If your Shopify store isn’t “agent ready,” you’re about to be invisible. I sat down with AI expert, Gavin McKew to dig into how AI shopping agents and Shopify’s new ChatGPT checkout will change discovery, pricing, and conversion, forever. More than half of U.S. consumers already start shopping research with AI, and OpenAI just turned those chats into one-click purchases. Translation: your PDPs are now talking to robots and humans at the same time. Let’s make them fluent, fast, and profitable

Key Take-aways
  • What “agent ready” actually means for a Shopify catalog, from clean titles to machine-readable policies

  • The 6 metafields to add now so LLMs can index your products with confidence

  • Why one unusual but high-signal spec can win tie-breakers and conversions

  • How to prep for ACP so agents can complete purchases with fewer clicks

  • Pricing, bundles, and VIP logic that an AI agent can evaluate instantly

  • Post-purchase identity capture so agent-led checkouts still grow your LTV

  • A 90-day roadmap to ship the above without boiling the ocean
