Agentic Commerce
The AI-driven revolution transforming how the world shops online.
AI agents that autonomously discover, evaluate, and purchase products on behalf of shoppers — and the platform that makes it work for both publishers and retailers.
One Platform, Both Commerce Sides
Publishers turn content into shopping intent. Retailers turn shopper questions into product discovery, cart actions, and support.
TechReview – Shopping Assistant✕Your Brand – Shopping Assistant✕Content becomes context
The publisher module reads the page, understands product intent, and starts a useful shopping thread.
AI Cart Handoff
Ready-to-buy readers can leave publisher chat with a preloaded merchant cart instead of a loose product link.
Retail chat converts
Retailers get variant selection, try-on prompts, add-to-cart, and customer-service answers inside the same assistant.
What Is Agentic Commerce?
Agentic commerce is a new paradigm of online shopping where autonomous AI agents handle the discovery, evaluation, and purchase of products on behalf of users. Instead of manually browsing product pages, applying filters, and comparing options across dozens of tabs, shoppers simply describe what they need — and an AI agent does the rest.
The AI understands natural language intent ("I need a lightweight running shoe for wide feet under $150"), searches product catalogs semantically, surfaces the most relevant options with reasoning, answers follow-up questions, and — via open protocols like OpenAI's Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP) and Google's Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) — can complete the purchase without the user ever leaving the conversation.
This is fundamentally different from traditional ecommerce (which relies on manual browsing) and conversational commerce (which only advises). Agentic commerce gives AI the ability to act — not just recommend.
Traditional Ecommerce
Shopper manually searches, filters, compares, decides. High friction. High abandonment.
The Old WayConversational Commerce
AI assists and advises through chat. Better experience, but shoppers still make every decision.
The Middle GroundAgentic Commerce
AI autonomously discovers, evaluates, recommends, and transacts. Lowest friction. Highest conversion.

Agentic Commerce Questions Answered
What is agentic commerce?
Agentic commerce is a new form of ecommerce where AI agents autonomously assist users through the entire shopping journey — from discovering products to completing purchases — through natural conversation. Unlike traditional ecommerce that requires manual browsing, filtering, and clicking, agentic commerce lets AI handle research, comparison, and recommendations on behalf of the shopper.
How is agentic commerce different from conversational commerce?
Conversational commerce assists customers through dialogue but leaves all decisions to the human. Agentic commerce goes further — the AI agent can autonomously take actions: recommending products, applying discounts, checking inventory, and completing purchases. The key difference is agency: agentic commerce changes who is in control of the shopping process.
Who benefits from agentic commerce?
Both publishers and retailers benefit. Publishers monetize their content through AI-powered shopping conversations that earn affiliate commissions, CPC revenue, and retail media fees — without manual link management. Retailers benefit from higher conversion rates, reduced support tickets, and personalized shopping experiences that guide customers to the right products.
What is the Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP)?
The Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP) is an open standard developed by OpenAI and Stripe that enables AI agents to complete purchases on behalf of users. It defines how AI agents communicate with retailers to initiate checkout, handle payment tokens, and complete transactions securely without exposing payment credentials.
How big is the agentic commerce market?
McKinsey projects that agentic commerce could orchestrate up to $1 trillion in US B2C retail revenue by 2030, with global projections reaching $3–5 trillion. 2026 is widely considered the breakout year, with Google, OpenAI, Microsoft, and Perplexity all launching agentic commerce capabilities.
