Violet

Violet is on a mission to create a more open, distributed, and collaborative version of e-commerce. We're unlocking that vision with a unified commerce API that allows any online channel (social media platform, shoppable TV, gifting service, AR/VR platform, personal shopper site, online publication, etc.) to connect with any e-commerce platform or merchant’s backend. This direct connection allows shoppers to buy products directly, in whatever experience developers and app companies decide to build.

Building innovative commerce applications has traditionally required building bespoke, individual integrations into a multitude of e-commerce platforms. The cost and difficulty of those integrations has been an existential threat to companies and a barrier to innovation. With our headless API, any application can leverage seamless connections to merchant systems on 10+ e-commerce platforms, and we're adding more every month. These connections support synced product data, dynamic checkout, and what we're calling order writeback, enabling each in-app purchase to be no different than a purchase directly on a merchant’s website. We call this embedded or distributed commerce.

If you believe in this future, and want to work at a company that values empathy, curiosity, and the growth of our people, we'd love to have you come work with us.
