AI search optimization
for CPG

Built to win the sale, not just the search

Other tools chase search volume. SPINS Agentic Discovery prioritizes the prompts driving category sales, so you focus on what has the highest commercial impact.

Own the AI Shelf

Not all AI optimization is the same.

The industry default

Optimize for awareness

Frequently Asked Questions

3 in 4 shoppers now rely on AI-mediated search platforms as their primary starting place for product discovery. Platforms like ChatGPT have begun taking share from traditional search engines, and tools like Alexa on Amazon and Google AI Mode are actively fielding conversational product questions that would have gone to a search bar a year ago.

AI agents recommend products they can understand and trust. Improving your visibility starts with making your product data structured, consistent, and machine-readable across every surface where agents look. In practice, that means structured data formats like JSON-LD schema markup, benefit-led product descriptions aligned to how shoppers actually search, consistent attributes across your brand site and retailer PDPs, and FAQ content that answers the specific questions AI agents are trained to surface. SPINS Agentic Discovery does this work using 30+ years of CPG category intelligence. We identify which attributes drive purchase decisions in your category, transform your existing product data into AI-ready content, and help you deliver it into your existing CMS, PIM or DAM, so it propagates across surfaces.

SEO and AI visibility optimization share significant common ground, but the playbook is different. Structured data, consistent attributes, and clear benefit statements that make content legible to both human readers and machines are fundamental. If you’re already optimized for SEO, you’re not starting from zero.

SPINS Agentic Discovery shows you exactly which competitor brands and products AI search engines recommend when shoppers ask category-specific questions that your products should be recommended for.

Brands that win AI visibility get recommended in high-intent moments their competitors don't—protecting share and capturing demand before a shopper ever reaches a retailer's shelf. As AI becomes a primary discovery channel, the brands that optimize now build a compounding advantage that's increasingly difficult for late movers to close.

AI is quietly becoming how consumers discover and buy products — and most brands are flying blind. SPINS Agentic Discovery is the only AI optimization solution that connects AI search performance directly to retail sales data, so brands know which content gaps are costing them revenue. Unlike competitors that only monitor visibility, SPINS diagnoses the problem, tells you what to fix, and delivers the content to fix it — all grounded in 30 years of CPG category expertise.
