Will structured product feeds become more or less important to AI search?

Structured data specialization will separate winners from also-rans in AI search. Alex Sherman, co-founder and CEO of Bluefish AI, brings that perspective from building PromoteIQ, the retail media platform Microsoft acquired, and now serving Fortune 500 brands exclusively on AI discovery accuracy. He argues AEO and agentic marketing are still in their earliest innings, with today's do-everything platforms giving way to segment-specific players—data, analytics, optimization, measurement, and paid media specialists forming a new "lumascape." Sherman predicts a wave of new entrants within 12 months as the category matures past its generalist phase into genuine specialization.
