Commerce

One year ago, we introduced Commerce with a simple belief: the future of commerce would be more connected, more open, and increasingly shaped by AI. Since then, we've launched new products, expanded our ecosystem, partnered with leading brands, explored what's next with customers and industry leaders, and continued investing in the infrastructure that powers modern commerce. This video looks back at the moments that shaped our first year and the momentum we've built together. Thank you to our customers, partners, and team for being part of the journey. We're excited for what's ahead.
