Ecommerce Trends: What's different about Amazon's approach to AI commerce. Brian Warmoth | Aug 27, 2026 3.5 minutes + videos Amazon's place in Digital Commerce 360's AI Commerce Rankings reflects a deliberate strategy to favor its own AI ecosystem over third-party discovery channels, setting it apart from other retailers, including Walmart. Amazon sales may be high enough for the company to rank No. 1 in Digital Commerce 360's Top 1000 Database. However, that database - which primarily tracks online merchants' annual ecommerce sales, conversion, growth and vendor use - recently added a new ranking system where Amazon ranks significantly lower, and for good reason. In the AI Commerce Rankings, which Digital Commerce 360 and ReFiBuy launched in July, online retailers in the Top 1000 are evaluated by AI-related criteria, piecing together a picture of how well merchants are connecting with shoppers through AI channels, as well as growing that reach over time. In the latest quarterly update, assessing which online retailers AI is helping most, Amazon did not even crack the top 100. But there's more going on beneath the surface of these numbers. Why Amazon's approach to AI commerce is unique. Despite its longstanding status at No. 1 in the Top 1000 when ranked by online sales, Amazon is No. 158 in the AI Commerce Rankings. In the latter, online retailers from the Top 1000 compare based on factors including how accessible their catalog data is to third-party AI agents, how much traffic they get from third-party AI sources and the diversity of those sources. The rankings also track changes in momentum over 90-day periods. "They've said, 'We don't want bots. We're not gonna do any of these things,' so all four doors are closed, and therefore they've lost their number one spot in this," said Scot Wingo, founder and CEO at ReFiBuy. Still, Amazon's resources, agentic commerce strategy and business interests beyond retail make it an outlier for AI use in the Top 1000. First, thanks to Amazon Web Services (AWS) and the associated cloud computing and software services that it sells, Amazon is an active technology provider to other retailers and software vendors that are powering non-Amazon ecommerce sites. In addition, thanks to its nature as a technology company and Amazon-owned AI tools, such as Alexa for Shopping and Buy for Me, the company has an incentive to limit third-party access to its catalog data so it can steer customers toward its AI offerings instead. By comparison, Walmart, which is No. 2 in the Top 1000, is No. 37 in the AI Commerce Rankings. Their 121-rank gap illustrates how differently Walmart and Amazon approach agentic commerce, with Walmart far more open to third-party AI platforms. What's shifting for other online retailers in the AI Commerce Rankings. Like Walmart, other online retailers are creating new opportunities through third-party AI channels as well. And many of them rank far lower than Amazon in the Top 1000. For instance, Nixon, Online Labels and Everlane, which occupied the top three spots in the AI Commerce Rankings in Q2 2026, are No. 722, No. 814, No. 264, respectively, in the Top 1000 by ecommerce sales. That difference demonstrates the disproportionate shares of shoppers that merchants outside of the Top 100 may be reaching through platforms such as ChatGPT and Gemini. Moreover, there may be category-specific growth to be unlocked as well through AI discovery. As Wingo pointed out in a recent conversation with Digital Commerce 360, Automotive Parts & Accessories (which is a merchandise category where Amazon competes as a Mass Merchant) could be one of these. "Every automotive company has a massive catalog," Wingo explained. "And if they just would solve a couple little things on the bot friendliness and add a little bit more data to that catalog, then they'll just be off."

Shein acquires Everlane in $100m deal amid debt crisis - report. Shubhendu Vimal Chinese fashion retailer Shein is set to take over US direct-to-consumer label Everlane in a transaction worth around $100m, following board approval, Puck News reported, citing unnamed sources. The deal brings to a close a prolonged period of financial strain for Everlane, which had accumulated $90m in liabilities, comprising a $25m loan from Gordon Brothers and a $65m asset-based revolving credit facility. Private equity company and majority shareholder L Catterton and Everlane chief executive Alfred Chang had been exploring external investment options to address the debt burden, with L Catterton reportedly willing to accept either a co-investor or a complete buyout. According to the report, Shein opted for full ownership. A note to shareholders cited by Puck News confirmed that holders of common stock will receive nothing from the transaction. The report did not disclose whether the deal involves a cash transfer, nor whether preferred shareholders will receive cash or Shein equity. Everlane was established in the early 2010s around a brand identity rooted in sustainability and what it described as "radical transparency" on pricing and supply chain practices. It gained an early audience as a more affordable option within the apparel market, positioning itself as a contemporary basics brand. L Catterton acquired a minority stake in late 2020, a move that coincided with the departure of founder Michael Preysman and marketing lead Alexandra Spunt. Attempts to move the brand upmarket - targeting the space occupied by labels such as Theory and Frankie Shop - did not succeed, and the brand came under growing competitive pressure. The purchase represents a striking turn for a label whose founding principles sit in direct contrast to Shein's business model. Retail Insight Network has approached Everlane and L Catterton for comment.

Must read: Adriano Goldschmied passes away at 82, A look at Emma Grede's new book. Plus, Everlane is being sued. Apr 6, 2026 12:00 PM EDT These are the stories making headlines in fashion on Monday. Adriano Goldschmied passes away at 82. On Sunday, Italian designer Adriano Goldschmied died at 82 years old as a result of a battle with cancer. Known for pioneering work in the denim industry, helping to elevate jeans as a designer item, he shaped brands including Diesel, Reply, Gap 1969, AG and Goldsign. {Sourcing Journal/paywalled} A look at Emma Grede's new book. In Emma Grede's new book, "Start With Yourself," the entrepreneur talked about her work-life balance, especially as a mother of four. She criticized "helicopter parenting," says she enjoys her work and doesn't want to solely center her life around her kids. Her book also offers career advice and addresses imposter syndrome. {Wall Street Journal/paywalled} ADVERTISING Everlane is being sued. A landlord is suing Everlane for failing to pay rent on its San Francisco headquarters. The lawsuit says the company owes more than $51,000 and was served a three-day notice on March 18 to pay or vacate. In a responding statement, Everlane said it's having "good-faith" conversations with the landlord and that the filing was a "routine procedural step." The company confirmed it will move its headquarters to Los Angeles in August. {Puck/paywalled} How the iran war is impacting sportswear brands. As the U.S.-Iran war continues to drive up oil prices, it also disrupts the global supply chain, thanks to significant inflation in supply, shipping and materials costs. The domino effect is particularly hitting sportswear brands - most performance gear and materials are derived from oil -, as labels are on the brink of being forced to adjust their prices if the war's disruption looks long-term. {Business of Fashion/paywalled}
San Francisco-based Everlane is relocating to Los Angeles after reports emerged that the company owes $51,273.40 in overdue rent. The direct-to-consumer brand plans to consolidate operations in LA with a centralised office by August. The move follows a lawsuit from landlord Chris Hickey, who served Everlane a three-day notice on 18 March to settle the balance or vacate its second-floor space at 2150 Folsom Street. Everlane has occupied the location since signing the lease in 2014. The company stated it has been in "good faith discussions" with its landlords and called the filing "a routine procedural step". Everlane did not disclose how many employees will be affected. The announcement comes during a challenging period for millennial-focused DTC brands, with Allbirds being acquired for just $39 million yesterday.
