Retail & E-commerce FAQs
How can AI help retail without replacing our current platform?
We integrate with your existing platform through its APIs and storefront SDK, then add AI capabilities such as search, recommendations, and support automation on top. You keep your current platform.
Can this work with Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, custom storefronts, or ERP systems?
Yes. We support Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento / Adobe Commerce, WooCommerce, and custom storefronts, and we integrate with common ERP, CRM, and email platforms through their APIs.
Can Mars Innovation Technology help with product search and recommendations?
Yes. The Commerce AI Launchpad deploys semantic search and a personalized recommendation engine trained on your catalogue and purchase history, with A/B testing to measure lift.
Can this support international expansion?
Yes. We build localization-ready, scalable commerce foundations. Some Canadian businesses expanding into new international markets may also be able to explore export-support funding pathways — eligibility is assessed case by case and funding is not guaranteed.
Is funding guaranteed?
No. Funding is never guaranteed. Programs change frequently and eligibility is assessed case by case. We can help you scope a practical project and identify possible funding pathways to explore with an official advisor.
