Definition
The Commerce Knowledge Graph is the semantic knowledge structure that AI systems construct to understand the e-commerce internet. It connects merchant entities to product categories, use cases, buyer intents, price points, trust signals, and competitive relationships. Unlike the AI Commerce Graph, which maps recommendation flows, the Commerce Knowledge Graph maps semantic understanding. Atom Foundry measures each merchant's position and strength within this graph as part of the AI Commerce Score.

Watch it think
AI asks itself questions
Every buyer query sends AI searching the graph for a path. Sometimes it finds one. Sometimes the path simply does not exist yet.

It never stops
The living graph
The graph is not built once. It keeps discovering new nodes for as long as the store keeps publishing.
