AI Search Answer Monetization Layer (ASML)

A browser plugin + backend that intercepts AI search responses (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude) in real-time, detects when they cite or recommend your product/brand, and injects a clickable 'View on [Brand]' card with exclusive offers, inventory status, and direct checkout links. The plugin tracks which AI queries mention you and feeds attribution data back to your dashboard.

Original Problem

E-commerce brands losing revenue despite traffic drops in AI search era

Online businesses are experiencing declining website traffic due to AI search engines (like ChatGPT, Perplexity) fragmenting traditional search, but they don't understand how to maintain or grow revenue when customers bypass their sites entirely. Current SEO and traffic-focused strategies are becoming obsolete, and brands lack frameworks to monetize in an AI-mediated search landscape where direct traffic is no longer the primary conversion path.
