How it sells itself

Shoppers now ask ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity what to buy, and they answer from Shopify's Global Catalog. Cited measures whether your products surface for the buying questions that matter and shows where competitors outrank you. It rewrites a product's title, tags and description for how AI retrieves products — applied to your catalog in one click, no theme edits or exports.

Most Shopify stores are invisible to AI search. When shoppers ask ChatGPT or Perplexity for product picks, your competitors show up and you don't. Citelix runs daily scans across 5 AI platforms with real-time web search. When a competitor wins a citation, we crawl both stores and show exactly why: schema gaps, review counts, content depth. Every recommendation references your actual Shopify products.

Key points
  • Measure if AI assistants recommend your products for real buying questions
  • See which competitors win the buying questions you're missing
  • One-click catalog optimization applied natively — no theme edits or exports
  • We scan your tracked prompts daily across ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude.
  • Every scan uses real web search, so you see actual citations and sources.
  • We compare your store against your competitors and show exactly what they have.
  • You get specific, store-aware recommendations that reference your actual product
