See the whole AI shelf in your category, then win the sale back to your own store
GEOly gives DTC brand leaders one operating view of the AI shelf across their whole category: track AIGVR and Share-of-Model gaps against rivals, pull the buy-now entry on AI product cards back from retailers to your own store, and size GEM budget from real ChatGPT advertising data.
What are the best luggage brands for frequent business travelers?
AI assistants now build a product shelf before the click: they rank brands, surface shoppable cards, and route the buy-now link. GEOly shows your Share-of-Card, where retailers intercept the sale, and where the category white space still is.
Shoppable ad cards are already live here, yet about 60% of advertisers stay invisible on the organic shelf.
Product cards surface, but the buy-now link often routes to retailers instead of your store.
Third-party citations and price proof are too thin to hold a card in the shortlist.
High-intent recommendation prompts are open category white space nobody owns yet.
The AI shelf is where your category is decided, and where retailers quietly take your sale
Ecommerce teams still watch rankings, clicks, and revenue. But shoppers now let AI build the product shelf, rank the brands, and open a buy-now link, and that link often does not point to your store.
Your category has an AI shelf, and you cannot see your spot on it
The whole category is being organized into an AI product shelf. Without your Share-of-Card and the open white space, you cannot tell what to fix first or which rival to chase.
Retailers are intercepting the buy-now click
On AI product cards the buy-now link often routes to Amazon and other retailers, so the margin and customer data land in their store. DTC capture pulls that entry back to your own site.
You are sizing GEM budget with no ad data
Around 60% of advertisers stay invisible on the organic shelf, and the intent-ad rate benchmark sits near 22%. Without ad-library data, GEM budget is a guess.
What DTC brand leaders need is a shelf, capture, and budget system, not another visibility tracker
Today an AI answer is assembled from the category shelf, product cards, outside evidence, and competitor signals. GEOly turns an industry data layer of 100k+ brands and 26k+ topics into one operating model.

What the brand team gets out of it
The outcome is not just more reporting. It is a clear picture of the category shelf, where the sale is leaking to retailers, and how to size GEM budget.
Shopify data shows AI referral traffic up roughly 7x in 2026, and DTC capture keeps it landing on your own store, not a retailer.
AI-sourced orders are up around 11x year over year; DTC capture decides whose store books the sale.
