Why We're Building Calyper

Every D2C brand deserves the same personalization tools that Amazon uses to dominate ecommerce.

A D2C Brand's Reality

We watched a small D2C brand struggle with their Shopify store. They had beautiful products and loyal customers, but every visitor saw the exact same experience. Four different apps—popups, recommendations, upsells, reviews—none talking to each other.

"Why can't our store be smart like Amazon?" they asked.

The problem was clear: personalization tools were either too complex for D2C brands or priced for enterprise budgets.

The Reality

  • ❌ 4 different apps that don't communicate
  • ❌ Same experience for everyone
  • ❌ Random, irrelevant suggestions
  • ❌ No way to track what's working

Enterprise Insights

Working at Salesforce on Interaction Studio, we saw how enterprise brands solved this exact problem with unified personalization systems.

These companies increased conversion rates by 15-30% and AOV by 20-40% with smart personalization. The secret? Showing the right products to the right customers at the right time.

But these solutions cost $100K+ annually. Meanwhile, millions of Shopify stores were stuck with generic experiences.

Enterprise Success

  • ✅ Unified customer tracking
  • ✅ Real-time decision making
  • ✅ Coordinated experiences
  • ✅ 15-30% conversion lift
  • ⚠️ $100K+ cost, complex setup
