Brands on @Shopify are now shoppable inside @ChatGPTapp.

AI shopping isn’t coming. It’s here. As always, our merchants are best positioned.

Let's go.

When my grandfather started a business in the 1950s, he had to mortgage his house. If it didn't work, his family didn't eat.

Today you can start a business from your phone before breakfast.

The barriers are lower than they've ever been. The tools are better than they've ever been. And the data says founders would do it all over again.

The risk is still real. There's risk in every career path right now.

But a founder's risk is not existential anymore. And the upside has never been bigger.

People always ask me what it's like working with @tobi.

Here's @sama's answer: he writes the software himself, he sends OpenAI more detailed product feedback than anyone else on earth, and he stays six to eight months ahead of every other CEO.

Nothing in this clip surprised me. This is just what every day at @Shopify looks like.

On Monday, Montreal city council votes on a motion to cut the city's ties with Israel. I am speaking up because this motion is dangerous for Montreal, and my reason has nothing to do with which side of that war you are on. My family arrived in Montreal in 1956 as refugees. This city gave us safety, dignity and the chance to build. That promise has drawn generations of immigrants here from every corner of the world. I am not going to debate a war on the other side of the world, and that is exactly the point. A municipal government has no jurisdiction over foreign policy. Cities do not end wars. But a motion like this lands right here at home. Jewish Montrealers are less than one percent of this city and the number one target of hate crimes. Those are police statistics, not opinions. Our synagogues and schools have been targeted, and families I know are scared in a way I have never seen. When city hall singles out one community's connection to a foreign conflict, it brings no peace anywhere. It brings fear here. Montreal has real emergencies. Housing. Homelessness. Infrastructure. That is the job. This city has been a safe haven for my family and so many others, and it must remain one for everyone. @SorayaMartinezF showed real leadership in June. Council should reject this motion on Monday.

Nobody talks about founder tenure. They should.
Founder skill compounds.

20+ years in: DJ → T-Shirts → Shopify
Different businesses. Same builder.

Each rep stacks. You get sharper. Faster. Better.

Entrepreneurship isn’t a gamble. It’s compound interest.

Stay in the game.

I wrote an op ed for the @nationalpost today to say this plainly: Jewish Canadians are being targeted simply because they are Jewish. That is antisemitism. And it is getting worse. nationalpost.com/opinion/…

What happened at @startupfest yesterday was antisemitism. Pure & simple. Disguised under a thin veil of advocacy, and everyone in the room saw right through it. I was on stage with Georges St-Pierre talking about entrepreneurship. Not politics. A man burst in screaming horrible accusations at me anyway. Third time in 2 years, including at the opening of a Jewish community centre. My parents were in the front row. I'll never forget their faces. When the target is always the Jew and never the topic, it's not advocacy. It's hate. The room booed him down and cheered as he was walked out. I'm grateful for that. Hate got escorted out. We got right back to building.

Netflix House Dallas just opened. It’s not a store or a theme park.

It’s a 100,000-square-foot world where entertainment and commerce are one.

You walk through @Stranger_Things. You play @squidgame. The commerce isn't a separate step at the end. It’s part of the story.

When the experience is this immersive, the technology has to be invisible.

This is where Shopify POS comes in. Our mobile tech means the staff meet fans exactly where they are. No counters. No bottlenecks. Just a seamless flow.

@Netflix built the world. @Shopify makes it shoppable.

This is the future of retail.

This is what antisemitism has always looked like. Take successful companies, list them out, add “Jewish,” pretend you discovered something.

Q2 is in, and it was a monster quarter.

→ $116B in merchant sales, up 32% YoY
→ $3.6B revenue, up 34% YoY
→ $654M free cash flow, 18% margin

Five quarters running, GMV has grown more than 30%.

The bigger story is underneath the numbers: every shift AI is creating happens to play to @Shopify's strengths.

Meta just launched a brand new app. Muse. Here's what matters if you're a founder: Shopify merchants are already discoverable. If your products are in Shopify Catalog and shipping to the US? You're in. Muse didn't exist yesterday. Today our merchants can already sell through it. That's the advantage of building on @Shopify in the agentic era.

You don’t have to love Elon Musk to recognize what this headline says about us.

A country that spends more time criticizing wealth creation than encouraging it sends a clear message to builders: your success is tolerated, not celebrated.

Canada should be the best place in the world to build ambitious companies. Headlines like this make us look like we’re not quite ready for that.

Shopify just reported on Q1. The numbers speak for themselves.

→ $101B in merchant sales, second consecutive quarter over $100B, up 35% YoY
→ $3.2B revenue, up 34% YoY
→ $476M free cash flow, 15% margin

That’s what a clear strategy, well executed, looks like.

For Q2 and beyond, here’s what really matters. AI will accelerate entrepreneurship more than any other job.

This. Just. Happened. Twitch's biggest streamer, @KaiCenat, opened a subscriber-only drop from @TONEexclusive, the brand he cofounded, in real time to 430,000+ fans. All they had to do was scan the QR code or hit the link. It's that easy. Sold out in under 5 min. Powered by @Shopify.

Adam, I've been on the receiving end of this too. More than once. It's ugly, and I won't pretend it doesn't sting. But here's what I've learned: the hate is loud, and the support is louder. You're seeing that right now. Let this be fuel. Build bigger. Be louder. Be prouder. Proud of you. Proud of who we are. Am Yisrael Chai. 💙
