What is a brand worth when AI does the shopping?

Ask an AI shopping tool to recommend a product, and you won't see what you'd expect to see on the shelf: no recognizable logo, no eye-catching packaging, no premium placement. Just specs, a star rating, and a price.

It begs the question: how much does brand equity actually count in a shopping experience built to strip away almost everything a brand has spent years building?

Generative AI is now the middleman deciding what gets surfaced, compared, and shortlisted, but even AI ultimately relies on real, human content to make that call. And our research shows: AI isn't replacing brand equity, it's redefining where and how it gets tested.

In this 30-minute live webinar, we'll share findings from our latest report on how established brands can defend their position on the AI shelf, and how challenger brands can build equity to start competing on it:
