You can’t brute‑force AI into your hardest technology problems and hope something works. Your business needs more than just execution. It needs a disciplined constraints discovery process and stress-tested strategy that ties architecture, processes, customer experience, and engineering directly to revenue.

Networking & reception

Complex, constraint-heavy queries are now common in retail search, and they quickly expose the limits of legacy keyword-based systems. A request like “a gift for a 10-year-old who loves science, under 50 dollars, delivered by Friday” turns into zero relevant results and a lost shopper.

Production-grade commerce agents address this by interpreting intent, mapping it to catalog data, checking inventory and availability, applying pricing and promotion rules, and orchestrating checkout as a single guided workflow. Enterprises are already deploying these agents with Google AI Search for Commerce and Gemini Enterprise for Customer Experience (GECX) on existing commerce infrastructure.

For 2027 planning, the timing question is simple: Does your first agent go live before competitors adopt similar capabilities? This workshop focuses on how to design agents that respect margin, promotion, and inventory constraints so they operate as governed systems aligned with your commercial policies rather than generic “smart” features.

Results from recent enterprise implementations of AI Search for Commerce and GECX:
