Built a e-commerce store with Aider?
We'll make it production-ready.
E-commerce apps handle money and personal data — there's zero margin for error. AI tools build great-looking product pages and shopping carts, but the critical details — inventory management, payment security, order processing, and shipping calculations — need professional attention before you take real orders.
E-Commerce Store challenges in Aider apps
Building a e-commerce store with Aider is a great start — but these challenges need attention before launch.
Payment security and PCI compliance
You're handling credit card transactions. While Stripe and similar services handle PCI compliance on their end, your integration must not expose card data, must verify webhook signatures, and must handle failed payments gracefully.
Inventory management
What happens when two customers buy the last item simultaneously? AI tools don't implement inventory locking or race condition prevention. Overselling damages trust and creates costly fulfillment problems.
Order processing pipeline
Orders move through states: pending, confirmed, processing, shipped, delivered. Each transition triggers actions (emails, inventory updates, accounting entries). AI tools build the checkout but not the order lifecycle.
Shipping and tax calculation
Real shipping costs vary by weight, destination, and carrier. Sales tax varies by jurisdiction. These calculations need to be accurate and up-to-date — getting them wrong is either illegal (tax) or margin-killing (shipping).
Performance under load
Product launches and sales events spike traffic. Your site needs to handle 10x normal load without crashing. Image optimization, caching, and CDN configuration are essential for a fast shopping experience.
What we check in your Aider e-commerce store
Common Aider issues we fix
Beyond e-commerce store-specific issues, these are Aider patterns we commonly fix.
Incomplete security implementations
Aider implements security features in the files it touches but misses corresponding changes in other files — like adding auth to one route but not others.
Partial refactoring across files
Aider sometimes updates function signatures in one file but misses call sites in other files, causing runtime errors.
Git history cluttered with fix commits
Aider's iterative approach creates many small 'fix' commits that make Git history hard to follow and review.
Missing cross-file optimizations
Performance improvements applied to individual files but not the system-level patterns that cause the real bottlenecks.

Frequently asked questions
Can I build a e-commerce store with Aider?
Aider is a great starting point for a e-commerce store. It handles the initial scaffolding well, but e-commerce stores have specific requirements — payment security and pci compliance and inventory management — that need professional attention before launch.
What issues does Aider leave in e-commerce stores?
Common issues include: incomplete security implementations, partial refactoring across files, git history cluttered with fix commits. For a e-commerce store specifically, these issues are compounded by the need for payment security and pci compliance.
How do I make my Aider e-commerce store production-ready?
Start with our code audit ($19) to get a clear picture of what needs fixing. For most Aider-built e-commerce stores, the critical path is: security review, then fixing core flow reliability, then deployment. We provide a fixed quote after the audit.
How much does it cost to fix a Aider-built e-commerce store?
Our code audit is $19 and gives you a complete report of issues. Fixes start at $199 with our Fix & Ship plan. For larger e-commerce store projects, we provide a custom fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing.
