Google launches Universal Commerce Protocol to power agentic AI commerce
Open Source For You
|February 2026
Google has introduced the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP), a new open standard that enables AI agents to autonomously perform end-to-end commerce activities, spanning product discovery, purchasing, checkout, payments, and postpurchase experiences.
-
Released under the Apache 2 open source licence, UCP is positioned as an openly governed, interoperable framework rather than a proprietary commerce system. Google says the protocol defines the foundational "building blocks for agentic commerce," allowing Al-driven shopping experiences to operate across platforms without bespoke integrations.
