AI Revives Ecommerce DIY

Many ecommerce businesses are adopting an AI and automation culture that encourages experimentation and problem-solving.

The effect is a renaissance of do-it-yourself projects reminiscent of the ecommerce industry's early innovations. It is a test-and-see attitude.

AI Trend

Myriad surveys and reports point to the emerging DIY shift.

A 2025 LinkedIn study found that 80% of C-suite executives believe AI adoption is important and will foster a more innovative workplace culture. Gartner reported in December 2025 that 65% of employees said they are excited to use AI at work.

The trend suggests a convergence of three priorities:

• Employees use AI because it makes their jobs easier, and the knowledge gained is an important career skill.
• The cost of off-the-shelf software and development makes AI an attractive alternative.
