The evidence

What the market shows — and what your stack misses.

Published demand-side data on AI-referred retail traffic, followed by a category-by-category read of what each existing system alone does not establish.

Demand-side evidence

Adobe Digital Insights reported that AI-referred traffic to U.S. retail sites grew 393% year over year in Q1 2026. In March 2026, those visits converted 42% better and generated 37% higher revenue per visit than non-AI traffic. Adobe says the underlying U.S. retail analysis covers more than one trillion visits.

Adobe-reported historical data; not Cartograph customer data. Growth rate does not indicate channel share.

Different systems, different records

Your stack sees the pieces. The planned integration connects the evidence.

Cartograph is not a bot detector, PIM, analytics platform, PSP, or commerce platform. It is being built as the agent-commerce evidence layer across them.
