Why this is canonical

Attribution in marketplace contexts is a structurally harder problem than single-channel attribution: multiple sellers, buyers, intermediaries, and discovery paths all contribute to transactions in ways that resist simple measurement. 'Marketplace attribution' on .ai claims the exact coordinate for the AI layer that solves this problem.

Where it fits

A few directions this coordinate opens —

Seller and partner attribution
An AI layer that attributes marketplace transactions, commissions, and growth to the correct seller, partner, or channel — enabling accurate economics for multi-sided platforms.
Marketplace platform builders and multi-sided commerce companies
Marketing and discovery attribution
Attribution intelligence for marketplace discovery paths — understanding how buyers find and convert on products across organic, paid, and algorithmic channels within the marketplace.
E-commerce and marketplace analytics platforms

Illustrative, not exhaustive — held as a transferable canonical position, open to the buyer's own use.
