What we learned building
Notes on e-commerce, custom software and artificial intelligence, written from the projects we deliver.
Yacyretá opened its spillway: how artificial intelligence can anticipate a flood and protect the river
EBY opened the spillway as the Paraná flooded. What the data says, how AI improves flow forecasts and what drones and cameras add once the water drops.
Fear of technology is expensive: what Rosario and Funes SMEs lose by not having a digital employee
Digital or virtual employee: what a retail job costs and what Rosario and Funes SMEs lose by not automating repetitive work.
Virtual employees in Argentina: the benefits that actually matter
Answering WhatsApp around the clock, getting through a CyberMonday without adding headcount and taking the repetitive work off your team: the benefits of virtual employees in Argentina, and what to do if you'd rather have people leveraging powerful AIs.
What Endeavor's HIT program gave us (and why we'll be at Experiencia Endeavor Rosario 2026)
Last year we went through HIT, Endeavor Argentina's flagship program, and it changed how we think about the company: we reorganized our internal structure, sharpened our pitch, and along the way reconnected with someone who's now a client and a friend. Experiencia Endeavor returns to Rosario on September 17, and we'll be there.
Automation for Rosario small businesses: the free tools to start with today
Rosario currently has 90 small businesses going through a municipal digital diagnostic program, and the local tech hub just launched the country's first AI-leadership certification. You don't need to wait for either to get started: here are the genuinely free automation tools any small business can use today, no developer or budget required, and when it's time to move to something more serious.
Agentic commerce in Rosario and Funes: how we think local e-commerce is about to change
Amazon just renamed Rufus to “Alexa for Shopping” and lets it buy on your behalf. Mercado Libre confirms AI is already accelerating its revenue and is building its own assistant. None of this stays in San Francisco or Buenos Aires: here's how we think it reaches Rosario and Funes, starting with something as unglamorous as the abandoned cart.
Agentic commerce: the infrastructure already works, the rules still don't
Google gave away its AI payments protocol to a neutral consortium, Stripe watched its first in-chat checkout experiment fail, and Brazil already completed Latin America's first fully agentic purchase. In the European Union, meanwhile, not a single rule has been written for any of this yet. Here's how agentic commerce is actually being built, not the version being sold.
How a software factory works: our process step by step
Diagnosis, architecture, staged builds, integration with what you already have, and support after delivery. This is the real process behind every custom software project we run.
What is Rosario's Tech Hub (and why the city matters for hiring software development)
Rosario has 25 years of dedicated tech infrastructure behind it, this isn't an improvised tech city. Here's what the Rosario Tech Hub actually is, and what it means to run a software factory from here.
95% of AI projects fail, MIT says: the cause isn't the technology
An MIT study found that 95% of enterprise AI pilots generate no measurable financial return. Our take, after years building this for real clients: the model was never the problem.
Agents that pay on their own: what Stripe built, and why this is just starting
Stripe launched a wallet that lets AI agents pay on your behalf without ever seeing your card, and co-wrote with OpenAI the protocol behind ChatGPT's checkout. It's not the only bet -Coinbase is pushing stablecoin payments- and it isn't a sure thing yet: here's what actually exists today, not the promise.
An OpenAI model hacked a real company to win a test: the lesson isn't to fear AI
GPT-5.6 Sol escaped a controlled environment and breached Hugging Face's infrastructure. Our read, as a team that builds with AI every day: this was inevitable, and it's the wrong question everyone's asking.
Agentic commerce is here: what your e-commerce needs for an AI agent to recommend it
Salesforce, Google and Shopify just shipped AI agents that shop on a person's behalf. Here's what decides whether your store gets recommended or simply doesn't exist to them.
The business isn't implementing AI: it's solving bottlenecks
Companies without ordered processes fail at implementing AI. What you're actually hiring isn't a model, it's a team that has already solved real market problems.
Selling wholesale and retail in the same store without breaking anything
The same product, two prices, two business logics. How we built a store that serves both audiences without duplicating the catalog or driving the team crazy.
When it's worth automating a process with AI (and when it isn't)
Not every repetitive process needs artificial intelligence. The criteria we use to decide, before writing a single line of code.
Digitizing an industry that never asked for it
Not every sector was already pushing toward digital. How we open an online channel in an industry where neither the customers nor the competition were asking for one.
Integrating payment gateways in Argentina: what nobody tells you upfront
Choosing the gateway is the easy part. The decisions you can't undo later are the ones worth making on day one.
Custom software, or a platform that already exists?
The question isn't which one is better, it's where your competitive edge actually is. A criterion to decide without falling in love with the answer.
Your slow site is costing you sales (and you can measure how much)
Speed isn't a technical metric: it's money. What to measure, what to ignore, and where to start without rebuilding everything.
What to ask your software vendor (even if you're not technical)
You don't need to know how to code to tell if what's being built for you is healthy. The questions that separate a good vendor from one that will leave you stuck.
How to build a chatbot that doesn't annoy people
Most chatbots make service worse instead of better. The design decisions that separate a useful one from one people dodge.
An MVP is not a half-built product
\"Let's ship an MVP\" became the excuse for delivering something incomplete. What it actually is, and how to define one that's worth doing.
