The last decade has seen hyper-growth in the digital commerce space, and selling online is no longer just about having a webshop. New technologies enable merchants to deliver much more sophisticated experiences, iterate much faster on new features, and leverage a large variety of sales channels (SoMe, Apps, ChatBots, etc.). Unfortunately, existing platforms with monolithic architectures are too rigid to support this new wave of commerce technologies. This is where Medusa comes in.
Medusa is the open-source alternative to Shopify. With Medusa, you get a robust set of features supporting all conventional commerce operations. What sets us apart is our composable architecture allowing merchants to build out fantastic customer experiences using best-in-breed services and add custom functionality to fit the exact needs of their business without compromising on the scalability of the setup.
In July 2021, we raised funding from top-tier investors (Seedcamp and angels from Netlify, Contentful, Algolia, and more) and have, since the official launch in August 2021, gained ~10,000 GitHub stars, seen +4,000 new projects, and attracted +1,500 community members. The traction and interest in Medusa have been overwhelmingly positive, and all this is a result of a skilled team working towards a common goal - come join!
