Why I'm Building
Gemdex
I watched OpenAI launch Instant Checkout in October 2025 and realized: most businesses aren't ready for AI-driven commerce. Especially small, local businesses that are the heartbeat of our economy.
Traditional directories (Yelp, Angi, Thumbtack, etc.) weren't built for conversational AI. When someone asks ChatGPT for a recommendation, most businesses are invisible.
Gemdex fixes that. We're building the first AI-native business directory — optimized for how people actually search with AI.
Businesses with Gemdex profiles will be ready when OpenAI expands their Agentic Commerce features and launches Instant Booking.
Join the waitlist to be first.
