On June 17, Shopify announced Campaign Autopilot.

I have been digging into what this means for merchants.

Why This Matters

From what I am seeing in support tickets, the migration is not going smoothly. The key point: Summer 2026 has changed how your checkout works. The problem is that most merchants do not know this is happening.

Shopify Editions updated and nobody noticed. I spent hours migrating what was happening. I tested this over the weekend and found several issues. I spent hours figuring out what was happening.

What Shopify Did Not Announce

The situation is that there is no migration path for non-technical store owners. The key point: 150 features will affect every store. Here is the thing: agentic will affect your store performance.

I spent days migrating what was happening. From what I am seeing in support tickets, the migration is not going smoothly. The key point: Sidekick is changing every store. I spent most of last week figuring out what was happening.

The key point: Sidekick will affect your app subscriptions. The issue is that there is no migration path for non-technical store owners. Campaign Autopilot deprecated in the latest update.
