MarTechCharts regularly highlights data of interest to marketers and marketing operations professionals.

AI is already disrupting online shopping and it will continue to do so, according to a report by Klaviyo.

Klaviyo’s Global AI Shopping Index (registration required), declares AI to be at the center of commerce, reshaping how consumers discover, decide and buy. 

Among the report’s findings:

• 78% of consumers used AI for shopping or product research in the past three months.
• Consumers use AI to find the best deals (36%), save time (17%) and get personalized recommendations (14%).
• 56% plan to use AI shopping assistants during Black Friday/Cyber Monday 2025.
• 75% have abandoned a purchase because they couldn’t get an instant answer — suggesting real-time, AI-powered support now defines the checkout experience.

The report also looks ahead:

• By 2026, 48% want AI assistants to help compare products, 41% want help sticking to a budget and 32% want AI to suggest full outfits.
• 65% of consumers expect AI shopping assistants to be standard by 2026.
• By 2030, 40% hope AI will consistently save them money, and 89% are open to letting AI manage post-purchase tasks like delivery tracking and order updates.

The report is based on a survey of 3,000 consumers across the U.S., U.K., and Australia.
