Rankly is an Agentic Commerce Experience platform: a set of tools that optimize agentic, AI, and LLM traffic for brands and ecommerce websites. It covers on-site and off-site experiences for both human shoppers and AI agents, from measuring which bots visit a store to making the catalog usable by agents that browse, compare, and buy.
The product is organized around five areas: Agent Analytics, Answer Engine Analytics, Traffic Analytics, Shopping, and Agentic Commerce. Rankly also publishes a free UCP/ACP Validator that checks whether a store is agent-ready, along with a Protocol Tracker and an Agent Directory.
For agentic commerce, Rankly describes a middleware layer that sits on an existing Shopify, WooCommerce, or BigCommerce store and exposes it to AI agents through UCP and MCP. It scans the store and generates a hosted UCP profile at /.well-known/ucp, which the site compares to robots.txt for commerce capabilities.
API adapters translate each platform's API into the UCP spec. When an agent calls UCP Product Search, Rankly converts it into the matching Shopify Storefront API query. An auto-generated MCP server gives agents direct tools such as search_products, add_to_cart, and create_checkout. On the measurement side, Edge Capture counts agents at the edge even when they never run a tag.
Agent Analytics verifies each bot against vendor IP ranges and authentication signatures, maps where agents connect from by country and network, and groups them by intent: train, index, fetch, or shop. Answer Engine Analytics adds visibility tracking, prompt testing, sentiment analysis, and citation monitoring across major AI platforms.
The Shopping module tracks product visibility, retailer visibility, and average prices, ratings, and reviews across AI responses. Traffic Analytics tracks referrals from ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude, compares AI-referred conversions with traditional search, and offers real-time dashboards. Competitive intel, win rate analytics, and instant alerts show when competitors overtake you in AI recommendations.
