cloro

ChatGPT Shopping API

ChatGPT is becoming a shopping surface — and its product recommendations are a black box unless you sample them. cloro returns the shopping carousels and inline product references as structured JSON: title, price, merchant, rating, offers, and the generated shopping query behind each pick.

ChatGPT shopping data, answered

Why monitor ChatGPT's product recommendations?+

When a buyer asks ChatGPT what to buy, the carousel is the shelf. If your product isn't in it — or shows the wrong price or a reseller instead of you — you're losing sales you can't see in any dashboard. Sampling the carousel across your category prompts is the only way to know.

What's the difference between shoppingCards and inlineProducts?+

shoppingCards are the grouped carousels with category tags. inlineProducts are individual product references ChatGPT weaves into the answer, with richer metadata — variants, per-merchant offers, rating attribution, and the generatedProductQuery ChatGPT used to source the pick.

How do I enable shopping data and what does it cost?+

Pass `include.shopping: true` on `/v1/monitor/chatgpt`. Base request is 5 credits; shopping (with inline products) is part of a combined +2-credit add-on bundle shared with query fan-out, ads, and raw response — enabling any or all adds just +2.

What is generatedProductQuery useful for?+

It's the shopping query ChatGPT synthesized to retrieve that product — effectively the keyword your product feed needs to win to enter the carousel. Aggregating these across prompts gives you a ChatGPT-native shopping keyword set no other tool exposes.

Can I detect ChatGPT-driven traffic from this?+

Product URLs carry ChatGPT attribution parameters (utm_source=chatgpt.com), so you can join carousel presence against your analytics to measure how carousel placement converts to sessions and revenue.

Does ChatGPT also run ads?+

Yes — advertiser branding cards are a separate surface from organic shopping picks. See the ChatGPT Ads scraper for tracking those, and ChatGPT Sources for the citations behind the recommendation text.
