In a significant development for the e-commerce sector, ShopOS, an emerging startup focused on AI-native operating systems for brands, has raised $20 million in funding led by Binny Bansal’s 3STATE Ventures. This investment aims to accelerate the growth and technological advancement of ShopOS’s platform, which is designed to address the persistent inefficiencies faced by e-commerce brands worldwide.
Traditional e-commerce platforms often struggle with rigidity and inefficiency, particularly in content creation, personalized customer experiences, and maintaining consistent brand identity across diverse markets. These challenges create operational bottlenecks that hinder growth and profitability for brands.
ShopOS introduces a novel solution by embedding an AI workforce directly into the core of brand operations. This AI-driven operating system focuses on three pivotal functions:
Make: AI agents act as a creative studio, learning each brand’s unique style to automatically generate product content—including text, images, and videos—tailored for any catalog, market, or sales channel.
Market: The system functions as a global marketing team, crafting localized ad campaigns, automating processes, and identifying customer segments to enhance reach and improve return on ad spend (RoAS).
Manage: ShopOS dynamically adapts online stores in real-time, modifying layouts, content, and product recommendations based on visitor behavior to boost user engagement.
The founding team behind ShopOS brings deep experience from the e-commerce and AI domains. Sai Krishna V K and Ajay P V, who previously co-founded the AI/AR platform Scapic (acquired by Flipkart) and led Flipkart Labs, are joined by Karan Sonawala, a specialist in immersive and AI-driven experiences. Their combined expertise underpins ShopOS’s strategy to build scalable, AI-powered commerce technology.
Binny Bansal highlighted the transformative potential of ShopOS’s AI-driven operating system, particularly in enabling brands to navigate cross-border commerce and hyper-personalization. Co-founder Sai Krishna V K emphasized that while generative commerce is still in its infancy, ambient AI agents capable of autonomously executing commerce functions will fundamentally change shopping experiences soon.
Ajay P V pointed out that despite the rapid evolution of e-commerce, many operational models have lagged, especially in content creation and personalization. ShopOS aims to overcome these barriers by harnessing AI agents to deliver scalable solutions globally, starting from India and expanding to markets in Europe and the UAE.
ShopOS’s approach represents a shift from manual, fragmented e-commerce management to a unified, AI-powered system that automates and personalizes at scale. This could significantly reduce costs and time for brands while enhancing customer engagement and sales performance.
As AI continues to redefine digital commerce, platforms like ShopOS illustrate how integrating intelligent automation into the operational backbone of brands can unlock new growth avenues and redefine user experiences in the global marketplace.
This development marks a critical step toward the next generation of e-commerce technology, where AI not only supports but actively drives brand operations, marketing, and customer interaction with unprecedented efficiency and personalization.
