Swap Commerce, an agentic e-commerce platform for Shopify brands, acquired Vizby, a Shopify-native AI-visibility startup, in its first acquisition, per an October 1 announcement distributed on Business Wire. Vizby tracks how brands and products appear in answers from ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, Claude and Microsoft Copilot; its technology now powers “Swap Discovery,” a new AI-visibility layer at the front of Swap Commerce’s platform. Terms were not disclosed.

Why it matters: A checkout and commerce-infrastructure vendor absorbing an AI-visibility measurement startup suggests brands want that tracking built into the platform they already sell on, not bought as a separate tool.
