Nudge, a company building commerce infrastructure for AI shopping, launched its Agentic Commerce Platform and announced **$1.1M** in pre-seed funding on **June 24, 2026** in **NEW YORK, NY**. Investors include **s16vc**, **Antler**, and operators from **Shopify**, **Nutanix**, and **Postman**. The platform gives commerce brands a system to measure AI visibility, enrich product catalogs for agent recommendations, and convert AI discovery into revenue. It operates across three layers: AI visibility (measuring how brands are ranked across **ChatGPT**, **Claude**, **Gemini**, **Perplexity**, and **AI Overviews**), catalog enrichment (structuring product catalogs for agents using protocols like **ACP** and **UCP**, with fixes pushed to storefronts such as **Shopify**, **WooCommerce**, and **Salesforce Commerce Cloud**), and shoppable funnels (converting shoppers from AI discovery within the brand’s existing storefront). Co-founder and CEO **Kanishka Thakur** stated, “Being recommended is the start. Being bought is the win.”
