Launch YC: Amboras: Your self improving online store | Y Combinator

Source: https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/QRm-amboras-your-self-improving-online-store Hey everyone 👋

We’re Amin and Imad, cofounders of Amboras.

TL;DRAmboras is an AI native platform that puts the entire e-commerce stack on autopilot. Bring an existing store or start from scratch. It learns how your customers buy and autonomously ships the changes that make your store sell better.

Merchants get into e-commerce to build a business. Instead they’re stitching together a dozen apps, paying a CRO agency on retainer, and burning weeks with developers and analytics tools just to figure out what their customers actually want. Most stores plateau at a 2% conversion rate. What about the other 98%?

Amboras is making margins possible that weren’t possible pre AI.

Ask: Do you run an ecommerce store, or know someone who does? I’d love to speak to them directly:https://cal.com/imad-mokadem/amboras-team

Problem ❌

Ecommerce is a $30T+ global industry, still running on tooling that predates AI. Every layer of the stack is static and manual, so nothing a merchant learns ever compounds into a better store.

It comes down to four things:

1. **Static offers & storefronts.**Stores should learn from every interaction and adapt to every ICP. Today they don’t.
2. **Slow A/B testing.**Finding a winning storefront and offer means designers, CRO experts, developers, and weeks of waiting, just for a single test.
3. **No agentic layer.**No platform is built for the coming age of agentic purchasing.
4. **The plugin and agency tax.**A dozen apps charging you monthly, a CRO agency taking a retainer, and on top of that a cut of every conversion uplift they ship.

We built and grew our own educational board game brand to $200K/month, and watched our margins get eaten by exactly this overhead.

Solution ✅

Amboras is an AI native commerce platform. You run your store by talking to AI, and it runs itself on autopilot, getting better every day, hands free.

Part 1: Build or rebuild your store

No dashboards, no apps, no code. You tell Amboras what you want and it does it: generating or rebuilding your storefront, adding products, creating images and copy, testing offers, launching price changes. Building the store is simply the first thing you ask it to do. In the demo below, every action is done by AI. (If you already have a store, we can A/B test Amboras with your current setup, without any risk)

Part 2: Optimize from the first visitor

Every session feeds Amboras a richer picture of your customers, and the agent translates that picture into a constantly expanding test queue as your store scales. It autonomously ships offer tweaks, layout changes, and copy variants that compound your CVR, retention, and AOV, while learning about your ICP deeper with every visitor, all working toward the real goal of maximizing lifetime value per visitor. While you focus all your efforts on driving traffic to your page, your store keeps improving on its own, getting sharper the more it sees. Our A/B testing engine is in beta, and early merchants are already seeing over 80% CVR lift on the first version Amboras puts live.

Team

We’re brothers. Imad studied Mechanical Engineering at ETH Zurich, Amin studied Computer Science at ETH Zurich. We scaled our own educational board game brand to $200K/month, and lived every problem Amboras now solves. Our first attempt to fix it was EcomCoder, a Shopify dev tool we grew to over 1,000 users, until we realized fixing one piece wasn’t enough and the whole stack had to be rebuilt. That’s Amboras.
