3 Ways to Leverage Artificial Intelligence to Increase eCommerce Revenue in 2026

The competitive landscape of 2026 has drastically changed. Artificial intelligence is no longer experimental or an option. It’s a baseline.

According to Anchor Group, the AI-enabled eCommerce market has surpassed about $8.6 Billion in 2025 and is growing rapidly in 2026.

Cubeo also reported that nearly 80-90% of retail and eCommerce companies are using or testing AI in at least one function.

If you’re not already using AI in your business – you will fall behind your competition.

Enhancing the eCommerce Customer Experience Without Starting Your Website From Scratch

Every software company in the world is raving about artificial intelligence right now and for good reason. The technology landscape is shifting fast, and AI is quickly becoming less of a competitive advantage and more of a baseline expectation.

The numbers back it up. Cubeo reported that nearly 80–90% of retail and eCommerce companies are already using or testing AI in at least one function. Companies that aren’t are missing an opportunity and falling behind businesses that are actively using AI to convert more customers, increase order values, and build lasting loyalty.

So what does that actually look like in practice?

How AI Is Improving Order-Taking and Customer Service

For many B2B companies, the order-taking process is a mix of emails, phone calls, forms, and follow-ups. It works — until it doesn’t.

Slow turnaround times, input errors, and unclear requests all introduce friction. AI offers practical ways to clean this up, reduce costs, and improve service.

McKinsey reports that companies using AI in customer operations have seen an average 35% drop in operating costs and a 32% increase in revenue.

These gains come from better efficiency, fewer mistakes, and faster response times.

Why Most AI Projects Fail (and What to Do Differently)

The AI landscape in 2025 is flooded with potential and false starts.

Across industries, companies have launched initiatives with high hopes. But many stall before they ever deliver real value.

The pattern is consistent: early excitement, a flashy demo, and then… nothing. The model can’t scale. The results aren’t consistent. The data isn’t usable. The project dies quietly.

And this pattern is accelerating.

This year, S&P Global reports that 42% of companies have shut down the majority of their AI initiatives—nearly triple the rate from the year before. MIT adds another layer: 95% of generative AI pilots fail to exit the testing phase.

These aren’t growing pains. They’re signs of a deeper design flaw.

The Hidden Cost of Not Automating Your Order Entry

If you’re still processing orders manually, you’re paying a price; and not just in dollars.

Manual order entry drains time, inflates costs, and invites mistakes. According to McKinsey, businesses that rely on manual processing spend 30% more on operational costs than those that automate. That’s money lost to inefficiency — time spent on repetitive tasks, corrections, and rework.

And it’s not just the cost. It’s the risk. Manual data entry has an average error rate of 3% — that’s 3 mistakes for every 100 orders. In fast-moving sectors, those mistakes ripple out: botched deliveries, frustrated customers, and lost trust. In a market where speed is currency, even one wrong digit in an order can turn into a reputation problem.

Improving the Customer Experience to Drive Revenue

After 15 years of working in eCommerce, one thing is clear: making it easier for customers to purchase and support themselves drives revenue.

Too often, companies rely on systems integrations as drivers of change, while neglecting to streamline the actual customer experience throughout their site.

Think of your online store, customer portal, and associated systems as a sales team working around the clock. If the systems are clunky and difficult to use, they frustrate customers and result in lost business.

How 3D Programming Is Transforming The Way We Do Business

3D programming has been pushing the boundaries of digital media since 1976, when the first 3D computer graphics were used in the science fiction film Futureworld. Since then, 3D programming has developed from an art form into a powerful tool used by businesses to increase sales, improve employee performance, and analyze complex data. 3D Programming has potentially disruptive capabilities through its five major implementations: Product Visualization, Augmented Reality, Training, Sales Tools, and Data Visualization.
