Be the brand AI engines name when a shopper asks what to buy.

Retailers, direct-to-consumer brands, marketplaces and omnichannel commerce. ZivRank measures which brands and stores AI engines recommend on your shoppers' questions, then works to get yours into the answer.

Before buying, shoppers ask AI engines for a comparison, an alternative, the best value. The answer names a few brands and a few stores. Not being there means not being on the starting list.

What we bring to retail and e-commerce

Built for how your buyers research

Questions by product category

“Best cordless vacuum for an apartment”, “cheaper alternative to…”: we measure comparison and choice questions, category by category.

Product facts the engines reuse

Precise specifications, use cases, warranties and reviews: structured, consistent information is what AI engines reuse to name a product.

Where to buy, not only what to buy

Engines link to stores. We track which ones are cited for your products, and whether your own site is one of them.

Where the answers come from

Retail answers draw on media reviews and roundups, review sites, forums and communities, marketplaces and brand websites. We measure which ones the engines reuse for your categories before choosing where to publish.

Proof, not promises

Measured before and after

Every program starts with a locked baseline measurement and is re-measured with the same protocol. You keep the raw answers, so every number in your report can be checked. See a measured case study →

The method, applied to retail and e-commerce

From baseline to re-measurement

01

Measure

The buying questions of your market (50 from the Core plan upward), asked 5 times on each of 5 AI engines. You see where you are named, where you are only a source, and where you are absent.

02

Diagnose

Who is named instead of you, on which questions, and which sources the engines reuse. Plus a technical audit of what stops AI engines from reading your site.

03

Produce

Assets the engines can cite, placed on the sources they already trust in retail and e-commerce. Reviewed by an expert before anything goes live.

04

Re-measure

The same protocol, replayed identically. A change only counts if it rises above the noise floor set before comparison.

Frequently asked questions

Does GEO replace SEO for my product pages?
No, it adds to it. SEO gets your pages into search results; GEO aims at your brand being present in the answers AI engines generate.
Can you measure category by category?
Yes. Questions are grouped by product category so you see where your brand is named, where it is missing and who is named instead.
Do customer reviews matter?
They are among the sources engines reuse. We measure how much they weigh on your questions before deciding whether they are a priority.
How is progress measured?
A locked baseline, then re-measurements with the same questions and engines. You receive the raw answers, and each change is compared against a noise floor set beforehand.
