# Product Blueprint: AI Commerce Launch Kit

Date: 2026-06-05

## Decision

Build and sell `AI Commerce Launch Kit` first.

```text
Price: USD 1499.00
Buyer: small operator with one offer and at least one existing payment method
Promise: one clean first-order workflow from offer to AI buyer discovery, agentic readiness, payment handoff, intake, support, fulfillment evidence, and closure
```

## Why This Product

The fastest revenue path is not another generic AI tool. It is a productized implementation service that makes a buyer's first paid workflow visible, reviewable, and safe.

The current product-selection proof is in `docs/market-decision-matrix-2026-06-06.md`: the Launch Kit wins over generic chatbot, broad SaaS, payment processor, autonomous money agent, and regulated products on speed to first revenue, buyer clarity, proof quality, safety boundary, and build fit.

The buyer already has some demand or at least a sellable offer. The missing layer is operational:

- one offer page
- one AI buyer discovery brief, product feed, and manifest
- one robots, sitemap, web manifest, canonical, and social preview layer for public buyer pages
- one agentic commerce readiness audit
- one checkout reference
- one payment handoff
- one redacted buyer payment confirmation
- one buyer intake record
- one admin ledger
- one support starter
- one fulfillment evidence trail
- one customer handoff
