The retail operating system

One engine for every retail decision.

Most retailers run four or five separate tools.

Search in one tool, pricing in another, ads bolted on top — nobody owns the order shoppers see, and margin leaks between them. The Unified Decision Engine governs relevance, inventory, margin and sponsored demand in one pass, on every surface, including the AI assistants now doing the shopping.

Start with one surface. Leave the rest of your stack untouched.

How do brands get into AI shopping answers?

Brands get into AI shopping answers through relevant product content, live retailer availability and, where a retailer or app offers it, labelled sponsored placements matched by meaning.

Three things that help

  • Rich, accurate product content an assistant can match to a question.
  • Live price and stock from the retailers that sell the product.
  • Sponsored placements that surface the brand when the request is relevant.

No brand can buy its way into a general assistant's organic answer; sponsored placements run inside retailer or brand apps that support them, and are labelled.

Run it with Particular Audience

The Brand AI Commerce Programme lets a brand build its own AI discovery app, list participating retailer feeds for live price and stock, and fund the Sponsored Prompts that surface the app. Adaptive Transformer Search and the open-source ATS MCP server match relevant products to relevant ad requests by meaning. Brands are onboarded in cohorts by category; apply here.

Does a bid get a brand into an irrelevant answer?

No. Only requests that score as a strong match by meaning are eligible; the bid orders relevant ones.
