Solara28

Founded, ideated, architected and single-handedly developed Solara28, an AI-native multi-tenant SaaS platform for European commerce verticals — food services, restaurants, pharmacies, grocery retailers, wine and spirits, catering, coffee shops and event ticketing — positioned under the vision “Illuminate your commerce” as a local-first, zero-commission alternative to global marketplace aggregators and platforms such as Amazon, Shopify, Just Eat, Deliveroo, PrestaShop and WooCommerce. Evidence ↗
Architected and implemented a governed Agentic Factory coordinating eight specialised virtual teams and 32 autonomous AI agents across the end-to-end software delivery lifecycle, generating 6,000,000+ lines of production-ready code, documentation and change artefacts in under one year across a polyglot stack (TypeScript, Supabase/PostgreSQL, FastAPI, Stripe, Vercel).
An audited codebase review (August 2026) across eight engineering roles — frontend, backend, database, QA/security, DevOps, localisation, architecture and documentation — estimated the work at about 274.8 person-years (60,462 working days), roughly 275 engineers for one year, with a salary-equivalent labour value of about CHF 30.1M / EUR 19.6M at the midpoint (range CHF 25.9M–34.3M / EUR 15.5M–23.7M); all of it was delivered single-handedly. Evidence ↗
Established Solara28 as a large-scale reference implementation of Agentic AI product engineering, demonstrating the viability of autonomous multi-agent systems in enterprise-grade software delivery.
Delivered mobile-first, WCAG-accessible experiences in five languages from day one — Italian, English, German, French and Spanish — with theme-based templates for 9+ store verticals, including restaurant ingredient customisation, pharmacy prescription workflows and event ticketing with QR check-in.
Delivered 300+ discrete business functions across platform and store contexts, including product catalogue management with customisers, multi-step checkout, order lifecycle management, delivery-zone configuration, driver assignment, workforce logistics, automated SDI e-invoicing and support/ticketing workflows.
Architected a provider-agnostic LLM service layer (TypeScript/Node.js/Supabase) connecting OpenAI, Anthropic and Gemini APIs, with configurable provider settings, prompt governance, conversation logging and health monitoring, powering conversational and voice-enabled commerce (“Talk to Your Shop”), automated catalogue ingestion from PDFs, photos and Excel, and predictive revenue forecasting.
Embedded operational AI directly into the commerce execution layer: one-click PDF-to-live-store catalogue imports, natural-language conversational assistants, voice-enabled customer ordering via chatbots, a Merchant AI Assistant and predictive CRM analytics built natively into the platform.
Built a polyglot, high-performance stack on TypeScript, Supabase/PostgreSQL, FastAPI and Apache Spark, supporting real-time operations, analytics and scalable AI workloads.
Designed a fully API-first commerce infrastructure governing the complete retail lifecycle — dynamic catalogue management, logistics and proprietary driver-network routing, native multi-channel CRM and loyalty analytics — enabling modular extensibility and third-party integrations.
Built the platform administration domain: store onboarding and lifecycle, subscriptions and seat management, permission templates, monitoring dashboards, feature flags, audit and operational tooling, cross-store analytics, and billing with SDI e-invoicing for Italy.
Built the store operations domain: catalogue and category management, order lifecycle and control centre, delivery operations and driver management, reviews moderation, reporting and analytics, theme and branding configuration, and staff management including bulk import.
