Questions

Getting your products recommended by ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini, and how Sighted does it from your own data.

How do AI shopping assistants decide what to recommend?

ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini match a shopper's question against the product data they can read: your product pages and their Schema.org markup, and feeds such as Google Merchant Center and the ChatGPT and Perplexity feeds. A product whose data states the material, fit, size, price and stock can be matched to a detailed question. A short title and a thin description usually cannot.

Will Sighted change my listings without asking?

No. Sighted scores your products without touching them, and you can preview a rewrite on one product before anything runs. New titles and descriptions wait in a review queue until you approve them; one tap restores your original. Only approved rewrites reach your Shopify store and the feeds, and a field you edit yourself stays yours.

What does it cost, and what does early access include?

Pricing is announced at launch, and early-access stores hear first. Early access scores your whole catalogue and previews one rewrite before anything runs. There is no card to enter, and nothing changes in your store until you approve a rewrite.

Does Sighted make up product details?

No. Every claim in a rewrite is checked against your own product data and photos before you see it. A claim Sighted cannot support, such as a material or a measurement, is held for your review instead of published, and FAQ answers that would guess at a typical value are dropped. New titles and descriptions wait for your approval, and a field you edit stays yours.

Which platforms and assistants does it work with?

Shopify connects directly; any other store imports a product feed URL or a CSV. Sighted checks ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini every week, and publishes your approved catalogue to your Shopify store, Google Merchant Center and the ChatGPT and Perplexity product feeds, with Schema.org markup for your product pages.

How does the scoring system work?

Every product gets a score out of 100 and a grade from A to F. The score weighs five things: whether your product page carries structured data assistants can read, how much real detail your title and description hold, whether your data agrees with itself, whether AI crawlers can reach your pages, and whether your feeds are ready for the assistants' channels. It updates on every change and every rescan.

How long does setup take?

A few minutes. Connect your store, or upload a CSV or a product feed URL, and scoring starts as your products come in. Nothing changes in your store until you approve a rewrite.

How do I get my products into ChatGPT Shopping?

Sighted builds a product feed that meets OpenAI's requirements for ChatGPT Shopping, hosts it and regenerates it whenever your data changes. You join OpenAI's merchant programme and submit the feed; Sighted walks you through the current steps once your store is connected. If you sell on Shopify, your catalogue may already be included through Shopify's own ChatGPT integration, so Sighted's job is making that data good enough to get picked.

How does Sighted check whether assistants recommend my products?

Every week Sighted asks ChatGPT, Perplexity and Gemini a set of real shopper questions about the kind of products you sell, and records whether each answer names your store. You see the results by assistant and over time on the Results page, so you can tell whether your changes moved anything.

What is Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO)?

When a customer asks ChatGPT, Perplexity or Gemini for a product like yours, can the assistant read your product data well enough to recommend you? Answer Engine Optimisation, or AEO, is the industry's shorthand for making that possible. Sighted scores every product on exactly that question, fixes the gaps in your brand voice, and tracks how often the assistants name your store.
