According to Reuters, Amazon plans a "World Product Graph" project to build a vault of data on every product sold anywhere online, including items Amazon doesn't sell, and make it available through its own site. The effort aims to keep shoppers and AI agents on Amazon for product research and to give its Alexa for Shopping assistant more data; an internal document reportedly cites an October 1st, 2027 release date, though Amazon said draft documents don't necessarily reflect current plans.
