Get your 6-digit pairing code from the AgentCart dashboard
AI agents are the new shoppers. Platforms like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Perplexity are increasingly recommending and purchasing products on behalf of users. AgentCart makes your WooCommerce store visible and shoppable to these AI agents.
What this plugin does:
- Connects your WooCommerce store to the AgentCart platform with a simple 6-digit pairing code
- Enables AI agents to discover and search your full product catalog
- Allows AI agents to create checkout sessions so customers can complete purchases
- Tracks which orders originate from AI agent interactions
- Keeps your product data synced automatically
How AI agents shop your store:
- An AI agent (ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.) receives a shopping request from a user
- The agent discovers your store through AgentCart’s Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP)
- It searches your catalog, compares products, and selects the best match
- The agent creates a checkout session and hands the customer a link to complete payment
Your existing WooCommerce checkout, payments, and shipping all work as normal — the agent handles discovery and selection, the customer handles payment.
Key features on AgentCart:
- AI-readiness scoring — See how well your store is optimized for AI agents
- Product optimization — AI-enriched descriptions that help agents understand and recommend your products
- Agent analytics — Track which AI platforms visit your store, what they search for, and what converts
- A/B testing — Test different product descriptions to see which performs better with AI agents
- Agent Playground — See exactly what AI agents see when they shop your store
External services
This plugin relies on the following external services. Connecting to AgentCart is the core purpose of the plugin and is required for it to function.
1. AgentCart (agentcart.io / app.agentcart.io)
AgentCart is the platform this plugin connects your WooCommerce store to. It makes your products discoverable and purchasable by AI shopping agents (such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Perplexity).
What data is sent to AgentCart (app.agentcart.io), and when:
- When you pair your store (one-time, after you enter the 6-digit code): your store URL, store name, WooCommerce currency, WooCommerce version, and the auto-generated WooCommerce REST API credentials are sent so AgentCart can communicate with your store.
- When the plugin retrieves your store’s public agent URL (the “UCP slug”): your AgentCart merchant ID is sent so AgentCart can return the slug.
- When you disconnect or deactivate the plugin: your AgentCart merchant ID is sent so AgentCart can mark your store as disconnected.
After pairing, AgentCart uses the stored REST API credentials to read your product catalog (titles, descriptions, prices, images, availability) and to create checkout sessions when an AI agent initiates a purchase. No customer personal data is shared with AgentCart unless an AI agent initiates a checkout session.

2. Universal Commerce Protocol specification (ucp.dev)
AgentCart exposes your store to AI agents using the open Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP). The discovery manifest this plugin serves at /.well-known/ucp contains https://ucp.dev/... URLs that identify the UCP version, specification, and JSON schemas an agent should use to interpret your store.
These URLs are static references embedded in the manifest text. The plugin does not send any of your store or customer data to ucp.dev, and does not make any requests to it — the links simply tell AI agents which protocol and schemas the manifest follows.
