Modern shoppers arrive pre-shaped by Meta, TikTok, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and AI search. They are not browsing. They are deciding. But the store treats every visitor the same. The gap between how traffic arrives and how stores receive it is where revenue leaks. We call it the Discovery-Conversion Gap. It is structural, it is growing, and it cannot be solved with better A/B tests or ecommerce personalization. ## What Spangle Does Spangle is the intelligence layer for agentic commerce. It sits between traffic sources and the storefront, synthesizes intent signals in real time, and dynamically generates the right experience for each shopper before the page loads. Landing page layout, product selection, merchandising order, and content -- all adapted per visitor, per session, in real time. For human shoppers and AI shopping agents alike. No cookies, no login, no prior session data required. Your store. Finally thinking for itself. This is what we call intent resolution: adding intent as a first-class primitive to the commerce stack. The decision happens before the page renders, not inside it. Every other AI commerce tool, personalization engine, and recommendation system works after the shopper lands. Spangle works before. ## Capabilities - Dynamic Storefront Experiences: Self-optimizing landing pages for paid traffic, contextual commerce experiences shaped by how each visitor arrived - AI-Native Search and Discovery: Context-aware product discovery and AI search that resolves intent, not just keywords - Intelligent Recommendations: Real-time product recommendations driven by session context, not behavioral history - Conversion Optimization: Intent-driven conversion rate lift and ROAS improvement without A/B testing backlogs - Closed-Loop Intelligence: What converts flows back into acquisition. Feedback loop between ad spend and on-site conversion for continuous ROAS optimization - Agent-Native Architecture: Detects AI agent and conversational commerce traffic from ChatGPT, Perplexity, and autonomous shopping agents, and serves structured, context-aware responses ## How Spangle Compares Spangle replaces the role of ecommerce personalization platforms but takes a fundamentally different approach. Traditional personalization tools like Bloomreach, Nosto, and Dynamic Yield build behavior graphs -- they record clicks, sessions, and page views, then adapt after the shopper lands. Spangle builds an intent graph: it connects intent signals to the experience generated to the conversion outcome, and learns which experiences best resolve each intent cluster. Behavior graphs describe actions. Intent graphs explain why the visit happened -- before a single action is taken. Consumer-side AI shopping agents like Phia and Daydream are building conversational commerce for shoppers. Spangle is the seller-side infrastructure -- the intelligence layer those agents need on the brand's end to get structured, intent-aware responses. Agents don't browse. They query. Most commerce stacks cannot respond. Spangle can. ## The Compounding Moat Most commerce technology knows what gets clicked. Spangle knows what gets bought. Every transaction enriches a brand-specific model that compounds with every session. No generic AI trained on everyone's data can replicate it. No late entrant with more capital can buy their way to it. The longer a brand runs on Spangle, the wider the intelligence gap. "The models reflect our brand and get smarter over time versus generic AI solutions." -- Colleen Waters, VP E-commerce, Steve Madden ## Results - [REVOLVE](https://spangle.ai/case-studies/ai-powered-contextual-shopping-experiences-2): +50% revenue per visit, 2x ROAS - [Steve Madden](https://spangle.ai): +46% add-to-cart rate, -57% cost per visit - [Alexander Wang](https://spangle.ai/case-studies/redefining-luxury-commerce-through-ai-innovation): AI agent conversion validated - [Anne Klein](https://spangle.ai/case-studies/ai-powered-contextual-shopping-experiences) - [SPARC Group](https://spangle.ai/case-studies/unlocking-efficiency-with-ai) - Zero churn.

The store hasn't. OpenAI, Meta, Google, and Perplexity are all building AI-powered shopping and conversational commerce surfaces. The discovery layer is fragmenting. AI shopping agents are arriving with intent already formed. McKinsey estimates $1T in agentic commerce by 2030. Meta CPMs are up 19% while revenue per visit declines 9.5%. The demand side keeps accelerating. The seller side has almost no infrastructure to receive it. Protocol wars are underway -- ACP (OpenAI/Stripe), UCP (Google/Shopify), MCP (Anthropic) -- but the intent resolution layer beneath all of them remains unbuilt. Spangle is building it. ## Platform Compatibility - Shopify Plus - Adobe Commerce (Magento) - Salesforce Commerce Cloud - Custom commerce stacks ## Company - Founded: 2024 - Headquarters: Greater Seattle Area, WA - CEO: Maju Kuruvilla (former Amazon VP) - CTO: Fei Wang (former Amazon Principal Engineer) - Funding: $21M ($6M seed, $15M Series A) - Investors: Madrona Ventures, NewRoad Capital, DNX Ventures, Streamlined Ventures - Website: https://spangle.ai ## Contact - Sales: hello@spangle.ai - [Book a Demo](https://spangle.ai/book-a-demo) - [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/spangleai) - [Twitter](https://twitter.com/spangle_ai) ## Careers - [AI/ML Scientist](https://ats.rippling.com/en-GB/spangleai/jobs/75d45663-7438-41b3-9f42-ddaa8666a45b) - [Senior Fullstack Engineer](https://ats.rippling.com/en-GB/spangleai/jobs/724a2b2a-84fa-42fe-846e-0b6350c56edf) - [VP of Sales](https://ats.rippling.com/en-GB/spangleai/jobs/fe0bc639-5378-4efd-a1ea-75d24e1d83bb) - [Customer Technical Account Manager](https://ats.rippling.com/en-GB/spangleai/jobs/b3115bf8-f61b-4848-b366-ab1d24dc6c76) - [Enterprise Account Executive](https://ats.rippling.com/en-GB/spangleai/jobs/7774f583-3ddf-444e-bb3d-b9a5595495e9)
