    Shopify just dropped its biggest update of the year — and if you're in ecom, this one actually matters. In this latest episode of Limited Supply, Nik breaks down the five Shopify announcements that are going to change how brands build, sell, and scale in the age of AI commerce. From making your entire product catalog readable by LLMs to a massive affiliate play that could reshape the publisher ecosystem, Shopify isn't just keeping up with AI — they're betting the whole roadmap on it. Nik covers the vibe coding integration that finally makes one-shot landing pages a reality inside your main Shopify store, why Sidekick is actually worth your attention now, and how the Shop app is positioning itself to become the default shopping agent across every AI surface you use. Plus: the smaller updates that quietly matter — A/B testing on live themes, scheduled go-lives, WhatsApp as a native marketing channel, and what checkout intelligence actually means for conversion. If you've been watching the agentic commerce wave from the sidelines, this is your signal to start paying attention. --- What’s Instant?
