Violet is creating a more open, distributed, and collaborative version of e-commerce, where shoppers can buy products *directly* inside social, livestream, sms, voice, AR, VR, or any other experience developers and app companies decide to build. Violet unlocks that vision with a single API that allows apps to connect directly to a brand or retailer’s e-commerce backend without the need for expensive and complex integrations into each e-commerce platform or system. Current platforms supported include: Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, Magento, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, PrestaShop, and many more. Violet’s unified commerce API enables any app to launch its own integrated checkout, connected to its own network of merchants, without any of the hassle.
