Your Shopify Store Is Already Inside ChatGPT — Here's What That Actually Means

Your Shopify store is now live inside ChatGPT, Copilot, and Google AI Mode—and most merchants have no idea it happened.
In this solo episode, Steve breaks down what Shopify's agentic storefronts launch actually means for your business:
- Why AI-referred shoppers convert 31% higher than other traffic sources—and how to show up before competitors do
- The Universal Commerce Protocol Shopify co-built with Google, Walmart, and Visa that's quietly reshaping product discovery
- Three actions to take this week: confirm your toggles, audit your top product titles for Answer Engine Optimization, and start tracking AI attribution data
Whether you're doing $10K months or $10M years, this is the distribution shift you don't want to sit out.
