Product Cards in AI Visibility: See Where Your Products Show Up in AI Shopping Results 

AI-generated shopping carousels are quickly becoming a new front door for commerce, but most brands have no way to know if their products are showing up. Product Cards in AI Visibility change that.

You can now see when your products appear alongside AI answers, benchmark your visibility against competitors, and identify where your catalog is missing from key shopping experiences. As the first bridge between AI Visibility and your product catalog, Product Cards gives you a clearer understanding of how your brand is performing in agentic commerce.

With Product Cards, you can:

• See where and when your products appear in AI shopping results
• Benchmark your visibility against competing brands in the same AI answers
• Spot missing products and take action to improve visibility through AgenticCatalog

‍AI Visibility: Reorganized Around the Questions You're Actually Asking‍

The latest AI Visibility updates give you more ways to measure brand presence, understand competitive position, and connect AI search visibility to the campaigns and content driving it. With expanded citation insights, richer brand and competitor reporting, and more intuitive ways to explore performance, you can move from visibility data to strategic action faster.

Three new capabilities help you better understand and improve your presence across AI search:

• Expanded citation intelligence connects visibility to authority.
  New citation insights help teams understand how AI search experiences reference their brand and content, revealing where authority is being built, which campaigns are influencing visibility, and where opportunities exist to strengthen brand presence.
  
  
• Richer brand and competitor reporting puts performance in market context.
  Enhanced brand reporting gives teams a broader view of how their visibility compares across AI search experiences, helping them understand competitive momentum, identify shifts in share of voice, and see where their brand is gaining traction.
• Explore AI visibility signals with more context.
  New ways to explore AI visibility data help teams better understand the relationship between prompts, answers, mentions, and cited domains, making it easier to identify the moments and opportunities that matter most.

Together, these enhancements make AI Visibility data more actionable, helping teams understand not only how their brand is represented in AI search, but also which campaigns, platforms, and competitive moments to prioritize next.
