Top Agentic Commerce Platforms in the US (2026): For Shoppers and Merchants
TL;DR
TL;DR
US shoppers can use agentic commerce platforms today: Glance, your personal shopper (a consumer AI shopping agent that finds, styles and buys with your approval), plus ChatGPT, Google AI Mode and Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, Perplexity and Amazon's Alexa for Shopping. Merchants use different platforms to sell: Glance AI for Shopify, Alhena AI and Rep AI put an assistant on your store, Shopify, Salesforce, Adobe Commerce, BigCommerce and commercetools make a store agent-ready, and Stripe, PayPal, Mastercard and Visa handle agent payments.
- Shoppers have several options. Glance, ChatGPT, Google, Copilot, Perplexity and Amazon work differently, and checkout rules vary by surface.
- A store can be agentic two ways. Put an agent on the store itself, as Glance AI for Shopify does, or list its products in outside AI channels, as Shopify's Agentic Storefronts do.
- Add payments through your processor. Each major provider supports more than one agent protocol.
- Fix product data. Agents compare on price, stock and attributes, so feed quality decides what they show.
- Choose where to be found. Glance, ChatGPT, Google, Copilot and Perplexity reach shoppers differently, and checkout varies by surface.
- Support is not readiness. Check what has shipped, not only what was announced.
Agentic commerce is online shopping in which AI agents find, compare and, with your approval, buy for you, as what agentic commerce is explains. A platform here means software that shoppers use to buy through an agent, or that merchants adopt to sell through one. Who leads each layer is covered in who is leading agentic commerce in 2026. This guide instead helps you choose, by the stack you already run and the job you need done. Visibility-tracking tools and feed infrastructure are covered in which platforms help brands get discovered by AI shopping agents, so this guide leaves them out. It separates three things people call agentic: listing your products in outside AI channels, putting an agent on your own store, and giving your own agent shopping knowledge.
Disclosure: Glance published this guide and appears in it, so Glance is listed first wherever it appears and everyone else follows alphabetically. Every item carries a status and a dated source.
How We Chose
- A dated public source. A press release, product page or trusted report, not a rumor.
- US merchants can use it. Most agent checkout is US-first.
- A clear status. Live, Rolling out or Committed, so a promise is never presented as a product.
- A stated limit. Each item says what to check before you commit.

Platforms for Shoppers vs Platforms for Merchants
The phrase covers two kinds of products. Consumer-side agents are what shoppers use to find and buy. Merchant-side platforms are what businesses use to sell through agents. Glance serves both sides, with a consumer agent for shoppers and the Glance AI for Shopify app, Glance MCP and feed routes below for merchants.

| Consumer-side agents | Shoppers | Glance, Amazon, ChatGPT, Google AI Mode and Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, Perplexity | Find, compare and, on some, buy for you |

Which Platform for Which Need
| I want to... | Start with | Why |
| Shop through an AI agent in the US as a consumer | Glance, ChatGPT, Google AI Mode and Gemini, Copilot or Perplexity | Each works differently, so see the shopper table below |
| Put an agent on my own Shopify store | Glance AI for Shopify, Alhena AI or Rep AI | On-store assistants. Glance's free app adds selfie try-on and an AI styling chat, while Alhena AI and Rep AI focus on shopping and support chat |
| Give my own AI agent shopping knowledge | Glance MCP | Gives any agent visual search, style recommendations, try-on and curated collections |
| Add shopping to a device or assistant | Glance, as in Lenovo and Motorola Qira | Users who express shopping intent reach Glance's discovery, styling and recommendations |
| Get found by shoppers using AI | Glance, ChatGPT, Google, Copilot or Perplexity | Each surface has different checkout rules |
| List my Shopify products in outside AI channels | Shopify Agentic Storefronts | Active by default for eligible stores and managed in Shopify Admin |

