We build shop platforms whose data and interfaces AI systems can find, understand, and prefer. So your store shows up where customers actually search today: inside AI assistants.   [Book a free consultation](mailto:projects@dynabase.de) [View references](https://www.dynabase.de/en/projects?hsLang=en) Spun off our own AI commerce product (**Mandelbaum.ai**) · Partner to **igus** since 2017 · Full-service from Cologne, Germany ## **VALUE PROPOSITION** ## Why shop architecture now decides who gets found AI-generated answers now appear in a substantial share of search queries. Customers ask ChatGPT and Perplexity for product recommendations before they ever open a store. And AI agents don't look at your homepage;  they read structured data and APIs. Older shop systems, where product data has grown for years without ever being cleaned up, struggle in this environment. They get misread, or they don't get found at all. Not because the products are worse, but because the technology behind them was built for humans, not for machines that shop on behalf of humans. We build e-commerce platforms that work for both. ## **WHAT WE BUILD** ## Online stores that do more than sell [Explore our other services →](https://www.dynabase.de/en/services?hsLang=en) 01 Service ### Shop development Fast, scalable platforms that are still maintainable five years from now. 02 Service ### AI search for online stores Semantic search that understands what customers mean, not just what they type. 03 Service ### API-first architecture Clean interfaces for AI agents, PIM, ERP, and CRM. The foundation for everything else. 04 Service ### Composable Commerce Modular systems where new commerce interfaces plug in without touching the core. 05 Service ### Product data machines can read Structured, consistent product data is the ticket into agentic commerce. We build the data model for it. 06 Service ### Conversion optimization Based on data, not gut feeling. 07 Service ### System integration Connecting existing PIM, ERP, and CRM landscapes, including the messy, grown ones. ## **PROCEDURE & METHODOLOGY** ## How an e-commerce project runs at dynabase [Learn more about us →](https://www.dynabase.de/en/aboutus?hsLang=en) **Step 1** ### Commerce audit We look at what's there: architecture, data quality, interfaces. An honest assessment, not a sales pitch. **Step 2** ### Architecture decision Replatform, migrate, or rebuild selectively? We recommend what makes economic sense, not what makes the biggest project. **Step 3** ### Agile development Short sprints, measurable milestones, full cost transparency. **Step 4** ### Integration & testing System connections, quality assurance, load tests. Before launch, not after. **Step 5** ### Go-live & operations Supported rollout with monitoring until everything runs stable. **Step 6** ### Continuous development We add new AI interfaces and commerce protocols once they're production-ready. Not sooner, not later. ## **TECHNOLOGY** ## The Technology Stack Behind Future-Ready Online Stores We build on open architectures instead of closed shop systems. The reason is simple: closed systems decide for themselves which interfaces they support. With open architectures, you decide. ### Headless Commerce Frontend and backend separated, so new interfaces don't mean a rebuild ### **GraphQL & REST APIs** Standardized interfaces for AI agents, marketplaces, and internal systems ### **Semantic search & LLMs** Product search that understands natural language ### Kubernetes & cloud Reliable operations, even when Black Friday gets serious ### GDPR-compliant architecture Data protection built in from the start, with fully European hosting available on request ## **INDUSTRIES & USE CASES** ## Who we build stores for ### **1.  Classic online stores** Scalable shop platforms with clean system integration, well-thought-out UX, and stable performance. Without any AI features, if that's the right solution. ### **2. B2B & industry** Configurators and product advisory systems that understand technical specifications and industry language. ### **3. Retailers with large catalogs** The more products, the bigger the leverage of an AI search that actually understands customers. ### **4. Stores with complex product data** Technology, spare parts, accessories: anywhere customers can't quite name the product they need. ## **CASE STUDIES** ## E-commerce and AI search in practice ![Mandelbaum.ai ](https://www.dynabase.de/hubfs/Mandelbaumai1.jpg) ### Mandelbaum.ai – AI search for online stores Semantic search that lets customers find products in natural language, without knowing the product name.

We built our own AI commerce product, Mandelbaum.ai, which now operates as an independent company. That experience — from model selection to data architecture to running under real load — goes into every client project. As an e-commerce development agency based in Cologne, Germany, we work with you from the architecture decision to day-to-day operations. And if a small rebuild is all you need, we'll tell you that too. Frequently Asked Questions About the Development of Agentic & E-Commerce Store Solutions Do you have any other questions? Ask us directly during your **free** initial **consultation.**   What is agentic commerce? Agentic commerce is online retail where AI agents take over parts of the buying process: finding products, comparing options, making recommendations, and increasingly, completing purchases. For store owners, that means one thing: the technology has to be built so machines can read and understand it. Do I need to replace my existing store entirely? No, often not. In many cases, a targeted rebuild of the data layer and interfaces is enough. Whether replatforming or rebuilding makes more sense is something we clarify in a commerce audit, before any proposal gets written. What does an agentic-commerce-ready store cost? New builds start in the mid five-figure range; rebuilds of existing systems often come in below that. The exact cost depends on your current system, catalog complexity, and the integrations involved. You'll get a first estimate in a free consultation. How do I make my store visible to AI agents? Three things decide it: structured, complete product data; open APIs instead of closed systems; and machine-readable markup of your content. That's exactly the foundation we build. Is all of this GDPR-compliant? Yes. We build data protection into the architecture from day one and can host entirely within Europe. Which setup fits your case depends on your requirements and is defined before the project starts. Let's talk about your store   Whether it's a new build, a modernization, or the step toward agentic commerce: in 30 minutes, we'll walk through where you stand and what can be achieved with what effort.
