How it sells itself

When a shopper asks AI what to buy and the answer shows another store, you lose the sale and never know. RankX AI asks your buyers’ questions on ChatGPT Shopping and Google AI Mode, shows whose products appear and what the answers compared, and finds what keeps yours out: a missing category, barcode or search title.

Shopify Catalog is the product search behind AI shopping channels. Choose the products you care about and the searches a shopper would type, and Sextant checks where each product appears in the top 100 results. It suggests a search for every product with your brand name left out, marks products that enter or leave the top 10, and lays your listing next to today's top 10: ratings and description length.

Key points
  • Product check for what AI shopping reads, with one-click fixes you can undo
  • Buyer questions checked on ChatGPT and Google AI Mode, again and again
  • See which stores AI answers show instead, and what their products have
  • Follow chosen products for the searches your shoppers actually type.
  • See each product's position in the top 100 Shopify Catalog results.
  • Start from a suggested search for every product, with brand names left out.
  • Spot products that enter or leave the top 10 at a glance.
