AI acquisition and channel intelligence

AO made AI-referred demand a measurable acquisition channel.

How this was measured: Estimated revenue associated with AI-referred website visits across the published 12-month reporting period. This is attributed revenue, not a calculation of incremental sales caused by Lindle. The June visit figure is a separate monthly measure.

The challenge

AI assistants were influencing product discovery, but AO could not reliably see when products were mentioned, when recommendations contained a usable link or where competitors appeared instead.

What Lindle did

Lindle ran thousands of shopper-style queries across leading AI assistants, measured mentions, links and competitor movement, and connected the results with AI-referred website traffic in a daily view the commercial team could monitor.

What changed

AO gained daily insight into when products appeared, when mentions included a usable link and where competitors were winning instead, alongside AI-referred website visits and their estimated commercial value.

Why it mattered

AI referral became a measurable acquisition channel the commercial team could monitor and act on.

“Before Lindle, we were guessing how often AO appeared in AI assistant answers. Now we have daily insight into when we're mentioned, when we're linked, and where we're missing out vs our competitors. The clarity has helped us strengthen product visibility and improve how customers discover AO through AI-powered search.”
