Revenue recovery for AI commerce
Stop leaking AI demand at the retail shelf.
Profound and Semrush tell you if ChatGPT recommended you. Stackline and Profitero tell you what sold. Neither tracks the demand that goes missing in between—and that's exactly where the money leaks. We map the full route and put a dollar figure on the revenue you're losing, and make recommendations to plug the gap.

How it works
From prompt to the retail shelf — and where the revenue is lost.
Most tools stop at "were we mentioned." Aqxle keeps going — through the citation, through the commerce route, all the way to the shelf the buyer actually lands on, and puts a dollar figure on every hop that leaks.

No tags, no pixels, no rip-and-replace. Aqxle runs on its own data and plugs into sources like Profound, Stackline, SEMrush, Similarweb or Ahrefs.
Deployment
No IT tickets. No integration required to start. First numbers in 24–48 hours.
For stack-heavy brands
The Diagnostic Bridge
Already paying for shelf analytics (Stackline) or AI visibility (Profound)? Aqxle runs independently alongside your existing setup. We map the open-web routing layer that your current tools miss, delivering a side-by-side diagnostic without needing your API keys or IT security approvals.
For zero-tool brands
The All-In-One Engine
Don't have a massive enterprise software stack? You don't need one. Aqxle's standalone intelligence engine tracks your category from the initial AI prompt directly to the retail cart, giving you enterprise-grade revenue protection on day one.
Who this is for
Built for Complexity.
Aqxle is built for consumer brands with meaningful online demand, competitive category pressure, and complex discovery pathways across AI platforms, publishers, affiliates, retailers, and marketplaces.
- You manage complex omnichannel availability (DTC, Amazon, Walmart, Target).
- You are paying for AI visibility and digital shelf tools, but can't connect top-of-funnel marketing lift to actual retail checkout.
- You suspect AI engines are routing your buyers to competitors or third-party sellers, but have no visibility into the pathways.
Commerce Graph tear-downs
Where AI-influenced demand is captured—and where it leaks.
Every teardown follows the same question: when consumers discover a category through AI, search, media, publishers, retailers, or marketplaces, is the route ready to convert—and does it lead to the destination the business values most?
