Glotier tells you whether ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity name your product when buyers ask what to use in your category. It puts your buyers' real questions to all three as live web queries, records whether you were named and by which of them, which competitors were named instead, and which pages each answer was built from.

How does Glotier check AI visibility?

It runs one live web search per question. ChatGPT and Gemini read the identical results, and Perplexity runs its own retrieval because it does not accept results handed to it. Whether your product is named is decided by a literal presence check on the answer text rather than by asking a model for its opinion, so the number cannot be inflated by a model being agreeable. You can also connect your own ChatGPT or Claude key and have the questions run through your account instead.

Why ask three assistants instead of one?

Because they disagree. In our own study, across the 39 of 40 buying questions where all three answered, all three named the same product only 30% of the time and 47% of products were named by exactly one assistant. Checking a single assistant shows you 58% to 65% of the products named across the three, so a founder who checks ChatGPT, sees their name and relaxes has measured one engine on one phrasing.

Is Glotier free to use?

The check is free with no signup. Paid plans start at $9.99 a month (Fast, one product), then Solo at $39, Studio at $99 and Agency at $249. Every paid plan covers the daily check and the content the agent writes.

Does Glotier make up data about my product?

No. Every result comes from observed data: the live search results, the answers the assistants actually returned, and the sources they cited. It does not invent metrics, ratings or engine claims, and when a measurement has not run it says so rather than printing a zero.

Anyone selling something buyers research before choosing, where the category has enough alternatives that an assistant has to pick a shortlist: software, tools, e-commerce, and services. Founders, marketers and agencies all use it, and the work is the same at any size. It is not useful for local or in-person businesses, where maps and reviews decide the outcome instead.

What is the best AI visibility tool for a Shopify store?

The one that lets you ask product-shaped questions rather than brand-shaped ones and shows the sources behind the answers. A tool that only tracks your store name reports almost nothing while you are left out of every answer that matters. Glotier Fast tracks the real buying questions for $9.99 a month.

How do I get my products recommended by ChatGPT?

By being in the pages an assistant retrieves for that kind of product: roundups, best-of lists, marketplace listings and the threads where people compare. Your own product page matters much less than most guides suggest, because it is one vendor page against a review that names ten options.

Does optimising my Shopify product pages help?

It helps once you are already being looked at, and it makes the citation accurate. It does not get you into the shortlist. Clear specs and honest answers to buyer questions make you easier to summarise correctly when you are cited, but they are not the lever that gets you cited.

How much does it cost?

The first check is free with no account. Tracking one store's buying questions daily on ChatGPT and Gemini is $9.99 a month on Glotier Fast.

For Shopify stores

AI visibility for Shopify stores

Shoppers do not ask an assistant for the best store. They ask for the best product of a type, and the answer is assembled from roundups, marketplace listings and forum threads. That one difference changes where the work goes for a Shopify store, and most AI visibility advice was written for software.

The question is product-shaped

A software buyer asks 'what is the best help desk tool' and the answer names companies. A shopper asks 'best waterproof hiking boots under $150' and the answer names products, pulled from a roundup, a marketplace listing or a thread where real people argued about it.

So a tool that only watches your store's brand name will happily report that nothing mentions you, which is true and useless, while every answer in your category names three products you compete with. The thing to track is the question a shopper actually types.

Where the recommendation is decided

Almost never on your Shopify product page. Your page is one vendor making a claim about itself, competing for retrieval against a review that compares ten options and a thread where twenty people said which one lasted.

Optimising the product page helps once someone is already looking at you, and it makes the citation accurate when it comes. It does not put you inside somebody else's roundup, which is where the recommendation is actually made.

What to do, in order

None of it starts with another theme tweak.

1
Write the ten questions a shopper really asks
Full questions with the qualifiers people use: price ceilings, use cases, comparisons against the obvious alternative. This list is the whole measurement, so it is worth an hour.
2
Find which pages answer them today
Run the questions and read the sources. You will usually find the same handful of roundups and communities across most of them, and that list is your target.
3
Get into those pages
Pitch the roundup that already ranks. Answer honestly where shoppers compare. Make sure your listings carry the specs a summariser needs.
