Your next customer
is an AI agent.

45% of consumers already use AI somewhere in their buying journey. ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI Mode are becoming the new storefront shelf — and most merchants haven't even noticed the shelf exists. These guides fix that.

TL;DR — Agentic commerce means AI agents discover, compare and buy on behalf of buyers. Merchants win by exposing clean, structured, machine-readable product data. Start with the 10-step checklist, then go deeper per protocol.
