Description:
In this quick solo episode, I dive into something I just discovered today: Manus.ai, an AI research tool that’s a little like ChatGPT but with way more structure—and it even built me a website based on one prompt.
I talk through what I learned in real time about agentic commerce, a concept that might totally reshape how we shop online. Instead of traditional search results, imagine having a personal AI agent that understands your intent, does the digging, and just gives you what you need—like, actually helpful answers.
We touch on:
What agentic commerce is
How platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Manus are leaning in
How big players like Amazon and Walmart are reacting
What this shift could mean for retailers, SEO, and shopping experiences
It’s raw, it’s fresh, and it’s me geeking out about what could be the future of e-commerce.
