Instinct + Shopify
35% of our users use Instinct for personal shopping. Today, we’re partnering with @Shopify to bring product discovery, checkout and order updates into one conversation.
Shopping is a creative and personal experience. Your Instinct knows your sizes, the brands you like, and what you’ve bought, kept or returned. When you ask for something, Instinct understands the details that matter, from who a gift is for to when you need it to arrive.
Instinct can now search Shopify’s merchant network for products, and find live information on prices, sizes and availability. When you’re ready to buy, Instinct sets up your order with the store so you can check out with Shop Pay using your saved payment and shipping details.
Whether you’re searching for a thoughtful gift, researching big-ticket items, or restocking household essentials, the new experience helps you:
- Discover and compare products across brands, with up-to-date pricing and availability
- Check out with Shop Pay using your saved details
- Receive price-drop and back-in-stock notifications for your favorite items
- Stay on top of delivery updates and return-window reminders
- Access automatic discounts and promo codes tied to your Shop account

The next generation of commerce deserves a next-generation interface. The Shopify admin has a new look, with easier navigation across key workflows and Sidekick front and center when you need a hand.

I have spent 23 years documenting the global LED transition of city lighting from space.
Across my 4 missions to the ISS, I have photographed every major city on Earth, building a data set of the gradual replacement of sodium vapor lighting with LEDs.
The warmer, yellow-orange of gas discharge lamps has been phased out worldwide to multi-colored LEDs, citing energy savings and environmental reasons.
Widespread adoption has markedly changed the way our cities look from orbit, and as many have pointed out, how they feel to those on the ground!
Here is a collection of the most striking before-and-after photos I have observed:
This might be the most beautiful thing I've read in my life. What a privilege to be alive in 2026.

NEW: Apple is about to debut its revamped push into the smart home, built around Siri AI. The long-awaited smart home hub with a screen arrives between the end of year and early next year, while a new Apple TV and HomePod mini are set to launch this fall. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Well, that was a banger. Thank you to all the partners who traveled to Toronto for @Shopify DotDev (from 68 countries!). Best ecosystem in tech. Hands down.
if you couldn’t get into our “Why Customer Accounts are worth the upgrade” talk yesterday, we’re running in back again today at 11:25 in room 6!
DotDev was 🔥 today! We know there were some sessions that people wanted but couldn’t get into so we decided to do them again. Get the updates: dotdev.shopify.com/pages/ses…

New Customer Accounts
新しいお客様アカウントのアップデートについて
・新規ストアはすでに新しいお客様アカウントのみ対応
・90%以上のマーチャントが移行済み
※残り約10%は、独自ログイン/高度なカスタマイズ/エンタープライズ向け機能を利用しているストア等
・Legacy Customer Accountsは段階的に終了予定(12か月前に事前告知)
・Google/Facebook/Apple/Passkeyなど認証機能を強化
・ログインセッションは24時間→最大365日へ
・Checkout Extensibilityと同じ思想で、安全に拡張できる設計へ
・Sidekickが移行支援(カスタマイズ診断/アプリ対応確認など)をサポート
今後はCustomer Accountsが単なるマイページではなく、ブランド体験/CRM/顧客接点の中心になっていきそうです
ShopifyがWebhookに代わる新しい「Events System」を発表
これまでのWebhookでは、
・不要なイベントまで大量に届く
・REST形式でGraphQLとの相性が悪い
・何が変更されたか判別しづらい
という課題がありました。
新しいEventsでは、
・必要なイベントだけ購読
・変更フィールド単位でトリガー設定
・必要なGraphQLデータをPayloadに含められる
ので、処理負荷や開発コストを大幅に削減できます。
実際にイベント数、Webhook処理コストを70〜90%削減できる事例も紹介。
Shopifyアプリ開発では、今後WebhookからEventsへの移行が重要になりそうです!

We rewrote @shop search from the ground up to be entirely built around you. Your context, your taste. This is only the beginning but we're excited to continue our journey of building a truly personalized shopping experience.
some big updates in this edition! 👀
You don't want to miss this: we just dropped @Shopify's Spring ’26 Edition. 150+ updates! It's EVERYWHERE 😁
My faves are on 🧵 starting with Agentic Storefronts, a new section in the admin for full visibility and control.
