Win the Human + Agent buying journey.
We work with your team to rebuild discovery, search, commerce, and payments for the agent era — with loyalty as the foundation layer underneath — and ship the capability that turns it into revenue.
Talk to the studioMost brands are diagnosing the wrong threat.
Most brands think the biggest threat to their loyalty program is a competitor with a better points program. The bigger disruption is structural, and it’s already live: agentic commerce — where AI agents shop, compare, and transact on the customer’s behalf — is rewriting who controls the moment of purchase. Most loyalty programs weren’t designed for a world where the shopper isn’t human.
Paid acquisition costs keep climbing. The buying conversation is shifting — ChatGPT Operator, Perplexity Shopping, the Shopify and Google UCP work — to one where AI does the discovering and the human just chooses. Brands that are machine-readable get surfaced. Brands that aren’t get skipped. Butterfly Studios is the studio that rebuilds your brand for it.
What a studio engagement looks like
Across the lifecycle, scoped to your immediate problem.
Innovation surfaces what the agent era is changing for your category. Product ships the capability. Experience-led growth makes it earn its keep with your actual customers. Every engagement maps to one or more stages across the lifecycle — and loyalty runs as the layer underneath. We scope tight, ship working capability, and you own the IP that comes out the other side.

We make your catalog, content, and offers machine-readable.
Search

Commerce

The layer underneath
Loyalty
The layer the agent reads first — identity, status, the customer’s relationship to your brand — to decide whether your brand makes the consideration set.
We embed loyalty across the lifecycle as the foundation layer. Never sold standalone.
The proof
We've already built the consumer-scale version of this.
Butterfly built NCTR — the consumer rewards ecosystem built on Base. Three live apps. 5,000+ brand partners. The consumer proof point of x402. Wingman reads NCTR state to decide what to surface in Bounty Hunter — that’s loyalty as the foundation layer of agentic commerce, in production. When you ask “how deep does this go,” NCTR is the answer.
You can open all three today: The Mall, Bounty Hunter, Crescendo.
Loyalty as the foundation layer of agentic commerce, in production.
Start with the growth problem. We'll work the lifecycle.
A first studio conversation is a scoping call. Bring the problem; we’ll bring the lifecycle frame.
