Making Your Business "Agent-Legible": Practical Playbook for the AI-Commerce Era

In part two of our deep dive into agentic commerce, Jess brings back her colleague Nathalie Lethbridge to answer the question every SMB is asking: How do I prepare for a world where AI agents are the middlemen between customers and products?


Last week, we explored the power struggle between Amazon's walled garden and OpenAI/Perplexity's open-web vision.


This week, we get tactical. Nathalie walks through the practical framework for making your e-commerce site "agent-legible" - helping your products become visible and accessible to AI agents that will soon be shopping on behalf of customers.


We cover structured data requirements, markdown optimization, compliance considerations, and why smaller businesses actually have an advantage over giants in this transition.


Plus, this week's AI news includes TikTok's new controls for AI-generated content and a fascinating Silicon Valley moment where 300+ AI insiders publicly named the startups they'd short.
