March 17 (Reuters) - Global online review platform Trustpilot said on Tuesday its annual profit more than quadrupled, lifted by AI search tools that drove a 1,490% surge in click-throughs to its site and reinforced its role as a key data source for AI models.
Shares of the company jumped nearly 19% in early trading.
Trustpilot, whose reviews are increasingly appearing across the web and in AI-generated search results, is among digital platforms with large stores of user-generated content benefiting from the AI boom, as large language models draw on review sites to answer consumer queries.
