E-commerce first
Every decision starts from the merchant's reality: catalog complexity, operational constraints, actual workflows and production reliability.

The agency
Versus: AI specialists for PrestaShop merchants
Versus is an AI agency built for e-commerce. The team focuses on a single challenge: helping PrestaShop merchants adopt AI agents and automation in production — without losing control, governance or clarity over what the systems are doing.
This means designing architectures from the ground up for AI operation, not adapting old ones. It means building modules, MCP gateways and agent orchestration systems that merchants can actually trust in their daily operations.
AI that is governable
Agents run in production only when they have clear responsibilities, validation rules and accountability. Speed without control is not the goal.
Technical depth
From module architecture to MCP gateway design to multi-agent orchestration: Versus works at the engineering level, not just the advisory level.
Combined expertise
What we build at Versus
As a senior developer at Versus, I bring the engineering layer to the agency's AI strategy. Together, we cover the full stack: from PrestaShop platform expertise to AI agent design, MCP integrations, automation architecture and production governance.
The goal is a single coherent answer to the merchant: what to build, how to operate it, and how to keep it under control as the system grows.
