eExtend's answer:
The honest version: we didn't set out to build an AI company.
We run FME Modules, where we've built PrestaShop extensions for over ten years. So we spend our days close to real stores and real merchants, and
over the last couple of years we watched the same thing happen to all of them, and to us.
AI showed up, and everyone started bolting it on one piece at a time. A chatbot from one vendor. A translation tool from another. Something else
for writing product copy. Every one of them meant a new signup, a new API key, a new monthly bill, and a new dashboard to check. And none of them
knew anything about the store they were sitting on. The chatbot couldn't see the catalog. The copywriter didn't know the brand voice.
Our own store made it obvious. 150+ products across 8 languages is exactly the kind of catalog where translation and content generation should be effortless, and instead it was a mess of disconnected tools.
So we built the thing we wished existed. One subscription, one connector, every AI service sharing the same catalog and the same voice. We ran it on our own store first, for months, before we let anyone else near it.
That's eExtend. PrestaShop today, more platforms and more AI services next, all included as we build them.
