Analysis

How AI picks which dress brands to recommend

Across the 3778 buyer-intent queries in this snapshot, ChatGPT has shown products from 1271 different dress stores — but only 29 of them appear in more than 5% of searches. Visibility in AI shopping is concentrated in a short head, and most stores never reach it.

You compete against marketplaces, not just other brands

5 of the ten most-cited stores are marketplaces or department stores (currently Macy's, Etsy, Nordstrom, Walmart, Kohl's). They carry broad catalogues and deep review counts, so ChatGPT reaches for them on almost any query. A single brand on one product line is competing with stores that can answer everything.

Brands lose at the "ready to buy" moment

Carousels appear on most attribute and occasion questions, but far less often on purchase-execution questions ("where can I buy a midi dress under $100 right now"). When a shopper signals intent to buy, ChatGPT narrows to fewer stores — thin product feeds and weak structured data are what get dropped.

Ranking matters as much as frequency

Some stores appear rarely but near the top every time; others appear often but far down the shelf. "Shown but buried" is a different problem from "not shown" — both numbers are on every store page. Compare Quince and Fashion Nova.

How to read your store's page

The 55 stores with enough data, of 1,271 on the leaderboard, have their own page — e.g. Lulus, Petal & Pup, Abercrombie & Fitch — with the visibility %, the split by buyer-intent stage, the stores shown in its place, and the full query breakdown behind a work email.
