Tredence Unveils Agentic Commerce Solution Accelerators
Tredence, a global data science and AI solutions provider, today announced the launch of its Agentic Commerce accelerators.
On January 12, 2026, data science and AI solutions provider Tredence officially announced its Agentic Commerce Accelerators at the National Retail Federation (NRF) conference.
Showcased at the Google Cloud booth, this solution provides "configurable starting points" for retail companies to rapidly build AI agent-driven shopping experiences, reducing time to value by 60%.
What is "System of Agents"?
The core of Tredence's approach is the "System of Agents" concept—where multiple specialized agents collaborate rather than relying on a single AI.
Agent Roles
Each agent specializes in specific areas while collaborating through an integrated data model:
| Agent | Function |
|---|---|
| Cosmos Customer Intelligence Agent | Understanding customer behavior, predicting actions, modeling preferences |
| Personalized Content Generation Agent | Automatic generation of individualized marketing content |
| Contextual Search Agent | Context-aware product search |
| Shopper Concierge Agent | Concierge functionality guiding the entire shopping journey |
| Customer Engagement Agent | Customer engagement optimization |
| Store Operations Agent | Identifying out-of-stock causes and executing corrective actions |
Tredence maintains 12+ AI agents in total.
Integrated Data Model
The key to these agents' effectiveness is Tredence's "integrated data model." Each agent can:
- Real-time Sensing: Instantly detect supply chain disruptions, demand fluctuations
- Contextual Understanding: Make decisions based on company-specific data and market conditions
- Autonomous Decision-making: Execute actions without human intervention
- Continuous Adaptation: Optimize operations aligned with business objectives
