Public stack
A high-performance storefront that separates your content from your commerce layer — millisecond product search, optimized images, real-time inventory, and reliable post-purchase emails all working together.
Workflow stack
Payments and checkout
Handles card processing, checkout sessions, webhook events for fulfillment, and subscription billing for membership tiers — PCI compliance handled without a separate provider.
Open tool profileProduct data and orders
PostgreSQL database for product catalog, inventory counts, and order records with row-level security so customers only access their own order history.
Open tool profileProduct search
Instant faceted search with typo tolerance and custom ranking — product discovery at sub-50ms that doesn't tank Core Web Vitals scores or require Elasticsearch to operate.
Open tool profileImage optimization
Transform, resize, and deliver product images through a CDN — automatic WebP conversion, lazy loading, and on-the-fly cropping for different layout breakpoints.
Open tool profileOrder emails
Send order confirmations, shipping updates, and abandoned cart nudges with React Email templates — transactional email with real delivery infrastructure behind it.