| Accept agent payments | Stripe, PayPal, Mastercard or Visa | Each reaches merchants through partners, so start with your processor |
Where Glance fits. Glance is your personal shopper, not a storefront platform or a payments provider, and it offers three routes. It reaches shoppers directly on phones, TVs and PCs, with native PayPal checkout for supported merchants. It makes a Shopify store agentic through the free Glance AI for Shopify app. And it gives other agents and assistants shopping knowledge, through Glance MCP and integrations such as Qira. Enterprise brands can also connect existing feeds through Productsup, and you can request a demo. Shoppers use Glance free, and it shows products from partner brands.
The page runs from the shopper outward: shopper platforms first, then the store, your own agent, payments and product data.
For Shoppers: Platforms You Can Use in the US Today
These are the agentic commerce platforms a US shopper can use today. Each platform's launch dates and status are tracked in layer 1 of the leaders guide.
| Platform | What you can do | Where checkout happens | What you need |
| Glance | Your personal shopper: see complete looks on yourself from a selfie before you search, chat to refine them, and buy | Natively with PayPal for supported merchants; Qira shopping ends on the retailer's site | The Glance app on iPhone or Android, a supported Samsung Galaxy lock screen, a Samsung or Android TV (opt-in on Galaxy and Android TV), or an iPhone or iPad with iOS 27, where you say "Hey Siri, Let's Glance." Free to use |
| Amazon (Alexa for Shopping) | Ask about Amazon products by text or voice | Inside Amazon | The Amazon app or Alexa. Amazon products only |
| ChatGPT | Find and compare products in chat | On the merchant's own checkout, since March 2026 | A ChatGPT account |
| Google AI Mode and Gemini | Search, compare and check out in the experience | In the experience for eligible merchants, using Google Pay | Google Search AI Mode or the Gemini app |
| Microsoft Copilot | Find products and check out in chat | In Copilot, with PayPal, Shopify or Stripe merchants | Microsoft Copilot |
| Perplexity | Research products and buy with PayPal | In Perplexity; the retailer stays merchant of record | Perplexity. Free for US shoppers |
Checkout rules differ by surface, so check who approves the purchase before you rely on any of them. Glance builds a look and asks you to buy, and most other agents also leave the final approval with you.
For Merchants, Group 1: Platforms That Make a Store Agentic
Two different jobs sit under this heading. The first puts an agent on your own store, so shoppers get help on your pages. The second makes your products available inside other companies' AI channels. Many stores need both.
Put an agent on your own store
| Platform | What it offers merchants | Status | Check before you commit |
| Glance AI for Shopify | Shoppers upload a selfie to see themselves in your products and chat with an AI styling agent, with no rebuild or photoshoot (Shopify App Store) | Live (free to install) | Shopify stores only. It adds try-on and styling on your pages and does not list products in outside AI channels |
| Alhena AI | An all-in-one shopping assistant, sales AI and support AI that recommends products, answers order questions and syncs catalog, inventory and discounts (Shopify App Store) | Live (Shopify App Store) | Built for brand sites. It escalates complex chats to a helpdesk such as Gorgias or Zendesk |
| Rep AI | A ChatGPT-powered assistant that acts as a sales agent, recommends products and answers support questions (Shopify App Store) | Live (Shopify App Store) | Sales-first. It hands off to a helpdesk such as Gorgias (Gorgias) |
Support-first helpdesks such as Gorgias also offer shopping assistants, according to Intercom's comparison, so check whether you want a sales assistant or a support tool.
List your products in outside AI channels
| Platform | What it offers merchants | Status | Check before you commit |
| Shopify | Agentic Storefronts give access to AI channels including ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, AI Mode in Google Search and the Gemini app from Shopify Admin; the Agentic plan lets non-Shopify brands add products to Shopify Catalog (Shopify) | Live (March 24, 2026) | Eligibility and checkout differ by channel; ChatGPT purchases finish in an in-app browser on your store (Shopify setup guide) |
| Adobe Commerce | Committed to supporting UCP and ACP, building on earlier AP2 support (Adobe) | Committed (February 18, 2026; Digital Commerce 360) | A commitment, not a shipped feature. Ask which capabilities are live on your version |
| BigCommerce (Commerce.com) | Stripe Agentic Commerce Suite integration and UCP endorsement; agent-ready feeds through Feedonomics reported for April 2026 (Project Thunder) | Live and rolling out (December 2025 to April 2026) | Confirm which agents you must apply to |
