Agentic Commerce OS is live!
A CDP that sits in your data path, AI segmentation you can actually talk to, and a shopping assistant that acts more like a companion, turning browsers into buyers.
Commerce infrastructure just changed.
Your data transfer bill went up and nobody launched a campaign.
One crawler pulled more bandwidth than every real shopper on your site combined.
You paid for both.
10 deep articles on one topic usually beat 50 shallow articles when the goal is AI citation value.
Depth compounds into topical authority that AI engines recognize.
For ecommerce merchants, the opportunity is owning the answers to the questions your buyers ask AI.
"What do we still control?" is the question for any infra eval.
Your code, pipeline and workflow are yours. Data plane and AI infra are ours. The boundary doesn't move.
A CRM tells you who your customers are. A CDP tells you what they're doing right now.
For ecommerce AI that shifts recommendations mid-session, you need the CDP, and it has to sit inline in the request path.
