An independent daily record of which Etsy shops and listings appear in ChatGPT shopping answers.

Why it surfaced

Hindsight says it recorded 19,440 ChatGPT shopping answers across 240 frozen questions, finding Etsy in 94.7% of answers that explicitly asked for Etsy but only 9.8% of ordinary gift answers. It preserves raw responses, discloses gaps, and publishes the named shops and machine-readable data—an unusually concrete attempt to create a history for AI recommendations.
