To prepare for agentic commerce – the shift where AI agents discover, compare, and choose products on a shopper’s behalf, often with little manual browsing – you need to make your product data readable to AI assistants. <\/p>

These assistants read your fields, descriptions, and policies when they compare products on a shopper’s behalf, rather than your page design or photography. What they can read determines what they recommend.<\/p>

    Enter your product’s brand, identifier codes, and key attributes as dedicated fields in your product editor: AI assistants identify products from form fields, not from the paragraph text in the description.<\/p>

    Three identifiers are particularly important:<\/p>
