Signal
Descriptions answer relayed buyer questions
Product copy answers, in buyer language, the concrete questions agents relay from users (fit, compatibility, use-case) rather than marketing fluff that dodges them.
Per-platform status
Where a platform documents relevant behavior, its status and source are shown. Undocumented platforms show "unknown" - honest unknowns, never invented.
| Platform | Status | Notes | Source |

| ChatGPT | Partial | The feed requires a factual product description up to 5,000 characters, and the help article lists description among selection inputs. No buyer-question framing is documented. | Source (opens in new tab) · verified 2026-09-18 |
| Gemini / Google AI Mode | Partial | Google documents an optional question_and_answer feed attribute for AI surfaces. It says nothing about prose descriptions answering buyer questions on the page. | Source (opens in new tab) · verified 2026-09-18 |
