  • Create functionality specific to your workflows—beyond generic plugins.
  • Connect Magento with ERPs, CRMs, WMS, or legacy software via custom APIs.
  • Build internal dashboards and tools your team will actually enjoy using.
  • Build internal dashboards and tools your team will actually enjoy using.
  • License your tool privately or list it on Adobe Commerce Marketplace.
  • Use Magento’s APIs for full control in headless builds.
