Jellyfish Launches Share of Model™ Shopping Optimization
AI Shopping upends the rules of brand leadership, price positioning and competition, according to new Jellyfish research. These insights were made possible by Shopping Optimization, a new capability within Jellyfish’s Share of Model™ Platform, that gives brands a clear understanding of the factors driving AI recommendations, so they can focus their optimization efforts and measure the business impact.
Jellyfish Research: AI Shopping Reshapes Brand Competition
New research from Jellyfish, a global digital marketing company within The Brandtech Group, reveals that AI shopping assistants are dramatically reshaping competitive dynamics. The Share of Model™ tool analyzed AI recommendations across eight categories in the US, UK, Australia, and Singapore, spanning ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, and Amazon Alexa. Key findings show there is no single 'AI shelf'—different assistants recommend vastly different brands and products for the same query. AI can erase brand leadership, as seen in US fashion where the top brand held only 7% of the shelf across 120 brands. AI also ignores traditional price positioning, with men's suits in the UK ranging from £27 to £3,295 in one response. The company launched Shopping Optimization, a new capability within Share of Model, enabling marketers to analyze AI recommendations at the SKU level and optimize for agentic commerce.
Jellyfish Launches AI Ads Optimisation in Share of Model
Jellyfish, a global digital marketing company within The Brandtech Group, announced AI Ads Optimisation — an expansion of paid-media optimisation inside its Share of Model™ platform. The update extends beyond existing Google Ads / Performance Max integration to produce AI-driven media optimisation and insights for ChatGPT-driven experiences and major channels including TikTok, DV360, YouTube and Reddit (the latter via pilots). The release also adds an always-on strategy assistant that continuously surfaces recommendations across SEO, brand, PR, paid media and ecommerce teams. Share of Model, launched in 2024 to track brand visibility in LLMs, has been cited by Harvard Business Review and MIT Technology Review. Google PMax, YouTube, DV360, ChatGPT and TikTok support are available globally today.
