Kiri Masters Research Report

What is a brand worth when AI does the shopping?

When AI assistants strip away logos, eye-catching packaging, and paid ad placements, what determines which products win? While algorithms compare thousands of specs in seconds, 65% of shoppers still click the brand they already know and trust over an AI’s top recommendation.

  • The 94% Validation Gap: Understand why 94% of shoppers perform follow-up diligence on ratings, reviews, and visual UGC before trusting an unfamiliar brand.
  • Actionable GEO Strategies: See how structured user-generated content gives both AI models and human buyers the verifiable proof needed to close the sale.
