Industry Background

• When target users frequently use AI to ask scenario-based questions about color cosmetics base makeup (e.g., "What foundation is suitable for oily skin?"), AI optimization should be considered
• The essence of AI optimization competition is the competition of evidence chain quality: authoritative, structured, and easily retrievable information is more likely to be recommended by AI
• Timeliness is crucial: need to real-time perceive changes in AI narratives and respond quickly

Typical Questions

• Difference between AI optimization and AI advertising placement: the former is an asset investment (long-term free recommendation), the latter is paid traffic (effect stops when placement ends)
