Don't miss the next E-Commerce revolution with Agentic Commerce.
Large E-Commerce sites, such as Shopify, include integration with these protocols (UCP and ACP) automatically, allowing the full shopping experience to be executed in the online chat inferface of common LLMs (such as Google Gemini and ChatGPT). Foinks Agentic Commerce integrates your online shop (powered by WooCommerce) with these protocols and allows your products to be discovered through AI search and recommendations (through adding your products to common Merchant Centers - namely Google's and Microsofts).
Agentic commerce is where AI agents purchase products online on behalf of the user. This is the new age of E-Commerce.
While the implementation and adoption of full Agentic Commerce systems is still in its infancy (e.g. agent to agent negotiating and execution), the importance of preparing for this new shopping pardigm is undisputed.
This is due to the uptake of using LLMs (like ChatGPT and Google Gemini) for everyday tasks and shopping will be the next task to be included. Currently, Google has released and is developing the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) and OpenAI/Stripe have the Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP). These protocols allow the entire shopping experience, from product discovery to payment execution, to be delivered within the online chat interface, without leaving to the merchant's website (although ChatGPT has currently moved towards focussing on product discovery and re-directing to the merchant's website, rather than executing the payment).
