Will Shopify’s AI features kill Magento’s growth?

Shopify Sidekick + Magic kill Magento’s SMB growth, that boat sailed in 2023 and AI cements the loss. They do NOT kill Magento’s B2B and enterprise growth. Sidekick is a brilliant SMB-tooling product; it’s not designed for multi-store B2B with Net-30 quote workflows, shared catalogues, requisition lists, or company hierarchies. Shopify Plus B2B is closing the gap but still 2-3 years behind Magento’s native B2B Companies module. Magento’s growth corridor is in B2B, multi-region, regulated industries, and custom-heavy mid-market, segments where Shopify’s ergonomic-SMB-first design works against it.
