ChatGPT Brand Mention Tracker
Helps small merchants see if ChatGPT and other assistants mention them—and at what price
- Problem
- More consumers ask AI assistants what to buy, but small merchants have no idea if they're mentioned in AI answers or at what price point. There's no cheap tool to regularly run real buyer questions and record brand mentions across assistants; merchants can only manually ask every so often.
- Solution
- Merchants enter their brand name, category, and a set of buyer question templates. The system periodically runs these questions against multiple major AI assistants, records whether the brand is mentioned, at what price, with what sentiment, and which competitors appear—then generates simple trend reports and alerts.
- Users
- Small brands selling on Amazon or DTC sites, local service providers, small merchants
- MVP
- Enter brand name and 10 buyer question templates; daily automated runs against ChatGPT/Claude/Gemini; extract brand mentions, price, competitor presence; simple trend chart; weekly email digest.
- Revenue
- Monthly subscription: free for 1 brand once a week; paid $19/month for higher frequency and multiple brands; add-on competitor comparison pack.
- Why now
- AI assistant shopping recommendations are taking off, but merchant-side visibility tools are almost nonexistent. Big marketing suites haven't covered this scenario, and small merchants have limited budgets—a good fit for an indie lightweight solution.
