Stores that actually convert, not just look expensive.
Shopify, WooCommerce, and headless commerce builds — catalog, checkout, payments, search, shipping. Agents handle migrations and content generation at scale; senior engineers own conversion-critical code. Revenue is the deliverable.
Revenue-critical commerce, shipped.
Every piece of a modern store — storefront, catalog, checkout, payments, shipping, search, subscriptions, loyalty. Agents handle bulk operations; humans own conversion-sensitive decisions.
Custom store development
Shopify, WooCommerce, or headless (Next.js + Commerce Layer / Shopify Hydrogen). Pick the right tool, not just the trendy one.
Payment integration
Stripe, Adyen, PayPal, Apple Pay, local methods. Tax + compliance (EU VAT, US sales tax) handled from day one.
Inventory & catalog
Bulk import, variant management, AI-generated descriptions at scale, image optimization, schema markup — all reviewed before ship.
Shipping & fulfillment
Real-time rates, zone-based rules, 3PL integrations (ShipBob, ShipHero, custom). Returns portals included.
Mobile-optimized
60–80% of commerce is mobile. Our mobile LCP target is 1.5s — and we enforce it in CI, not just hope for it.
Analytics + CRO
GA4 enhanced commerce, server-side events, session replay. Monthly CRO sprints with senior merchandiser review.
How the ecommerce agent works.
Post-launch, we move into a CRO loop — continuous testing on the highest-revenue pages. Hypotheses ranked by impact × effort, winners scaled, losers killed.
Session + funnel data
Agents watch funnel dropoff, cart abandonment, and session replay anomalies daily. Unusual patterns flagged for senior review.
Rank test ideas
Every week, the agent proposes 3–5 test ideas scored by (expected impact × effort). Senior merchandiser picks one or two.
Ship the test
A/B test built, feature-flagged, QA'd on staging. Traffic allocation and stat-power calculations automated.
Significance gate
Tests run to stat-sig or minimum-detectable-effect timeout. Winners roll out 100%; losers document learnings for future tests.

Unit estimates are tentative — final scope is set during your first sync. Because agents compress the work, you often get more output per unit than a traditional hourly retainer would predict.
From kickoff to live store, catalog-complete, payments working. Replaces 3–4 month legacy agency builds.
Median LCP on mobile across the last 10 stores we shipped. Perf enforced in CI.
Median conversion lift over first 90 days of CRO sprints vs. launch baseline.
Largest single migration. Agents enriched content for every SKU; merchandiser reviewed categories.
Three shapes where the engine returns hardest.
Every store is different — but certain shapes get outsized returns from agent-assisted commerce builds.
Off Magento, WooCommerce, or BigCommerce
Modernizing a 5–15 year old store onto Shopify or headless. Agents handle catalog migration and redirects; we protect SEO and conversion through the cutover.
- Legacy stack
- Perf or admin UX pain
- SEO value at risk
New DTC brand, first store
Getting to first sale fast. We skip the 3-month design phase — pick a strong theme, customize within brand, ship in 4–6 weeks, iterate post-launch.
- Pre-launch brand
- Need to validate fast
- Budget-conscious
Plateaued store needing CRO
Store runs fine but conversion stalled. Funnel audit, A/B testing program, catalog optimization — systematic revenue growth, not vibes.
- €1M+ revenue
- CRO program needed
- Flat conversion curve
eCommerce lives inside your monthly unit allocation.
Typical ecommerce engagement: 50 units store build + 18 units catalog + 10 units CRO monthly after launch. That fits comfortably in Liftoff — the tier most clients pick.
eCommerce, specifically.
The questions we hear most often about this engine. Don't see yours? Ask us.
Shopify vs headless — what do you recommend?
Shopify for 80% of stores. It's fast to launch, reliable, and the ecosystem is deep. Go headless (Hydrogen or Next + Commerce Layer) only if you need: unique content patterns, complex PDPs, international strategy beyond Markets, or mobile-app-like experiences. We'll advise honestly — headless is 2–3× the build cost.
Can you migrate without losing SEO?
Yes. Redirect mapping is part of every migration — old URL → new URL, 301 every path, validated in a staging crawl before cutover. We monitor rankings for 30 days post-launch and fix any regressions. Nothing drops through the cracks.
Do you handle Klaviyo / email lifecycle?
Setup yes, ongoing management is our CRM & Automation engine (service 08). We'll wire Klaviyo to Shopify, seed flows, and hand off — or keep it under our CRM retainer.
What about B2B commerce?
Yes — Shopify Plus B2B, WooCommerce B2B, or custom headless. Quote-to-order flows, volume pricing, net terms, punchout catalogs. Quote-scale varies; start with a 10-unit discovery.
Can you add AI — search, recs, chat?
Yes and we like doing it. Typesense / Algolia for fast search, Rebuy / custom for recs, embedded LLM chat for support. See service 09 (AI Transformation) for the bigger AI-native scope.

These services share data and playbooks with eCommerce — stacking them inside the same package compounds results faster than running them in silos.
