It's Saturday morning, and I already have so many questions after reading about Amazon World Product Graph on Yahoo Finance / Reuters 🤔
Definitely not a dull day in the world of AI.
So, what is it? And what could it mean for brands and consumers?
Amazon's World Product Graph is an ambitious project to build a comprehensive understanding of products available anywhere — on and off Amazon.
We often forget that Amazon is not just an eCommerce player. It has AWS, deep expertise in AI and machine learning, Alexa in millions of homes (25% of the US), and of course, a massive and best commerce and fulfilment ecosystem with "Prime". And we are not even talking about Prime Video as a super OTT and Fire Stick driving Connected TV.
So, this got me thinking about a few possibilities...
1️⃣ Is Alexa gearing up to become a true super shopping agent? "Alexa ++"
After Muse, Dot, Instinct and others, are we looking at Alexa becoming an agent that can discover and shop for products both on and off Amazon?
2️⃣ What does this mean for competing shopping agents "with no trespassing from Amazon"?
With Amazon restricting access to agents like Muse and others, how powerful can these agents really become?
As a consumer, I still want my Prime delivery experience! In theory, someone could disrupt that. But will they?
3️⃣ Could Amazon fulfilment get even bigger wings? "Prime Delivery Everywhere"
If Amazon understands products beyond its own marketplace, could its fulfilment ecosystem increasingly power sales happening off Amazon too?
4️⃣ And of course, what about Amazon Pay? "It all about the money"
One of the big opportunities every platform and retailer is chasing is owning more of the shopping journey.
Could Amazon Pay become an even bigger player as agentic commerce evolves?
The bigger question: Is Amazon building a better shopping experience, or the infrastructure for shopping every time, everywhere, for everyone?
What am I missing? Anyone anymore??
