The problem
Merchants get a storefront they cannot touch, or a page builder with no real commerce underneath it. The split between what is safe to edit and what is not is the whole design problem.
What we built
Catalog, cart, checkout and orders on a Laravel API, with a visual builder over the parts of the storefront customers see — so a merchant can change their own homepage without a developer and without breaking checkout.
Visual site builder
WordPress-style editing of the storefront surface, scoped so it cannot reach the parts that take money.
Real commerce core
Catalog, cart, checkout, orders and settings as a proper API rather than a theme with a database behind it.
Separate admin
Merchant administration is its own surface, not a plugin bolted onto the shop.
Pricing
Two ways to buy it.
Stoa can run on our infrastructure under your brand, or on yours. The difference is who gets the call when it breaks.
