🧠 How BigCommerce Merchants Win the AI Search Game
Search isn’t what it used to be. BigCommerce joined forces with Feedonomics and Perplexity to help sellers show up when shoppers ask AI what to buy.
Your listings need to keep up with AI search. →
🧵 Fast Fashion Is Slowing Down. Time to Shine?
Temu and Shein are hitting some speed bumps. Tariffs and new rules are cooling their growth, and that means more space for sellers who know how to ship fast.
If your store brings the goods, now’s your chance to stand out. →
🐶 AI Can Translate Your Dog’s Bark. Seriously.
A startup is turning barks into conversations. It sounds wild, but it’s real. It’s also a reminder that tech is sprinting ahead, and shoppers expect your store to keep up.
If dogs can talk, your ops can’t be stuck in 2020. →
📏 Amazon’s Box Limit Got an Upgrade
FBA sellers can now ship in boxes up to 36 inches long. That means no more slanted tripods or awkward burrito-packed yoga mats.
More room means better fulfillment. We’ll help you use it smartly. →
📮 USPS Slowed Down. Your Checkout Shouldn’t.

PARTNER SPOTLIGHT

Ordoro takes care of what happens after the sale with synced inventory, automated shipping, and one dashboard to keep everything moving.
Curious how this combo plays out? Take a look at how we’re helping brands grow stronger from the storefront to the shipping label.
NEW FEATURE UPDATE
Did you know your tracking page might be one of the most visited parts of your store? Customers click it multiple times while waiting for their order which makes it a golden opportunity to show off your brand, not your carrier’s.
That’s why we built Branded Tracking Pages into Shipping Premium. Instead of sending shoppers to a generic tracking site, you can bring them back to your world with your logo, product images, return info, and even social links.
It’s one of the simplest ways to turn post-purchase clicks into loyalty, repeat sales and it only takes a few minutes to set up. Want to see it in action and learn how to make the most of it? We’ve got you covered.
COMMERCE CHATTER
Have you ever wondered how founders actually get something off the ground with nothing but grit and a hunch? In the latest episode of Innovator Insights, our very own CEO Jagath Narayan sits down with Henrik Johansson, CEO of Gembah—one of our partners and a product development platform helping brands go from idea to shelf.
They talk about how Ordoro started with no code, no funding, and one summer spent learning the ropes in a Texas warehouse.
From finding early traction to building around real customer feedback, it’s a story every scrappy founder and seller will relate to. If you’re building, shipping, or scaling in real time, this episode is for you.
That’s a wrap for this round of updates in this Commerce Corner. As fireworks light up the sky and hot dogs mysteriously count as a meal, we’re here making sure your shipping stays smooth and your storefront keeps humming. Enjoy the Fourth, and don’t worry, Ordoro’s got your back even if the potato salad turns.
