer?
Ask one where to buy what you sell and it names a few shops, often not yours. Monitoring asks ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity your buyers’ questions every week and counts how often they mention your shop, so you see whether what you change is working.
From $9 a month, VAT included. Cancel any time.Why not just ask ChatGPT yourself?
You can, and it’s worth doing once. But one chat can’t tell you how often your shop is mentioned, or whether that’s changing.
It takes hours, every week
To see a pattern you’d ask every question in many fresh chats, of each AI assistant, every week, and note each answer the same way. Monitoring does it on your schedule.
One answer is mostly chance
Ask the same question twice and the shops mentioned change. Only many answers, counted, show how often yours is really mentioned, and whether that has moved.
You’re not asking as your buyers do
Your own ChatGPT knows you, what you’ve asked before and where you are. We ask in a fresh chat every time, from your buyers’ country, the same way every time.
How monitoring works
You tell us about your shop once. From then on the questions are asked without you, and you read what came back.
- 1
Your buyers’ questions
We draft them from what you tell us about your shop: what you sell, who buys it and where. Edit them, drop them or add your own.

Asked on your schedule
Each question goes to the AI assistants you pick, from once a week to every day, in a fresh chat from your buyers’ country.
- 3
Counted, answer by answer
Every answer is counted the same way: your shop mentioned with a link, mentioned with no link, only in the search results the assistant read before answering, or not there at all.

From $9 a month, by how much you ask

What monitoring tells you
Can you guarantee my shop will be mentioned?
No, and nobody can: there’s no place to buy inside an AI assistant’s answer. We show you what they answer, and whether that changes. If someone guarantees recommendations, walk away.
How is this different from SEO?
SEO is about Google’s list of links. An AI assistant searches the web first, then writes one answer with a few shops in it. We show you both halves: whether its searches returned your pages, and whether the answer then mentioned your shop.
Will you tell me what to fix?
No. We report only what can be counted: what the AI assistants answered, what they searched for, and what your site tells robots. Every answer is on your dashboard, word for word, with the shops and the sites the assistant named instead of yours, so you can read what they told your buyers.
How do I see whether a change to my shop worked?
Your dashboard charts each AI assistant week by week, with a likely range around the count. When the count after your change clears the range before it, it has moved; anything smaller is normal variation, and the monthly note says which.
How monitoring runs
Which AI assistants do you ask?
The ones you pick, among ChatGPT (from OpenAI), Claude (from Anthropic), Gemini (from Google) and Perplexity. Each question goes to each of them, in a fresh chat with its own web search. You can add or remove one later.
Which questions do you ask?
Your buyers’ questions, the way they would ask them. We draft them from what you tell us about your shop; you edit them, drop them or add your own, up to 100.
How often should each question be asked?
One day a week gives about 4 answers a month from each assistant, two days about 9, every day about 30. More answers make a smaller change easier to trust. A good start: most questions once a week, the few that matter most every day.
Can I change my questions later?
Yes, any time: add or remove questions and assistants, or change the days. Your price follows from that day. A change can’t take a monitoring under $9 a month; to stop, cancel instead.
What does it cost?
$0.15 an answer, and an answer is one question asked once, by one assistant. Past 100 answers a month each costs $0.10, past 500 $0.06. VAT included, at least $9 a month, up to 100 questions, for one country. Yearly is ten months’ price for twelve. Cancel any time.
Getting started
What do you need from me, and how long does it take?
A few minutes to tell us about your shop, then you pick the questions, their days and the assistants. Your baseline report usually arrives within the hour.
Do I need to install anything, or be technical?
No. We read your public pages the way ChatGPT’s robot does, so any shop platform works and there’s no password to share.
