Insights on AI agents, RAG systems, and intelligent automation.
Headless commerce, open-source shop systems, and AI in online retail: these articles cover how modern commerce stacks are built with Medusa.js and friends, and where AI agents deliver measurable value in e-commerce — from product data to customer service.
Where to deploy a Medusa v2 backend, decided by what Medusa actually requires from a host: the Railway path I run in production, why Vercel is a storefront host and not a backend host, and when a bare VPS wins on price.
The production stack behind a Medusa v2 marketplace with 10,000 products and 50 vendors: the architecture, what it actually costs on Railway and Cloudflare R2, and the two pitfalls that cost the most time — the WooCommerce migration and worker mode.
An honest cost comparison: Shopify plans and transaction fees against self-hosted Medusa, calculated across three scenarios over three years. Including the result vendor content leaves out: sometimes Shopify wins.
The three serious open-source headless commerce platforms compared for production use: architecture, licensing (one of them is not as free as you think), cloud pricing models, repo health in numbers, and who should pick what.
The first independent review of Mercur, the open-source marketplace platform built on Medusa: what the MIT edition really includes, repo health in numbers, setup experience, and who should (not) build on it.
Open source vs SaaS vs enterprise: the three marketplace platform models compared on cost structure, ownership, time to market, and EU compliance, by someone who runs a marketplace and sells none of these products.
The practical path from zero to a running open-source marketplace: the decisions to make before you start, the verified Mercur setup, vendor onboarding, commissions and payouts — and the parts operators underestimate.
Ten platforms compared by someone who deploys them, not just lists them: verified licenses and repo health, an eight-dimension master table, a decision matrix by team type, real production costs, and the marketplace category everyone else skips.
Why Medusa.js v2 is the most AI-agent-friendly commerce framework in 2026, with a practical playbook for Claude Code, Cursor, and the official Medusa MCP server.
