About Xumulus
An enterprise commerce studio betting that owning your data and index — not renting someone else’s API — is the durable way to build.
Two decades before “headless” had a name
Xumulus has built and operated large-scale commerce and enterprise content systems for twenty years — across Oracle WebCenter, Adobe Commerce (Magento), BigCommerce, Shopify, and Akeneo. We have lived through every platform cycle, which is exactly why we are opinionated about what lasts and what quietly boxes you in.
Why we build index-first
Most commerce stacks are built API-first — everything you can do is bounded by someone else’s schema, limits, and roadmap. We start from the opposite end: your catalog as a rich, owned document model on Elastic/OpenSearch, with search, discovery, merchandising, RAG, and the storefront built on top. Own the data and the index, and the API — and AI-readiness — take care of themselves.
How we work
Engagements usually start with a two-week Search & Discovery Audit: we quantify the upside hiding in your catalog and hand you a prioritized roadmap. From there we build the retrieval and storefront foundation — on Next.js and Elastic/OpenSearch — and can operate it for you. It’s the same architecture we’re productizing as Neuron Commerce, and the approach behind XSearch, our BigCommerce search app.