| commercetools | AI Hub, an add-on that connects your commerce data to Gemini from discovery through checkout using UCP, to ChatGPT for discovery, and to Stripe's Agentic Commerce Suite (commercetools) | Live (AI Hub generally available July 30, 2026) | Access is through your commercetools Customer Success Manager, and ChatGPT is discovery only (commercetools AI Hub docs) |
| Salesforce Agentforce Commerce | Shopper, Buyer and Merchant agents; ChatGPT checkout through ACP reported live in July 2026, and Google channels through UCP (eLogic) | Live (reported generally available June 24, 2026) | The agents run only on Salesforce B2C and B2B Commerce. Confirm details with Salesforce |
WooCommerce merchants should check their Stripe and plugin options, because reports on native agent support differ.
For Merchants, Group 2: Tools That Give Your Own Agent Shopping Knowledge
Some businesses already have an AI agent, chatbot or assistant and want it to understand products, style and shopping intent. These tools plug that knowledge into an existing agent.
| Tool | What it gives your agent | Status | Check before you commit |
| Glance MCP | Shopping tools any agent can call: visual product search, style recommendations, virtual try-on and curated collections. It is model-agnostic, so it works with the agent you already run (Glance MCP guide, Glance business) | Live (connect with OAuth 2.0) | Fashion-focused. It works with MCP-compatible agents, so ask Glance about limits and supported surfaces |
| Akeneo MCP server | A native MCP server that governs how enterprise AI models represent your products (IT Brief) | Live (January 2026) | Product-information software, so it assumes an Akeneo setup |
Lenovo and Motorola Qira shows the idea in practice. In Qira on supported Lenovo PCs and tablets and Motorola phones, users who express shopping intent can access Glance's product discovery, styling and recommendation capabilities, then visit the merchant to complete a purchase.
For Merchants, Group 3: Payments Platforms That Handle Agent Checkout
Payments providers reach most merchants through existing partners, so the practical step is to ask. Status and dates for each program are tracked in layer 3 of the leaders guide.
| Provider | What to ask | Where to start |
| Mastercard | Does my acquirer or platform connect to Agent Connect, and can I choose which agents to connect? | Mastercard's announcement says merchants decide where and how they participate |
| PayPal | Can I get access to its agentic commerce services and Agent Ready? | PayPal's launch announcement; the Glance release points merchants to paypal.ai |
| Stripe | Is the Agentic Commerce Suite enabled on my account, and which agents can reach my store? | Your Stripe Dashboard |
| Visa | Is Intelligent Commerce Connect available through my processor, or is it still a pilot? | Your processor or acquirer |
For Merchants, Group 4: Product Data Platforms That Prepare Your Catalog
| Platform | What it offers merchants | Status | Check before you commit |
| Akeneo | Stripe Agentic Commerce Suite partnership and a native MCP server (CMOtech) | Live (January to February 2026) | Product-information software, so it assumes an Akeneo setup |
| Productsup | Partnership with Glance so enterprise brands can connect existing product feeds without custom APIs (Business Wire) | Live (August 11, 2026) | Aimed at enterprise brands |
| Salsify | OpenAI syndication channel that sends brand data through ACP (Digital Commerce 360) | Live (October 2025) | Helps discovery in ChatGPT, where native checkout was scaled back |
| Syndigo | OpenAI Connect and Syndigo GEO to publish product content into ChatGPT using ACP specifications (Business Wire) | Live (October 20, 2025) | Built for brands and retailers with large catalogs |
How to Choose
- Start from your storefront. Your commerce platform decides which agent channels are easiest to reach.
- Trust what has shipped. Read the status column, and ask each vendor for the live date of any feature you need.
- Pick payments through your processor. Agent payments reach most merchants through existing partners.
- Clean your product data once. Accurate price, stock and attributes serve every agent.
- Measure with a holdout group. AI-referred shoppers may simply have higher intent. The merchant checklist has the full steps.
Three Mistakes to Avoid
- Treating protocol support as readiness. Adobe's announcement is a commitment, and a vendor can list a protocol before its checkout works.
- Counting on in-chat checkout in ChatGPT. OpenAI moved ChatGPT toward discovery, so plan for click-through.
- Assuming one platform covers every agent. Surfaces and protocols differ, so most merchants combine a storefront, a payments provider, a feed and one or more reach platforms.

What is the difference between agentic commerce platforms for consumers and for merchants?
Consumer-side platforms, such as Glance, ChatGPT, Google and Perplexity, are what shoppers use to find and buy.
