Short answer
Yes—AI can produce a complete storefront with product pages, navigation, and design. You’ll still connect payments, set taxes/shipping, and add real inventory. AI accelerates setup; commerce ops remain your call.
What AI can do

- Draft product/category copy and images
- Optimize basic SEO and performance
What you still handle
- Payment gateways, taxes, and shipping rules
- Real product data and inventory
- Policies and compliance
