When shoppers ask AI what to buy, does your brand come up?

More shoppers now ask an AI assistant "what's the best … to buy?" and go with the few brands it names. Berakio AI Check asks your category's shopping questions the way shoppers do, many times over. It shows how often your brand appears, who appears instead, and what's missing on your site.

Why ask the same question many times?

Ask an AI the same question twice and you get two different answers. One screenshot tells you very little.

So we ask each question 10 times and count. You get an appearance rate ("named in 3 of 10 answers"), not a one-off ranking.

We ask plain shopping questions word for word. We don't add your brand name or lead the model toward an answer.

Questions

Can you get my brand recommended by AI?

No one can promise that, and we don't try to. We measure how often AI names you and point to what's missing on your site. What the AI does next is up to the AI.

Is this a GEO tool?

In a way. Generative engine optimization (GEO) is the work of getting your brand into AI answers. Any GEO work starts with a number: how often AI names you today. That number is what we measure. We don't sell optimization or placement.

Which AI do you test?

We run checks with Claude (Anthropic) and OpenAI models, with web search off. Other assistants can answer differently, and each result says which model it came from.

Is a person involved?

No. Checks and reports are produced automatically by software that uses AI models. We don't hand-edit results.

What do you do with my information?

We store your email, brand, website and category so we can run the check and send it to you. We don't sell it or use it for ads. See the privacy policy.
