We bring the backend. You bring the frontend.

Commerce infrastructure for stores that bring their own frontend.

litecommerce is the multi-tenant commerce backend for catalog, inventory, orders, pricing, returns, media, and audit — delivered through clean REST APIs your frontend can consume from any stack.

Shipped today

Backend primitives, not another storefront cage.

These capabilities are available in production today.

Multi-Tenant by Design

Staff sign-in, team roles, permission presets, and organization switching for teams managing multiple brands.

Catalog You Can Operate

Products, variants, collections, and CMS pages with create, edit, archive, and restore — all backed by real API writes, not placeholder alerts.

Inventory That Tells the Truth

On-hand, reserved, and available stock per variant. Auto-reserves on order, releases on cancel, decrements on fulfillment — with low-stock alerts and back-in-stock notify-me capture.

Orders + Fulfillment

Order statuses, line items, notes, and a customer activity timeline. A fulfillment status flow and a filterable orders list — real order management, not a stub.

Pricing Rules That Convert

Coupon codes, automatic cart discounts, scheduled sale windows, product bundles, and compare-at pricing — applied at the storefront cart through the API.

Tenant-Owned Payments

Connect and verify your own Stripe account, then receive direct charges there. Your business stays merchant of record while litecommerce scopes saved cards, tax, webhooks, and refunds to the account that processed the payment.

Returns + Shipping

Customer return requests with a merchant approval state machine and Stripe refunds on completion. Configurable shipping zones and rates with storefront rate preview.

Catalog Media Without the Glue Code

Signed upload URLs, item and collection images, alt text, and focal point — tenant-scoped and ready for any frontend stack.

Audit Log for the Things That Matter

Admin writes, auth events, API-key changes, and platform support access — persisted, queryable, and visible in admin.

Tenant Settings + Onboarding

Business profile, configuration foundation, and a setup checklist that platform staff can see too.

How it works

  1. 01

    Sign Up

    Sign up for litecommerce. Once approved, set up your store on the Free plan.

  2. 02

    Connect Your Agent

    Give your coding agent our Storefront Skill and your store’s connection details. Configure a scoped, server-side API key for integrations that need one.

    Set Up Your Agent
  3. 03

    Prompt Your Storefront

    Describe your brand, layout, and shopping experience. Your agent builds a custom storefront against litecommerce’s APIs.

  4. 04

    Bring Your Catalog

    Add products and media in merchant admin, or work with us to import your existing catalog.

  5. 05

    Launch Your Store

    Finish your domain, payment, and shipping setup, test the buying experience, and publish your storefront.

We currently help with account approval, API access, and catalog imports during onboarding.

On the roadmap

What's next for litecommerce.

Explore features in development and planned next steps. Each preview is labeled; release scope and availability will be confirmed as it launches.

Taxes at Checkout

In Development

Calculate checkout tax through the merchant's verified Stripe account when the tax provider is enabled and ready.

Bookings and Scheduling

In Development

Services, availability, calendar holds, deposits, and reschedule/cancel policies.

Customer Subscriptions

In Development

Recurring customer plans, billing cycles, subscription changes, and access tied to each subscription.

POS and In-Person Sales

In Development

Sell in person from a mobile device, with payments, inventory, and sales connected to the same store.

Self-Service API Key Management

In Development

Manage server-side API keys, scopes, and integration access from merchant admin, with clearer setup tools for your agent.

Manual Checkout Recovery

In Development

Review incomplete hosted checkouts and send eligible shoppers a manual reminder to return to the storefront cart. No automatic sending or exact cart restoration.

Customer Profile Tools

Planned

Expanded profile editing, notes, tags, and customer relationship tools beyond the existing customer directory.

Guided Catalog Migration

Planned

Source-platform connectors, guided catalog imports, validation, and clear import progress.

Promotion Controls and Storefront Previews

Planned

Expanded merchant controls and storefront previews for promotion eligibility and sale exclusions.

Carrier Tracking Automation

In Development

Carrier-event updates for labels bought through litecommerce, building on the shipping-label and shipment-preparation tools available today.

Payment-Method Controls

In Development

Choose which payment methods you offer, with clear availability rules across checkout and recurring billing.

Storefront-to-Checkout Analytics

In Development

Consent-aware continuity and attribution between storefront and hosted checkout, beyond the existing hosted-checkout analytics setup.

Buy Online, Pick Up In Store

Planned

Offer pickup choices online and coordinate store stock, pickup readiness, and customer handoffs.

Expanded Returns and Return Shipping

Planned

Additional return options and return-shipping workflows beyond the existing return approvals and original-payment refunds.

Storefront Sandbox Testing

In Development

Test tenant-hosted storefronts and checkout with isolated commerce data, building on the Admin environment foundation. Full storefront and test-payment adoption is still in progress.
