About Buy-it.ai

Buy-it.ai unlocks the invisible retail window inside streaming content. Viewers constantly see products they want but can’t buy. We fix that.

Using proprietary multimodal AI, we identify on-screen products and recreate compliant, shoppable scenes by instantly connecting viewers to retailers. No IP risk. No negotiations. No friction.

As shown in our deck (p.2–3), we convert the exact moment of inspiration before search even begins, transforming TV, film, and creator videos into measurable retail traffic.

What we do:
- Turn entertainment moments into high-intent shopping touchpoints
- Deliver qualified CPC traffic directly to retailers
- Enable broadcasters and streaming platforms to monetize unused ad inventory
- Create a completely new performance channel that beats search + social (deck p.11)

Why it matters:
Retailers are losing billions in missed attention. Product placement ($20B+) reaches only a tiny fraction of what’s on screen. Buy-it.ai unlocks the full $2T retail economy by making every product shoppable (deck p.4).

Problem statement

People spend hours watching TV, streaming, and creator content but the products featured in those scenes remain commercially unreachable. Traditional ads are skipped, CAC keeps rising, and media companies can’t monetize post-production attention.

Result: valuable retail attention is wasted, untracked, and unmonetized.

Buy-it.ai bridges this gap using AI-powered scene recreation (deck p.6).
We enable retailers to acquire high-intent customers the moment they become interested: no search, no guesswork, no lost sales.
