In this special Retailgentic episode, guest host Kiri Masters turns the tables on our regular host, Scot Wingo (CEO, ReFiBuy). They unpack the next big retail revolution, Agentic Commerce, and what it means for shoppers, retailers, and brands as AI shopping agents like ChatGPT and Perplexity redefine discovery, loyalty, and checkout. Scot shares the lessons behind ChannelAdvisor, Spiffy, and now ReFiBuy, plus why messy product catalogs, ad overload, and loyalty programs will determine who wins in the AI marketplace era. ⏱️ Key Timestamps 00:00 - Intro: Kiri turns the tables 02:15 - Scot’s early career & first startup 07:50 - Building ChannelAdvisor 14:30 - Lessons from going public 20:05 - Spiffy and the services economy 26:40 - Discovering AI → the spark for ReFiBuy 33:00 - What is Agentic Commerce? 38:20 - ChatGPT & Perplexity in the marketplace race 45:00 - The product catalog problem explained 51:00 - How ReFiBuy solves it with AI 55:20 - Retailers’ edge: loyalty, data, customer experience 59:00 - The next phase: marketplaces 2.0 1:02:00 - Close: The future of AI shopping
