Show HN: Kifly – Expose your ecommerce store to AI agents via MCP [video]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gfn03LKRus
1•roberttk1•49m ago
Hi HN, I am building https://kifly.ai/, to make ecommerce stores discoverable and purchasable by AI agents. Enabling payments using traditional methods and stablecoins for physical goods.

With Kifly a seller can easily sync their inventory and we create a vectorized database of their products/goods and make it visible through MCP. Sellers get: - A sales agent that lives on their existing site (Shopify, WooCommerce etc.). It helps customers find and purchase products seamlessly using natural language. Collapsing the search bar and checkout page. - Their own seller scoped MCP they can hand to any customer/org for secure, faster automation and transactions. -Discovery and checkout in Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Siri AI through the network wide Kifly MCP (https://kifly.ai/api/mcp)

I believe in the near future everyone will have an agent, every phone or device will constitute one. Organizations will also have sort of super agents for complex provisioning and restocking flows. In the future when someone asks " Hey Siri I want to buy ... " Kifly becomes the place the agent that already know your preferences comes to find what you need.

This is still early and I am building this solo at the moment. I would love your feedback on agentic commerce and what I have so far https://kifly.ai/ .

40 second Demo of the sales agent: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVZlqNGTzIM

Built on UCP, payments through Stripe, Coinbase, x402 (beta) with future plans to support OpenUSD for global transactions.
