AI & tooling
Every AI & Agentic Commerce article, newest first.
AI now reaches a Shopify store in two directions: the apps a merchant installs — copy, personalisation, support agents, search — and the assistants customers use to decide what to buy, which read the catalogue, compare it with competitors and increasingly complete the purchase. These guides cover both, plus the tooling — MCP servers, structured data, llms.txt — that makes a store legible to machines.
Start with the AI Visibility Audit to see whether ChatGPT and Perplexity name your store today; most brands find the assistants have never heard of them.
