AI agents can now shop better than humans.
Just texted mate to lock down a deal before Black Friday no tabs, no codes to hunt, handles the whole checkout.

Meet Mate! A specialized ecom agent built on a network of 200,000 merchant partnerships.
The agentic consumer era is barely 80 days old: We believe agent-driven commerce will become a trillion dollar market over the next decade.
But there's a fundamental problem with general purpose agents (Grok Bot, Instinct etc): They're built on top of the the commerce ecosystem, not embedded directly into it.
We've spent the last 3 years in stealth building that infrastructure: 200,000 merchant partnerships powering cashback, exclusive discounts, package tracking and personalized savings (as well as the ability to share links and get paid for them!)
The result is Mate. An agent built specifically for commerce, with a merchant network that general purpose agents can't replicate.
The next wave of agents will be specialized and built on the back of deep partnership moats.
Super proud of our team and all the merchants who joined our network to build this! Enjoy!View quoted post on X
