Use cases
Built for every store the AI shelf hasn't noticed yet
Three products, three questions. PositionBird tells you whether AI engines recommend you. ShopBird sends an AI shopper to find out whether they would buy. RevenueBird puts a dollar figure on both. Here is how different teams use each one, whether they sell on Shopify or anywhere else.

Who uses PositionBird
PositionBird tracks whether ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude and Google AI recommend your store when shoppers ask what to buy, and what to fix when they don't. How PositionBird works.
- New store
New Shopify stores: get a baseline before AI forms an opinion about you
“Does AI even know my store exists?”
Get a baseline in one scan. Most new stores start Invisible. PositionBird shows which prompts are winnable in your niche, who's being recommended today, and the shortest path to your first citations.
Fits: Free or Starter
- Established DTC brand
DTC brands: know if ChatGPT sends shoppers to you or a competitor
“We rank on Google. Are we losing the AI shelf?”
Shoppers who ask ChatGPT get one short answer, not ten blue links. Track your share of voice against named competitors across every engine, and get alerted by the trend line when a rival starts taking your spot.
Fits: Growth
- Broad catalog
Broad catalogs: see which categories AI already recommends, prompt by prompt
“Which of our categories does AI already recommend?”
Track up to 300 prompts across product lines. Find the categories where you're already Competitive, and double down, versus the ones where AI never mentions you and content work is needed first.
Fits: Scale
- Agency / freelancer
Agencies: show clients their GEO gap with a score, not a hunch
“I need to show clients their GEO gap.”
AI-search visibility is the question every ecommerce client is about to ask. Run PositionBird on client stores, on Shopify or on any website, to produce concrete scores, competitor comparisons, and a ranked work plan that justifies the retainer.
Fits: Growth or Scale per store

Who uses ShopBird
ShopBird is the AI mystery shopper. It runs real buying questions written from your bestsellers, reports how often the AI shopper picks your product, names the competitor that won each lost query, and checks price and stock claims against your live catalog. About ShopBird.
- Brand with a hero product
Hero-product brands: find out whether the AI shopper buys your bestseller or theirs
“When someone asks for the best one in our category, do we come up, or does the competitor?”
Fifteen buying questions per scan, written from your own bestsellers, run against every engine. You get a win rate per tracked product, the exact competitor that won each query you lost, and an alert when a query you used to win flips.
Fits: Growth, ShopBird included
- Store fielding wrong-fact complaints
Stores with price and stock complaints: catch the AI answer that is costing you the sale
“Perplexity told a customer we were out of stock. We were not.”
Every answer is checked against your live catalog for price and availability, so a stale or invented claim shows up in the next scan rather than in a support ticket. Each answer is hash-stamped, which is the evidence you need to get it corrected.
Fits: Growth, with Accuracy Alerts
- Agency reporting to clients
Agencies: a weekly win rate the client understands in one line
“The client asked what AI shopping means for them. I need a number, not a slide about trends.”
Win rate, rank per product and the named winner of each lost query, exported as evidence. It is the first AI-search metric a merchant reads without an explanation, and it moves when your content work lands.
Fits: Growth or Scale per store
What is it worth?
Who uses RevenueBird
RevenueBird is the money layer. It attributes orders to the AI engine that referred the buyer, prices every outage StatusBird catches against your own hour-of-week baseline, and emails one weekly ledger in dollars. About RevenueBird.
- Founder who doubts AI traffic matters
Founders: see whether any order actually came from ChatGPT before you invest in it
“I have no idea whether a single order came from an AI assistant.”
A Shopify web pixel, or a snippet for any storefront, tags the orders that arrived from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Claude or Google AI. The weekly ledger shows revenue by engine, so the decision to invest in AI visibility is made on your own numbers.
Fits: Growth, RevenueBird included
- Store that just had an outage
After an outage: a dollar figure for what it cost, not a count of minutes
“The board asked what the Stripe outage cost us and I guessed.”
Every outage StatusBird Uptime catches is priced against your normal revenue for that hour of the week, from your own order history. The incident cost ledger is the number you take into a vendor SLA claim or a post-mortem.
Fits: the Suite plan, with StatusBird Uptime
- Finance and operations
Finance teams: one weekly number for AI revenue and outage cost, side by side
“I want one email a week that tells me what AI search earned and what downtime cost.”
The weekly ledger lands on a schedule with both figures in it, so AI visibility and uptime are reviewed as revenue lines rather than as dashboards somebody has to remember to open.
Fits: Growth or the Suite plan
What to do when AI gets your brand wrong
