ChatGenie Joins Techstars Future of eCommerce Powered by eBay: A New Chapter in In-App Store Revolution

October 10, 2023 2:58 PM

We are thrilled to announce a significant milestone in ChatGenie's journey: our acceptance into the prestigious Techstars Future of eCommerce Accelerator Program Powered by eBay. This marks an exciting step forward for ChatGenie and a testament to our commitment to helping businesses through our In-App Stores.

‍

A Partnership that Paves the Way

Techstars is renowned for its global network of startup accelerators. It's a unique opportunity for startups like us to collaborate with industry leaders, mentors, and fellow entrepreneurs. This partnership with eBay, a global e-commerce giant, holds immense promise.

‍

The Power of In-App Stores

At ChatGenie, we've always believed that businesses should sell where their customers are. A clear strategy for maximizing return on ad spend on platforms such as Facebook, Messenger, and Instagram is to focus on selling within, rather than outside of, these platforms, such as through marketplaces or web stores. In a world increasingly defined by messaging apps, social media, and mobile wallet platforms, this means bringing the shopping experience directly to where users spend their time. This concept is at the heart of In-App Stores, and it's what sets ChatGenie apart from other eCommerce enablement platforms.

‍

What Is an In-App Store?

An In-App Store is a game-changer for businesses of all sizes. It allows them to seamlessly integrate e-commerce into popular messaging and social media apps like Messenger, Instagram, Viber, and even mobile wallet platforms like GCash. Imagine chatting with a business and, in the same conversation, exploring products, making purchases, and tracking orders. It's a frictionless, customer-centric shopping experience.

‍

Techstars: Accelerating Innovation

Joining Techstars is more than just a recognition of our potential; it's an opportunity to supercharge our growth. Through this program, we'll gain access to invaluable resources, mentorship, and industry expertise. It's like strapping a rocket booster to our mission of democratizing e-commerce and making In-App Stores the standard channel for selling online.

‍

The Road Ahead‍

Our journey with Techstars and eBay is just beginning, but we are already energized by the possibilities it holds. We're excited to learn, grow, and collaborate with like-minded innovators who share our passion for transforming the future of commerce.

‍

Thank You for Your Support

We couldn't have reached this milestone without the support of our incredible team, mentors, investors, and, most importantly, our loyal users and merchant partners. Your trust in ChatGenie is what fuels our commitment to innovative and exciting e-commerce solutions.

‍

What to Look Forward to

We invite you to stay tuned for updates on our journey and the incredible innovations that will emerge from this program. Together, we're poised to redefine how businesses connect with customers, and we can't wait to take you along for the ride. We are cooking up something that will empower digital content creators to showcase products and services within the ChatGenie Merchant Network and native payments within one of the Super Apps that we support.

‍

The future of In-App Stores is here, and ChatGenie is leading the way. Thank you for being part of our exciting adventure!

Your ChatGenie Team

April 22, 2025 12:54 PM

With today's large language models (LLMs), building a proof-of-concept (POC) for a chatbot is relatively easy, but turning that into a production-ready system is far more challenging. Early prototypes often impress in demos but can behave unpredictably in real-world use. The AI hype led to an explosion of AI projects and investments that have yet to produce return on investment. In large enterprises nearly nine out of 10 senior decision-makers said they have gen AI pilot fatigue and are shifting their investments to projects that will improve business performance, according to a recent survey from NTT DATA.”
