Industry
Ecommerce & D2C brands
AI shopping assistants are the next big distribution channel. Brands that earn their citations now will dominate them in 2027.
Why AEO matters here
Product schema, original content (reviews, comparisons, guides) and trust signals decide which brand the AI names. Retail-optimised AEO converts spectacularly.
What you get
- Capture buyers at the moment of decision, not the start of research.
- Drive traffic that converts 2–3× better than paid social.
- Build moats around your top SKUs.
