What is Agentic Commerce?

Agentic commerce, or agentic ecommerce, is the next evolution of online shopping - where AI agents like ChatGPT or Perplexity help consumers search, compare, and buy products directly within chat or AI search. Instead of typing keywords into Google, shoppers now ask AI assistants to find, recommend, and even purchase products instantly.
