The only intelligent composable storefront
Skip months of building from scratch. Alokai Storefront comes with everything a real store needs (product pages, search, cart, checkout) pre-built and pre-integrated with your stack. On top sits one AI layer that understands what shoppers want and adapts the storefront in real time. One product. Two problems solved.
Accelerate development and scale when you're ready
Composable foundation
Built on a state-of-the-art composable architecture, with best practices, patterns, and standard features baked in. Take it as-is and extend with what is unique to your business, instead of wasting months on repetitive groundwork and decisions.
Out-of-the-box integrations
Alokai Storefront comes pre-integrated with your ecommerce backend, headless CMS, and search of choice. Swap any of them later through a config change.
Flexibility to change backend
The Unified Data Layer lets you switch your backend whenever you are ready, without rewriting frontend code or breaking the customer experience.
Global scaling made simple
Expand into new countries and currencies without spinning up new codebases. Deploy new stores in days, not quarters.
Multistore from day one
Run multiple brands, regions, and languages from a single codebase. Push a change once and it lands everywhere. Customize per brand only where it matters.
AI personalization, included
Compass AI is built into every storefront surface. Search understands intent, navigation reorders per shopper, product pages adapt in real time. No vendor stitching required.
Focus on building what moves the needle
Alokai Storefront ships fully functional. Every journey from homepage to checkout to account management is already wired up across B2C and B2B. Skip months of plumbing and put your team on the work that actually drives revenue: the experience customers see.
Run global at the speed of a single brand
Manage every brand, region, language, and currency from one codebase. Apply changes everywhere at once. Customize per brand only where it matters. Teams launch new stores up to 50% faster than running siloed builds per region, and the AI layer travels with every store automatically.
AI built into your storefront, not bolted on top
Three vendors for chat, search, and recommendations means three roadmaps and zero shared context. Shoppers feel the friction. Merchants pay the integration bill. Alokai runs every storefront surface through one AI layer on a composable foundation, so the experience stays coherent and the integration tax goes away. Composable and AI-native ship in the same product, today. No roadmap promises. No second migration.
Keep what's already working and modernize what's not
Do not sacrifice your current investments in powerful software and customizations. Keep them while updating the components that directly impact your revenue and conversion rates. Alokai provides acceleration with components, integrations and production-ready infrastructure to help you lower the total cost of investment.
Everything a production storefront needs, on day one
B2C and B2B journeys, ready to brand
Both customer types get full journeys on day one. Both inherit the same AI layer. Conversational discovery for consumers. Quick-order and reordering for buyers.
Adaptive, not just extensible
Add new features on top of a working storefront, or build custom integrations. The storefront also adapts itself. Every shopper interaction reshapes the interface and the API calls behind it.
Storefront UI for fast custom design
Our Tailwind-based component library lets you build a custom design system fast. Pre-built components for every common ecommerce pattern, ready to brand.
Rich integration ecosystem
Pre-integrated with the major commerce backends, the most popular CMSs, and the leading search platforms. The Unified Data Layer keeps the AI layer working the same no matter what sits underneath.
Works with your current stack
Keep your existing PIM, ERP, OMS, and pricing logic exactly where they are. Connect any API. No total overhaul required.
Enterprise-grade infrastructure
Deploy on Alokai Cloud for fast hosting, uptime monitoring, and Commerce Intelligence. Analytics in plain language, prioritized by revenue impact instead of vanity metrics.
Lower TCO, faster launches, brands rolled out in days
Buyers tell us total cost of ownership, time to launch, and how fast they can spin up new brands are what tip the decision. Here is how the three options stack up.
| Built from scratch | Vendor accelerator | Alokai Storefront | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Time to first launch | 12 to 18 months, every component built from zero | 9 to 12 months, vendor template plus custom work | 3 to 6 months, architecture, patterns, pre-built journeys ready to brand |
| Time to add a new brand or region | Months of rebuild, separate codebase per brand, code duplication everywhere | Months per brand, separate templates, same code duplication | Days to weeks, one codebase serves every brand and region |
| Total cost of ownership | Highest, you own everything | High, accelerates only part of the build, you maintain the full setup | Lowest, best acceleration with lowest maintenance effort |
| Maintenance burden | You maintain everything yourself | Same as building from scratch, you maintain everything yourself | Upgradeable packages and building blocks, you only maintain what is specific to your brand |
| Performance out of the box | Whatever you build, performance work is on you | Often requires optimization work from your team | Lighthouse 90+, Core Web Vitals passing from day one, automated performance audits and AI fixes |
| AI capabilities | DIY integration, every AI feature is a new build | None or scattered widgets from different vendors that do not share context | Native AI layer across every surface, sharing context and adapting the whole journey to user intent |
| Backend flexibility | Switching is a rebuild, integrations are hardcoded | Locked to vendor backend, the accelerator only works with their platform | Swap any backend via Unified Data Layer, no frontend rewrite |
| Dedicated infrastructure | DIY, you provision, scale, and run everything yourself | Sometimes available, with limited customization | Dedicated production-ready infrastructure included, tuned for ecommerce |
| Integration layer | Build your own or license a separate integration platform | Not included, license a separate integration platform | Alokai Connect built in, no separate license needed |
| Out-of-the-box integrations | Build every integration yourself | Limited to the vendor's own ecosystem | Pre-built with all major commerce, search, and CMS vendors |
| B2C and B2B support | Build twice, two codebases for two business models | Separate templates, B2C and B2B ship as different products | Both in one codebase, complete journeys for either model |
| AI coding support for your devs | DIY | Not offered | Built in |
| Dedicated platform support | Internal team only | Vendor support, limited frontend depth | Dedicated Alokai team |
