What the service is
CanAIShopYou (operated by Lineal Labs LLC, Delaware) prepares, validates and submits a store's product data to AI shopping
surfaces. Launch (one-time fee) covers: converting your catalog into feeds that meet the published specifications of
OpenAI's product feed and the Google product-data format accepted by Google Merchant Center, Microsoft Merchant Center, Meta
Commerce Manager and Perplexity; a written validation report; setting up those platform accounts with you (you own every
account and are the applicant of record); crawler-access checks; and preparing the chatgpt.com/merchants application.
Hosting (monthly fee) covers: regenerating your feeds daily, delivering them to each platform by scheduled fetch or,
for OpenAI, SFTP/API once OpenAI grants access; monitoring for price and stock drift, broken URLs, crawler blocks and
disapprovals; and fixing anything on our side within one business day. The free eligibility check builds a feed from your
public catalog and shows validation results; it is not advice.
What is not guaranteed
Inclusion, ranking, approval or timing on any platform โ OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Meta, Perplexity, Shopify or any other โ
is decided by that platform, not by us. OpenAI currently onboards direct product feeds for approved partners from a waitlist and
publishes no timeline. Shopify Catalog applies its own eligibility rules. We do not guarantee sales, traffic or that your
products will appear in any AI assistant. Most AI shopping surfaces serve US shoppers only.
Refunds and billing
If we cannot produce a feed from your store that passes OpenAI's published feed validation rules, we refund the Launch fee in
full. Approval, listing or ranking by any platform is not a refund condition. Hosting starts billing 30 days after purchase or
when your validated feed has been delivered to at least one platform, whichever comes first; cancel any month with no further
charge. Payments are processed by Stripe; we never see your card number.
Sponsored Presence (managed advertising add-on)
Includes everything in Launch and Hosting plus set-up and weekly management of a ChatGPT product-feed campaign in OpenAI Ads Manager,
a Google Shopping campaign and a Meta catalog campaign, conversion tracking, weekly reporting and a written stop rule. Three-month
minimum term, then month-to-month. Advertising accounts belong to you, are opened in your business's name, and ad spend is charged by
each platform to your own payment method; we never hold or bill ad spend. OpenAI Ads Manager currently requires a verified business in a
supported country with a matching payment card; if your business cannot be verified, the add-on fee for unstarted months is refunded.
Guarantee: while your ChatGPT product-feed campaign is approved, funded and within its budget, your products will receive sponsored
impressions in ChatGPT conversations, as reported in OpenAI Ads Manager, in every 7-day period; if a funded, approved campaign records
zero impressions in a 7-day period, that week's management fee is credited. The guarantee covers sponsored impressions only and makes no
promise of organic inclusion, ranking, click volume, sales, return on ad spend, or appearance to ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business or
Enterprise users, and depends on OpenAI's relevance matching and policy approval.
Your data and keys
To build feeds we read your store's public catalog. If you give us platform access, prefer manager or collaborator roles over
passwords. If you choose the optional ACP checkout endpoint, you provide WooCommerce REST keys and a Stripe restricted key;
these are stored with restricted access (encrypted at rest once our secrets key is configured), used only to operate that endpoint, never shown again, and deleted on request. We do not
sell or share your data. See the privacy page.
Acceptable use
Use the service only on stores you own or are authorised to represent. Products must comply with each platform's policies;
we may decline restricted categories. Don't use the service to harm, overload or misrepresent any third party.
Independence and liability
CanAIShopYou is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Meta, Perplexity, Shopify or any
store we serve. All product and company names belong to their owners. The service is provided "as is"; our total liability
for any claim is limited to the fees you paid us in the preceding three months. These terms are governed by the laws of the
State of Delaware, USA.
