See every featureAI INDEX PRO optimizes your store and your products for AI search engines like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Grok. The app writes optimized descriptions, generates FAQs and Schema.org markup, and submits your store to AI platforms automatically every week. Classic SEO no longer covers where shoppers search, because more and more of them ask AI assistants.
Shoppers ask ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini what to buy. Burnish asks them 20 real buyer questions about your products and shows which stores they name: you or a competitor. Then it finds what costs you the answer and drafts the fix to titles, descriptions and metadata. You approve each change before it publishes. Start with 20 buyer questions and 50 product fixes.
