Executive Summary
FirstCry is India's largest baby and kids products retailer, with millions of parents shopping on the platform every month. But the modern parenting journey begins with questions - asked to AI tools like ChatGPT. When new parents asked where to buy baby products in India, the AI answers often suggested Amazon or niche brands first, not FirstCry.
As a marketplace with thousands of brands, FirstCry's challenge was distinctly different from SaaS companies - the AI search optimization needed to build entity authority for a consumer retail brand in a highly emotional, trust-driven category.
The Challenge
- Amazon India outranking FirstCry in baby product AI recommendations
- Weak brand entity associations with newborn care and parenting essentials
- Missing from AI responses to new parent queries on gift guides and baby registries
- Limited AI-trusted content covering baby safety standards and product recommendations
