About Emporiqa
Every shop deserves a salesperson on shift. Emporiqa is an AI chatbot that behaves like one — it knows your catalog, recommends products, handles objections, and walks shoppers to checkout, in 65+ languages. Built by a founder who spent fifteen years helping online stores run.
Why I Built Emporiqa
Walk into a good physical shop and a salesperson greets you, learns what you need, shows you two or three options, talks through the trade-offs, and rings up the sale. Walk into most online shops and you're on your own with a search bar.
Fifteen years building online stores (for household brands and for independent merchants across Europe) taught me that the gap is not technology. It's staffing. No store owner can put a trained salesperson on every page, at every hour, in every language their shoppers type.
So I built the salesperson into the store. Emporiqa reads your catalog, answers shoppers in their own language, recommends with reasoning, handles the objections your team hears every day, suggests the right size or variation, and walks them to checkout. When it shouldn't answer alone, it hands off to your team with the full conversation.
It's an AI chatbot in the category sense. It's a salesperson in behaviour. And it's built for the stores that most SaaS tools forget — WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Magento, Drupal Commerce, Shopware, Sylius. Not just Shopify.
If that sounds useful to your shop, create a free Emporiqa account or try the live demo. Happy to help with the setup.

Founder & CEO
Fifteen years building online shops — for household brands like Vodafone, Nestle, and Randstad, and for independent merchants across Europe. Most of that time watching store owners struggle with the same problem: no one on shift to help the shoppers who showed up. Emporiqa is the tool I wish those stores had.
I answer my own email. If you have a question about your store, your catalog, or whether Emporiqa fits — write to me directly.
Why Trust a Young Product
Picking software for your shop is picking a vendor you'll be calling next year. Here's what we can show, not claim.
EU company
Registered and operating inside the European Union. Your data stays under EU data-protection law. No corporate parent in a different jurisdiction.
GDPR by default
Your shopper data is not used to train AI models. Conversations retained only as long as you configure. Zero-retention endpoints with the model provider.
Six native plugins
Real, reviewed plugins for WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Magento, Drupal Commerce, Shopware, and Sylius — not a generic script tag. Listed on five public marketplaces.
Open-source plugins
Plugin source is public on wordpress.org, drupal.org, Packagist, and GitHub. Your developer can read it, audit it, and install it without trusting a black box.
One price, no surprises
Pay-as-you-go: $0.25 per conversation, capped at $59/month by default. You set the ceiling.
Founder answers the email
No support-ticket carousel for sales questions. I reply to onboarding and pre-sales email myself. If something breaks, I hear it first.
How I Build
What I care about when writing code and running this product
Your Data Stays Yours
Chat conversations are stored encrypted and auto-deleted after 90 days. I don't train on your data, I don't sell it, and I don't share it. GDPR-compliant by default.
No Vendor Lock-in
Your product data stays in your store. If you leave, you take everything with you. No export fees, no waiting period.
I Use It Too
I run the same platform on test stores before every release. If something is broken or annoying, I hit it first. Bug reports from customers still happen, but I catch most issues before they do.
Pay-as-you-go, No Tricks
$0.25 per conversation. You set the monthly cap (default $59). No per-message charges, no "contact sales" for basic features. AI model costs included. The homepage shows exactly what you pay.
