From Recommendations to Delegation: A Systematic Review Mapping Agentic AI in E-Commerce and Its Consumer Effects

Open access
Balaskas, Stefanos·2026·Information

Abstract

Agentic AI is increasingly framed as enabling consumers to delegate commerce decisions and actions to digital assistants, yet consumer-facing evidence still centers on assistive chatbots and recommender-like systems, with scarce evaluation of execution-level delegation. This study provides an evidence-mapping review of empirical work on agentic commerce and synthesizes determinants and outcomes of delegation across three questions: (RQ1) how systems are operationalized (autonomy, task scope, interaction mode, and transaction capability/evidence realism), (RQ2) what facilitates or inhibits delegation, and (RQ3) what downstream outcomes follow for marketing performance and consumer experience. We searched Scopus and Web of Science for English-language, peer-reviewed primary studies (2015–2026) and applied conservative coding rules that distinguish claimed capability from simulated or demonstrated execution. The mapped literature is concentrated in text-based, low-autonomy assistants focused on recommendation and post-purchase support; coverage drops sharply for workflow-level autonomy, cart building, checkout/payment execution, and negotiation. Across studies, findings cluster into two motifs: a utility/assurance pathway in which performance cues and interaction quality increase perceived usefulness, satisfaction, and trust, and a governance pathway in which autonomy cues and system-initiated control trigger reactance/powerlessness and reduce acceptance unless mitigated by safeguards; urgency can attenuate governance resistance. Because most outcomes are intention- or vignette-based, calibration, verification, and error-recovery behaviors remain under-measured. Overall, delegation appears to depend less on maximizing autonomy than on coupling capability with user governance (consent, oversight, recourse, accountability), and we outline measurement priorities for evaluating execution-capable agents.

TL;DR

This systematic evidence map finds that consumer-facing “agentic commerce” research is dominated by low-autonomy, text-based assistants focused on recommendation and post-purchase support, with little empirical evidence on execution-level delegation such as cart building, checkout/payment, or negotiation. Delegation appears most likely when agents reduce friction while preserving user governance, and least likely when autonomy cues trigger reactance or powerlessness unless urgency or safeguards mitigate them.

Key findings

  • Across the mapped corpus (N = 47 studies), the literature clusters at Autonomy Level 1 (assistive) and text-based interaction; higher-autonomy text agents are rare (Autonomy-2: n = 3; Autonomy-3: n = 3), and negotiation is virtually absent.
  • Evidence maturity is skewed: intention-only/cross-sectional designs account for 55.3% of studies, while behavioral evidence in realistic contexts is only 14.9%; samples include online panels (23.4%) and students (21.3%), with East/Southeast Asia representing 42.5% of settings and China 19.1%.
  • Core delegation drivers are perceived usefulness (n = 11), effort reduction/convenience (n = 11), and trust in the agent (n = 11); governance-related factors include perceived control (n = 4), perceived autonomy/agency (n = 5), and reactance/powerlessness (n = 4).
  • Outcomes split into a utility/assurance pathway (performance cues → usefulness/satisfaction/trust → adoption or purchase intention) and a governance pathway (autonomy cues → reactance/powerlessness → reduced acceptance), with urgency/scarcity attenuating the negative autonomy effect and some evidence for a mid-level “co-assistant” optimum.

Methods

  • Systematic evidence-mapping review following PRISMA 2020 where applicable, searching Scopus and Web of Science Core Collection for English-language, peer-reviewed primary studies published 2015–2026.
  • The search returned 226 Scopus records and 71 Web of Science records (n = 297 before deduplication); after removing duplicates, 162 unique records remained, all carried to full-text assessment, yielding a final mapped corpus of N = 47 studies.
  • Coding used a two-axis scheme: Autonomy Level 0–3 and Evidence Grade E0–E3, with conservative rules distinguishing claimed capability from simulated or demonstrated execution; synthesis is narrative/evidence-mapping rather than pooled-effect estimation.

Limitations

  • The paper states that screening and coding were performed by a single reviewer, with no inter-rater reliability statistics, no formal risk-of-bias tool, and no certainty grading (e.g., GRADE/CERQual); it used audit-oriented safeguards such as a codebook, exclusion log, second-pass verification, and conservative default classifications.
  • The paper states that the reviewed evidence base suffers from thin execution realism, heavy reliance on cross-sectional single-source self-report, and under-measurement of governance-relevant outcomes such as trust calibration, overreliance, verification, error recovery, regret/blame, and accountability.
  • The paper also notes geographic and demographic concentration (e.g., East/Southeast Asia 42.5%, China 19.1%; students 21.3%, online panels 23.4%) and exclusion of grey literature, which limit generalizability; these are stated limitations, not merely inferred.

      Section 2.5 (p. 7) says consumers who trust a chatbot are more likely to rely on it to address problems or make decisions. Section 4.1 (p. 13) suggests that, for complex tasks, consumers may care more about the chatbot’s ability to solve problems than its attitude.

      The Literature review (Chatbot commerce; page unavailable) says that accurate recommendations and an efficient, convenient chatbot experience contribute to customer satisfaction. The Method (Measurement; page unavailable) also includes whether expectations are met in its satisfaction measure. But the paper does not establish problem-solving, confirmation, usefulness, and interaction/service quality as the pathways by which satisfaction rises; its Discussion instead identifies perceived enjoyment, attitude, and trust as mediators.

    As autonomy increases, users' oversight demands typically rise (supervisory control), but situation awareness can deteriorate when intermediate steps, uncertainty, and constraints are not externalized; this makes governance mechanisms (visible state, confidence cues, approval gates, and reversible actions) central to safe delegation rather than optional UX features.

Self-check

Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.

Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.

  • Central autonomy finding cites the wrong study

    Minor

    The text assigns the powerlessness finding to Frank et al. [40], whereas reference [40] is a study by Liu and Chen. The Frank and Otterbring study is listed as reference [41].

  • Field-performance citation [10] points to a different system

    Minor

    The review attributes Hybrid-MACRS to Nie et al. [10] and uses [10] for field performance results, but reference [10] is Bai et al.'s Insight Agents paper; Nie et al. is reference [11].

  • Boundary-conditions discussion names the wrong table

    Minor

    The discussion identifies Table 4 as the boundary-conditions table, but the paper labels Table 6 as the table of moderators and boundary conditions. Table 4 is the context profile.

  • Price-fairness effect is described in opposite directions

    Minor

    The outcomes discussion says price fairness can make consumers less likely to engage with a purchase. The moderators table instead says high fairness strengthens the engagement-to-purchase-intention relationship.

  • Two different studies share citation [46] in the mapping

    Minor

    The study mapping labels both Yue et al. and Fan et al. as [46], despite describing different systems and autonomy levels. The reference list identifies [46] as a third study, by Ranjan et al.

  • A Level 3 study has no reported transaction execution

    Minor

    The stated coding rule reserves Level 3 for delegated control rights with demonstrated execution or a validated transaction proxy. The mapping nevertheless assigns Fan et al. Level 3 while reporting no transaction capability, order, payment, real context, or observed behavior.

  • High-autonomy studies are not solely associated with later-stage tasks

    Minor

    The narrative says Level 3 instances occur solely at later task stages such as checkout or payment, but the mapped Level 3 Fan study covers only search, compare, and recommend.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
