Shopify's storefront technology that enables AI agents to browse, query, and transact on behalf of shoppers.
Shopify Agentic Storefronts are Shopify's next-generation storefront capabilities designed to serve AI agents as customers alongside human shoppers. These storefronts provide machine-readable product catalogs, API-accessible inventory and pricing, structured product data, and transaction endpoints that AI shopping agents can interact with programmatically. The technology enables any AI assistant—from ChatGPT to custom shopping agents—to browse a Shopify store's catalog, compare products, check availability, and even initiate purchases without human-oriented UI elements.
We help Shopify merchants activate and optimize agentic storefront features, ensuring AI shopping agents can discover and recommend their products.
As agentic commerce grows, stores that are agent-ready will capture sales from AI-driven shopping. Shopify's agentic storefronts provide the infrastructure for merchants to serve both human and AI customers from a single platform.

Agentic storefronts do not replace your regular Shopify store. They add a machine-readable layer on top of your existing store, serving AI agents while your human-facing storefront continues unchanged.
Shopify is rolling out agentic capabilities across plans. Check Shopify's current documentation for plan requirements, as availability expands over time.

Agentic storefronts expose only the product data you choose—catalog, pricing, availability. Sensitive business data remains private. You control what AI agents can access.
