Shopify Opens Its Billion-Listing Catalog to Any AI Agent a Shopper Brings
Shopify announced on Tuesday, October 13, that shoppers can now connect almost any AI agent to their account on Shop, the company's order-tracking app, and let that agent browse and buy from a catalog of more than a billion listings. Until now, agentic checkout on Shopify needed a partnership, as Meta's Muse agent received in September. That gate is gone. The shopper brings the agent, the agent does the searching and comparing, and checkout still runs through Shop Pay inside the conversation.
