AI assistants only recommend what they can understand.

Máximo doesn't just dump your catalog into ChatGPT and hope. Catalog Intelligence decides which products matter, then AI Discovery gives assistants the context to recommend the right ones, native to Shopify, no shady hacks.

The shift

shoppers ask assistants. assistants only cite what they trust.

If your catalog isn't readable, or if it's full of gift cards, duplicates, and thin titles, you're invisible in AI Discovery no matter how good your SEO is. The fix isn't another monitoring dashboard. It's a catalog layer that already knows your products.

The pipeline

Catalog Intelligence → discovery files → AI channels.

Here's what actually gets published: product data with Q&A, popularity, and related products, plus brand identity in your own words. Toggle product / brand below to see both sides of the payload.

Why Máximo

the differentiation isn't another file format. it's the catalog underneath.

Products that matter

Catalog Intelligence already knows what's a gift card, a duplicate, or a dead SKU. AI Discovery surfaces the catalog assistants should recommend, not everything in Shopify.

Context, not just titles

Q&A, popularity ranking, and related products travel with the catalog so assistants can recommend the right product for the question, not the first match.

One catalog, every channel

The same decisions that clean Google, Meta, TikTok, and Pinterest power AI Discovery. No separate AI feed to maintain, no drift between paid and organic.

Shopify-native

Ships through supported theme surfaces and discovery files Shopify expects. No shady hacks, no brittle theme forks.

No rules engine to train

You don't write inclusion rules for AI. Catalog Intelligence learns the catalog and keeps destinations focused as products change.

Built for how shoppers ask

ChatGPT, Perplexity, Copilot, and AI Overviews only cite what they can read and trust. Máximo makes your catalog that surface.

Native, not hacked

AI Discovery uses Shopify-supported surfaces for discovery. Selling inside ChatGPT is Shopify's Agentic Storefronts, separate, and linked from Máximo for reference.
