Inception for agentic commerce

Agents are shopping your site.
Now you can influence it.

Inception Agents sits between your store and every major AI agent. One activation makes your store natively discoverable, intelligently presented, and deterministically attributable across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, and Grok. Plus the intent graph and audience activation that turn agent visits into measurable revenue.

The bridge between commerce and agents

Your store wasn't built for agents. Agents weren't built for your store. Let's fix that, instantly.

AI agents (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, Grok) are becoming the buying interface for e-commerce. The commerce platforms you run on (Shopify, Woo, BigCommerce, SFCC, Magento, Vercel) weren't built to be discoverable, intelligible, or transactable to agents. One activation makes your store native to every major agent surface, regardless of which commerce stack you run on.

Discoverable.

JSON-LD product graphs, agent-native endpoints, and protocol surfaces (MCP, ACP, UCP) so every major agent can find, query, and transact against your catalog. No custom integration per agent platform.

Intelligible.

A decision engine that adapts what content gets served to which agent based on observed performance. Same URL, richer response when an agent is reading. The agents prefer our endpoints over scraping HTML because the data is unambiguous and structured for how they reason.

Attributable.

Inception Trace stitches every agent research session to the human shopper who arrives afterward. Deterministic attribution from agent visit to sale, across every agent platform, with no cookies, no fingerprints, no inference. Every major agent voluntarily routes through Trace in production.

01 — How it works

Three systems, one layer. Understand. Act. Convert.

Detection feeds the graph. The graph arms your agent. Your agent converts. Every interaction makes the next one sharper.

01 Detection + Intent Graph

Understand.

Every AI agent that visits your site is detected in under 5ms. Their intent — what they're evaluating, who they're comparing you to, what the customer behind them wants — flows into your Intent Graph.

  • Behavioral fingerprinting across 7 AI platforms
  • Intent classification — product, pricing, comparison, evaluation
  • Living Intent Graph that compounds with every visit
02 AI Agent + Optimization

Act.

Your own agent — with full access to your product data, pricing, inventory, and competitive intelligence — engages visiting agents on your behalf. It serves optimized content tailored to the platform, the intent, and the competitive landscape.

  • Full product context — catalog, pricing, reviews, positioning
  • Native tool calling — MCP, ACP, UCP protocols
  • Platform-specific optimization for ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and more
03 Intent-Targeted Re-activation

Convert.

An agent evaluated your product for a customer. That customer didn't convert immediately. Now you re-activate them with targeted ads informed by exactly what the agent was looking for. Intent-level precision. Closed-loop attribution.

  • Intent-driven audiences built from agent signals
  • Re-activation across major ad platforms
  • Full attribution from agent visit to sale

02 — Your store's agent

Your store's response to every visiting agent.

When an AI agent arrives at your store, you need a way to respond intelligently. Inception Agents deploys your store's own AI agent, with full access to your product data, pricing, inventory, and competitive intelligence, that engages visiting agents on your behalf. Optimized content tailored to which platform is asking, what the visiting agent's intent is, and what the customer behind it wants.

  • Full product context
    Every SKU, every variant, every price point, every review. Your agent has the complete picture.
  • Native tool calling
    MCP, ACP, and UCP protocols for structured operations. 99% reliability vs 60–80% for visual automation.
  • Verified transactions
    Cryptographic verification on every action. Only pay for confirmed conversions.
03 — The intent signal you're missing

Your customers are telling AI agents exactly what they want. Now you can capture that purchase intent.

A customer tells ChatGPT exactly what they need — budget, features, preferences. That agent visits your site, evaluates your product in seconds, and either recommends you or moves on. You never see the intent. You never get a second chance. Until now.

01 / 03

Invisible Intent

AI agents carry rich purchase intent — budget, preferences, comparison context — but none of it shows up in your analytics. The most valuable signal on the web is invisible to you.

02 / 03

One-Shot Evaluation

Agents don't browse. They evaluate once and decide. If your content isn't structured for that instant evaluation, you lose the recommendation — and the customer behind it.

03 / 03

No Feedback Loop

You can't improve what you can't measure. Without capturing agent intent signals, there's no way to learn what works, iterate, or re-engage the customer who was ready to buy.

04 — Intent Graph

Your new data asset only Inception Agents can build

Inception Agents sits between your store and every major AI agent. We see intent signals nobody else can capture. The Intent Graph is a living, compounding data structure that maps every agent visit, every comparison, every constraint, every research question. The longer Inception Agents runs on your store, the richer the graph gets.

  • Compounding data enrichment
    The graph gets richer with every interaction. Competitors starting later can never match your accumulated intelligence.
  • Cross-platform patterns
    How ChatGPT evaluates differs from Gemini differs from Perplexity. The graph captures platform-specific behaviors and preferences.
  • Feeds everything downstream
    Your AI agent uses graph context for better answers. Your content optimizes around real demand. Your re-activation targets with intent-level precision.

05 — The closed loop

Convert abandoned shoppers with hyper-targeted intent audiences.

An AI agent evaluated your product for a customer. They didn't convert. Because Inception Agents sits between every AI agent and your store, we know what the agent was evaluating and which customer arrived afterward. Now you re-activate them with ads informed by their actual intent. Intent-level precision. Closed-loop attribution. No other platform sits where we do.

06 — The compounding advantage

The graph gets smarter with every interaction. Your competitors can't catch up.

Every agent visit enriches your Intent Graph. Every interaction trains your AI agent. Every conversion sharpens your re-activation targeting. The longer you run, the wider your advantage grows.

07 — Five layers of agent readiness
Before

How agents see you now.

An AI agent lands on your PDP. It sees a shell of divs and JS-rendered prices. It can't resolve sizing. It can't confirm stock. It cites a competitor.

Layer 01

JSON-LD + discovery links, always on.

Agents find an unambiguous product graph the instant they arrive. Price, inventory, variants, return policy — resolvable, not guessed.

Layer 02

Content that reshapes for the agent that asked.

The same URL returns richer, agent-optimized responses when an LLM is reading. Humans get the page. Agents get the graph.

Layer 03

/agent/* routes for machine callers.

First-class endpoints your customer's agent can reach directly — product, availability, compare, quote — with cacheable JSON and typed errors.

Layer 04

Forms and checkouts optimized for CUAs.

Computer-use agents complete flows reliably — no popups, no ambiguous labels, no layout shifts. Designed for 99% tool-call success.

Layer 05

Claude-native tool calling over your catalog.

Expose search, compare, availability, and quote as MCP tools. Every action cryptographically verified. Only pay on confirmed conversion.
