Brazil's digital reputation becomes key driver for businesses and AI recommendations
Curitiba‑based startup ReputaAI announced that after six months of operation it has moved beyond product validation, showcasing a mature, scalable platform at the Conecta PR 2026 event. Founder Guilherme Lima said the solution helps firms manage online reputation, turning consumer reviews into a strategic growth tool that directly influences purchase decisions.
Reclame AQUI released a guide naming the 15 most trusted companies across more than 500 sectors, based on consumer‑rated performance. CEO Edu Neves highlighted trust as the market’s most valuable currency. The platform records about 22 million monthly users, with 64 % planning to buy within a week and 86 % making their first transaction with the researched company.
A new Reclame AQUI study found that generative AI models such as ChatGPT and Gemini now incorporate its reputation data when recommending brands. The report cited roughly 555 million AI‑generated mentions in the first half of 2026, alongside 945 million monthly Google impressions and a 75 % average conflict‑resolution rate. Companies with poor reputation scores risk being excluded from AI responses and search results, shifting focus from traditional SEO to reputation‑based visibility.
