The platform

Everything a distributor needs to sell parts online.

Not a generic ecommerce theme. A purpose-built stack for catalogs measured in tens of thousands of SKUs, cross-references, and fitments.

Instant, typo-tolerant search

Algolia-backed search across part numbers, titles, OEM cross-references, and custom attributes. Faceted, shareable URLs, zero page reloads.

Invite-only customer portals

Give each account its own reserved inventory, custom pricing, and featured shelf — scoped, private, and tracked. Multi-tenant by design.

An admin your team enjoys

Products, companies, events, and role-based permissions in one clean console. CSV bulk upload, data-quality alerts, edits that go live instantly.

Automatic image pipeline

Every upload is auto-rotated, EXIF-stripped, resized, and re-encoded to WebP — 80% lighter, no visible quality loss.

SEO built into the core

JSON-LD structured data, dynamic sitemaps, per-product metadata, and branded OG images on every route — crawlable from day one.

Analytics that inform sales

See top searches and viewed products per account — so reps reach out with the right part before the buyer even asks.

The public storefront

A catalog that looks like a flagship product.

Every screen here is the real Automoty storefront, running on Manifold in production — one of many brands we tailor end to end. Fast, crawlable, and precise on every device.

Faceted catalog

Search 50,000 parts, filter to one.

Buyers filter by family, application, and attribute, or search by part number, vehicle, or OEM cross-reference. State lives in the URL — every filtered view is shareable and indexed by Google.

  • Instant results with zero page reloads
  • 48 SKUs per page, server-rendered and crawlable
  • Shareable, SEO-friendly filter URLs via nuqs
Product detail

Full spec sheets, part numbers, cross-refs.

Statically generated for sub-200ms loads. Each page carries the complete fitment table, primary SKU, and every OEM cross-reference — with Product and Breadcrumb structured data baked in.

  • Static generation with hourly revalidation
  • Dozens of cross-references rendered as badges
  • Rich JSON-LD for Google rich results

Customer portals

A private storefront for every account.

Turn key accounts into logged-in customers with reserved inventory, custom pricing, and a curated shelf — managed from one company page. Here's the lifecycle for a real account, Cadence Studio.

  1. 01

    Invite the account

    Create the company, send a one-click portal invite. They set their own password — no seats to provision.

  2. 02

    Curate their catalog

    Reserve stock, set per-company pricing, and feature the SKUs they buy most. Their portal updates instantly.

  3. 03

    Watch what they need

    Every search and product view is logged, so reps can reach out with the right part before the buyer asks.

How it works

From spreadsheet to storefront in weeks, not quarters.

01Week 1–2

We ingest your catalog

Send a spreadsheet, an export, or a shoebox of PDFs. We normalize SKUs, cross-references, fitments, and images into one clean schema — and index it for search.

02Week 2–4

We brand your storefront

Your logo, colors, and voice on a storefront tuned to your product families. Catalog, product pages, capabilities, and events — SEO-ready from day one.

03Week 4+

You go live and take over

Admin training, portal invites for key accounts, analytics wired up. From there your team runs it — no dev tickets to change a price or add a part.

Why teams switch

Built for the people who actually run the catalog.

Manifold gave our parts business the search and polish of a consumer store — on a catalog of 50,000 SKUs. It loads instantly, ranks on Google, and our key accounts finally have a portal of their own.

Pricing

Priced around what you actually need.

Every catalog is different — SKU count, integrations, how many accounts get their own portal. So we skip the rigid tiers: hop on a short call, we'll scope it together and quote a flat monthly fee. No surprises.
