Bring your commerce problem. Leave with the plan.
A free 45-minute working session with a senior commerce engineer. We dig into your store, your stack, and your bottleneck, sketch the solution live — and you keep the written plan whether you hire us or not.
A working session, not a pitch.
One hour of real consulting with a defined shape — so you know exactly what you're signing up for.
Tell us the problem
The form takes two minutes — your store, your stack, and what's breaking or what's next. A senior engineer reads it before the call, so we start at the real question.
We work it live
45 minutes on a shared whiteboard: data model, APIs, integrations, and where AI and agents would actually lift revenue — the way we'd genuinely build it.
You keep the plan
After the session you get a written architecture brief — the sketch, the risks, and a prioritized roadmap with honest effort framing. Yours, whether you hire us or not.
Decide with clarity
If it's a fit, most clients start with a small productized pilot — not a big contract. If Shopify or your current stack is enough, we'll say exactly that.
Consulting output you keep — not meeting notes.
The workshop ends with a written architecture brief. It's the artifact clients later build from — and the reason the session is worth your hour even if you never hire us.
Built for teams with a real commerce problem.
US D2C and marketplace brands, at the moments where an hour of senior architecture thinking changes the next year.
D2C brands outgrowing their stack
Template limits, slow pages, integration duct tape — you can feel the ceiling but want the plan before committing to a rebuild.
Marketplace & B2B builders
Multi-vendor mechanics, account pricing, RFQ flows — architecture decisions that are expensive to get wrong the first time.
Founders with an MVP that broke
A vibe-coded or agency-built MVP that's cracking under real traffic — you need a grown-up read on what to keep and what to replace.
Brands going agent-ready
AI agents are becoming a sales channel. You want to know what it takes for your store to be discovered — and bought from — by them.
Fair questions, straight answers
Everything people ask before they book.
Yes — no invoice, no obligation, no credit card. We invest the hour because a working session is the best possible demonstration of how we think and build. The written brief you keep is real consulting output, free.
You talk to a senior engineer who would actually architect your build — not a sales rep with a slide deck. The session is spent on your problem, and the recommendation is honest even when it's 'don't build custom yet' or 'Shopify is enough for your stage.'
Just context: your store or product, your current stack, the bottleneck or goal, and any numbers you're comfortable sharing (traffic, orders, conversion). Links help. Nothing formal — we'll ask the right questions.
Whoever owns the decision and whoever owns the tech — typically a founder or product lead, plus an engineer if you have one. It works fine with just a founder too.
Happy to sign one before the session if you'd like — just mention it in the form and we'll handle it before the call.
You get the architecture brief in writing. If you want to go further, the usual next step is a small, fixed-scope pilot — AI Commerce Starter, AI Cleanup, an agent-readiness audit, or a Shopify build — that proves ROI in weeks before anything bigger.
Two minutes now. A plan by next week.
Tell us what you're building and what's in the way. A senior engineer — the one who'd run your session — replies within one business day to schedule it.
