Can AI agents buy at BigCommerce?
PilotPlatform
Pilot means a limited test, or access the company has not opened to everyone. Commerce.com turned WebMCP on by default for eligible BigCommerce stores so a shopper's browser agent can search the catalog and fill a cart, while checkout stays on the merchant's site.
Note on this rowCloudflare's October 21, 2026 post says WebMCP is still an experimental browser standard, available behind Chrome flags, in Chrome Origin Trials, in some agentic browsers, and in developer tools. Merchants can turn it off. The agent does not take payment. Eligible B2C and B2B stores also expose server-side Storefront MCPs for agents that connect from outside the browser. Commerce.com said no code changes are required (https://blog.cloudflare.com/webmcp-commerce/).
