Everything you need to know about signalCommerce, protocol intelligence, and getting discovered by autonomous AI agents

signalCommerce is the protocol intelligence platform for agentic commerce, built by OrcaQubits. It includes two products: the signalCommerce : Agentic Simulator (a flight simulator for testing AI shopping agents against your storefront) and Agent Activity Pulse (real-time agent attribution, conversion insights, and protocol diagnostics in production).

The signalCommerce : Agentic Simulator is a pre-production testing tool that runs AI shopping agents against your storefront before they transact real money. It includes 57 pre-built scenarios, 21 fault injections, 8-dimension persona testing, and covers 5 core protocols (UCP, ACP, MCP, A2A, WebMCP). Think of it as a flight simulator for AI commerce.

Agent Activity Pulse is a live production dashboard that shows real-time agent attribution, conversion funnels, and protocol diagnostics. It tracks which AI agents discover your store, how they move through your commerce funnel, and where they drop off.

UCP is an open standard co-developed by Google and Shopify to make e-commerce stores accessible to autonomous AI agents. It's endorsed by 20+ industry partners including Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Visa, Mastercard, and PayPal. UCP defines how agents discover and browse stores.

ACP handles the transactional side of agent commerce: add to cart, checkout, and payment completion. Together with UCP, it covers the full agent commerce funnel from discovery through purchase confirmation.

signalCommerce covers 5 core protocols: UCP (Universal Commerce Protocol), ACP (Agent Commerce Protocol), MCP (Model Context Protocol), A2A (Agent-to-Agent), and WebMCP. This includes Google UCP, Shopify UCP/ACP, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, and custom implementations.

The simulator offers two modes: Deterministic ($0 per run) for scripted, repeatable tests, and Agentic ($0.01+ per run) for real AI reasoning with dynamic decision-making. Both modes support fault injection and persona-based testing.

The TAM is $630B by 2027 across 26M+ merchants. McKinsey projects $3-5 trillion in AI agent-driven retail by 2030. Gartner predicts 25% of digital transactions will be agent-driven by 2028. This represents a fundamental shift from click-based to agent-based commerce.

signalCommerce integrates with Cloudflare, CloudFront, and Akamai. Connect your CDN logs in 15 minutes to start seeing which AI agents are discovering your store. No SDK required, no code changes needed.

The free tier takes 15 minutes: just connect your CDN logs. The Starter tier adds protocol state-machine validation. No migration, no disruption to your current store.
