About FoundGPT
Shoppers increasingly ask ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity what to buy before they ever reach a store. FoundGPT checks whether AI recommends your Shopify store when they ask, pinpoints why you're missing, and fixes the product data, structured data and llms.txt that AI engines actually read — all from inside Shopify.
The author
Rahul built FoundGPT and personally runs the multi-engine visibility tests behind its research. Across 111 Shopify stores he has run 23,000+ real AI-search checks on ChatGPT, Gemini, Google AI Mode and Perplexity, and applied ~99,000 structured-data fixes. The guides on this site draw on that first-hand data — no fabricated numbers.
How we research
Every industry guide is grounded in real scans: we run the buyer queries shoppers actually ask, record every domain each engine cites, and analyse the structured attributes on real products. Where we haven't measured something, we say so. Citation patterns drift month to month, so we treat single runs as directional, not definitive.
