Real-time integration with SAP, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, Epicor, and ServiceCentre. Orders, inventory, pricing, and customer data synced bidirectionally.

Shopify Plus B2B Accelerator

Built on real B2B operations. Not an app — a proven architecture we configure for your business.
Explore B2B Protocol →Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the practice of structuring your product data, website content, and technical infrastructure so that AI-powered search engines — including ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, and Gemini — surface your products and your company in their generated answers. For B2B manufacturers and distributors, GEO means ensuring that when a procurement team or AI purchasing agent asks “who sells [product category] in [region],” your catalog and your brand appear in the answer.
AI agents are already completing purchases inside Google Search, Gemini, and ChatGPT — without the buyer ever visiting your website. Google's Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP), co-developed with Shopify, is making agentic commerce real.
We help manufacturers and distributors prepare for this shift: structuring product data for AI discovery, implementing Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), and building commerce infrastructure that works for both human buyers and AI agents.
If your catalog isn't structured for machine-readable discovery, your products are invisible to the next generation of B2B purchasing. We fix that.
