See what AI Agents tell shoppers about your store
Shoppers now ask AI what to buy. AEO Tracker runs your customers' real buying questions through AI every week and shows what different AI Agents say about your store.
AEO Tracker is a Shopify app that answers one question: when a shopper asks an AI Agent what to buy, does it mention you?
Your questions, written for you
The app reads your product catalog and drafts the buying questions your customers actually ask, like "best portable monitor stand".
Real searches, not model memory
Each question runs a real cited web search through ChatGPT, Google AI Overview, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Grok, replicating what a shopper actually sees.
Results you can act on
A weekly tracker shows where you rank in each answer and which websites the AI trusted as sources, so you can take action.
Why it matters what AI says about you
A growing share of product research never touches Google Search. The shopper asks an AI, the AI answers in a paragraph, and only a handful of brands get recommended.
If your store is not recommended in that paragraph, you are invisible to that shopper.
That is the problem AEO Tracker solves. It tracks your visibility over time and tells you which sources AI relies on for its answers.
Where shoppers actually ask
Here is the rough split of worldwide visits to AI assistants as of May 2026, and what AI-driven shopping already looks like in the numbers.
Sources
Grounded (web searched) answers or guesses from model memory?
There are two ways to check what an AI says about your brand. The easy way is to ask the model from memory, with web search switched off. The answer comes from training data that is usually years old.
The other way is what a real shopper triggers: the assistant searches the web, reads sources, and answers with citations. That answer changes as the web changes. It is the answer that real shoppers actually get when using AI.
AEO Tracker only counts grounded answers. Every check runs as a live search, the same way a customer would.

Questions
What is AEO?
AEO stands for answer engine optimization. It's also known as GEO or AI SEO. AEO is making sure AI assistants mention and recommend your store when shoppers ask them what to buy. It is the successor to SEO. SEO earned you a spot in a list of links; AEO earns you a spot inside the answer itself.
How is this different from SEO tools?
SEO tools track where you rank in a search results page. AEO Tracker tracks whether you are named inside AI answers, which paragraph position you get, who gets named instead of you, and which sources the AI trusted. Different surface, different levers, different tool.
What does "grounded" mean?
A grounded answer is one where the AI searched the live web and cited its sources before answering, which is what real shoppers see. An ungrounded answer comes from the model's memory of old training data. AEO Tracker runs every check grounded and stores the citations, so your numbers reflect what shoppers actually see today.
Which AI engines does it check?
ChatGPT, Google AI Overview, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Grok. The Free plan checks ChatGPT; paid plans add the rest, starting with Google AI Overview on Starter.
Can I track other countries?
Yes, on Growth and Pro. Questions run in your store's own country by default. You can also pin a question to the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Germany or France, and each pinned copy uses one of your weekly slots. Write German and French questions in the local language, the app does not translate for you.
Will it change my storefront?
No. The app only reads your product catalog to draft your buying questions. It makes no theme changes, adds no scripts to your store, and never sees customer data.
How do I improve my results once I can see them?
The dashboard shows which websites the AI engines cite when they answer your questions. Getting your brand onto those sites, improving your product pages, and collecting reviews on the sources the engines already trust are the main levers. The tracker shows you week by week whether it is working.
Is it only for Shopify?
Yes for now. AEO Tracker installs from the Shopify App Store and reads your catalog through Shopify. Nothing else to set up.
