ChatGPT builds an e-commerce product feed infrastructure
ChatGPT is now ingesting product feeds directly from merchants rather than scraping Google Shopping. Shopping results now display source feed names, including Walmart, Target, Home Depot, Chewy, Best Buy, Etsy, and Shopify merchants.
What changed
Amazon has not created a feed for ChatGPT. The shift from web scraping to structured feeds enables more accurate and up-to-date product information.
Why it matters for advertisers
For you, this means ChatGPT shopping discovery is becoming more reliable, though integrated checkout has been abandoned, and users will be directed to your site.
