All-in-one business software, instead of four tools stitched together

A typical small business ends up with a website builder, a booking app, a store platform and an email or CRM tool — four subscriptions, four logins, and no single place that knows the whole business. Olmira replaces the stack: one login, one subscription, and one AI that has actually seen the whole business, not just the corner one tool was built for.

What actually changes when the seams disappear

One login, one team roster — Add a team member once and they can work across the site, the store, bookings and the back office with one set of roles — not four separate invitations to four separate tools, each with its own idea of what "Editor" means.

A sale is already an order, already a number — A paid appointment or a storefront order doesn't get re-typed anywhere. It's the same row that shows up in Balance, in analytics, and in the customer's own order history.

One AI that has read the whole business — The AI assistant included on every plan works from your actual catalogue, bookings and customers — not a chat widget bolted onto one tool with no visibility into the other three.

One bill, on one cadence — Every module you switch on shows up as one line on one invoice, on the cadence you picked — not four renewal dates landing on four different days of the month.

Profit, without the copy-paste

Balance computes revenue minus refunds, cost of goods and operating expenses for any period — and the revenue side isn't a number anyone types in. It's your store's and your bookings' actual paid orders, counted automatically. In a stack of separate tools, that number exists only if someone opens three dashboards and a spreadsheet and adds them up correctly, on time, every month. More on Management.

An assistant that has actually seen your business

The AI assistant is included on every plan, the trial included, and it works from whatever you've actually switched on. On a paid plan that means your real catalogue, bookings and customers, because it's built into the same system, not wired to one tool through a narrow integration. It drafts, translates and can do back-office work with your approval before anything changes. A chat widget bolted onto a single tool in a stack can only ever see that one tool's slice of the business. More on the AI assistant.

A Shopify alternative for businesses that sell more than products

Shopify is built around one shape: a shelf of products, checked out at the register. Most small businesses are more than a shelf — they sell products, services, subscriptions, appointments, reservations and custom work. Olmira holds all six in one catalogue, one checkout and one set of numbers, so the business you actually run is the business your software runs.

What changes when the catalogue isn't just products

The two products are built for different shapes of business. Here is what the wider shape gets you.

€0 platform fee, on every plan that sells — Olmira's revenue is your subscription, not a slice of your turnover. Whatever you sell, however much of it, the platform fee is €0 — always.

Your money never passes through us — Checkout runs on your own connected Stripe, PayPal or Klarna account. Settlement, payouts and disputes are between you and your provider.

Six selling types, one catalogue — Products, services, subscriptions, appointments, reservations and custom orders share the same catalogue, promotions engine and checkout — not six different products stitched together.

The server owns every price — Totals, tax and discounts are computed server-side and re-priced from the live catalogue at checkout, so a stale or tampered cart price can never reach an order.

Paid straight to you, from the first sale

Connect your own Stripe account in a couple of clicks, or add PayPal or Klarna credentials, and every charge lands in your account. Every selling plan includes one connected gateway; running a second alongside it — cards plus Klarna, say — is a Multi-provider payments add-on (€5/month on Pro, included from Pro+). Card payments are captured in-page, and gift cards work as tender — a card that covers the whole total means no charge at all.

When what you sell is an hour, not an item

Appointments and reservations are first-class selling types with real resources and server-owned availability behind them — a customer can never be handed a slot that's already gone. One thing that's specific to bookings: a paid-at-booking appointment always settles through your connected Stripe account, even on a store whose main gateway is PayPal or Klarna — the wider gateway choice above is a storefront-checkout feature, not yet a bookings one.

A Squarespace alternative with real operations underneath

A good-looking site is the start, not the job. The day you also need to take bookings, sell more than one kind of thing, or find out whether last month was actually profitable, you need an operations layer under the site — and that layer is what Olmira builds in, on the same login that edits the pages.

The operations part, actually built

Balance computes revenue minus refunds, cost of goods and operating expenses for any period, fed by your store's and bookings' real paid orders — no copying totals into a spreadsheet. Every expense carries a receipt and an approval step before it counts, so the number you look at on the first of the month is one you can defend, not one you half trust. Inventory tracks on-hand and reserved stock per location, with purchase orders on top. This is the module Squarespace doesn't have an equivalent to. More on Management.

A Wix alternative that runs the back office too

Building the page is the part every builder does. The day you also need to sell something, take a booking, or find out whether last month actually made money is the day a website builder and a business platform stop being the same kind of product. Olmira is the second kind — and it still builds the page.

Starting from the same job, then not stopping there

Here's where the two products diverge once "build a page" is done.

Edit the real page, not a preview — Click the text on the actual page and type — you're editing the rendered page itself, not a wireframe in a separate pane. Repeated blocks edit the same way: cards, gallery images, reviews, pricing rows, team members and table cells all take text inline, with a toolbar on the item itself to add, duplicate, reorder or delete one without leaving the canvas.

Describe the business, get a draft — The AI site generator turns a couple of sentences about your business into a multi-page starting point, built from real, editable sections — not a locked template.

A built-in SEO score, not a plugin — 18 checks, scored live on every page as you edit — title length, alt text, heading order and more — with a plain-language fix for each one.

Then it keeps going — The same login that builds the site can run a store, a booking calendar and the numbers behind them, because they're the same product, not three integrations.

Olmira vs. the WordPress + WooCommerce DIY stack

WordPress is free, open-source software you host yourself — which means somewhere, a server, a set of plugins and a security-patch schedule are your responsibility, or your host's, or a developer's you pay. Olmira takes that whole job off the table: hosting, updates and security are handled for you, continuously, as part of the subscription.

What "hosted" actually removes

The real cost of a self-hosted stack is who does which job. Here's what moves off your plate.

Nothing to host or patch — No server to provision, no PHP version to keep current, no core or plugin security patch to apply the week a vulnerability is disclosed. Updates are Olmira's job, continuously, for every account at once.

One vendor, one support line — When something breaks, there's one place to ask — not "is it my host, my theme, or one of a dozen plugins."

HTTPS handled automatically — Connect a domain, verify two DNS records, and a certificate is issued and renewed for you, forever — no certificate files, no expiry reminders. See custom domains.

One product, already integrated — The site, the store, bookings and the back office share one catalogue and one login by construction — not because every plugin you picked happens to talk to every other one.

What would otherwise be three separate plugins

Expenses with receipts and an approval flow, a real profit view (Balance), multi-location inventory with purchase orders, and EN 16931 e-invoices — all fed automatically by the same orders your store and bookings produce. On a self-hosted stack, this is typically WooCommerce plus a separate bookkeeping plugin plus a separate invoicing plugin, each maintained, updated and paid for on its own schedule. More on Management.

If you're moving off a stack, there's no big-bang cutover

1

Start with the site

Move the website first — nothing else has to change on day one. There's no direct importer from Shopify, Squarespace, Wix or WordPress; site builders generally don't export to each other. The AI site generator drafts a starting point from a description of your business, or you rebuild page by page with the content you already have.

2

Bring products and customers over by CSV

Export what you have and import it, mapping the columns as you go. AI can help fill in missing product descriptions during the review step, flagged so you see exactly what it wrote. Nothing publishes until you've reviewed it row by row.

3

Connect your own payment account

If you don't already have your own Stripe or PayPal account — separate from, say, Shopify Payments — opening one is part of the move; most take minutes. Olmira won't let you publish a selling page until a payment method is actually configured.

4

Point your domain over when you're ready

Two DNS records and a few minutes, and your current site stays live until the day you switch the domain — there's no dead period, no forced order and no deadline to hit.
