Any app for any ecom job.
Everything you do in CCEN is an app. Some are ours. Some are third-party from the marketplace. Some are custom builds your team forked or prompted our AI to write. Install it. Customize it. Or describe what you want in English, and let our AI build you a custom one in an afternoon.
Stock positions, transfers, reorder points across every location.
Recurring orders, dunning, churn analytics. 100% to developer.
Modified RMA flow. B2B credit memos. Private to your tenant.
Every app plays by the same rules.
Every app on CCEN runs in its own secure container. Including ours. Inventory, Shipping, Finance, Returns, Channels, Warehouse, Marketing, all play by the same rules a third-party developer plays by. We don't get backdoors, and they don't either.
Apps run in their own secure containers so they can't see each other's data and they can't break the rest of CCEN. We use the same isolation pattern Stripe, Shopify and Google Docs use for embedded apps. From your seat: install any app from the marketplace, and trust it can't go anywhere it shouldn't.
Apps talk to CCEN through one shared toolkit. They read your orders. They open dialogs that look like the rest of CCEN. They register their own keyboard shortcuts. They inherit your theme, your timezone, and your team's identity. Everything looks and feels like one product, even when seven different developers wrote the apps.
First-party, third-party, custom. All peers.
The sidebar does not tell you which app is ours and which app is a third-party install. They feel like one product because they all play by the same rules.
Reference L1 apps
The default app for each operational area, written by us and shipped open-source. Fork it. Tweak it. Ship your own version for your team. We use the same toolkit a third-party developer uses, so we feel every bump they would feel.
Marketplace apps
Built by independent developers. Listed at apps.ccen.co. Developers keep 100% of subscription revenue (yes, really). CCEN only charges for the compute and storage an app actually uses, at cost. The 30% marketplace tax is the reason a lot of niche commerce apps don't exist. We took it off the table.
Internal micro-apps
Forks of our reference apps. Custom dashboards. Quirky tools your team builds (or asks our AI to build) in an afternoon for the seventeen ways your business is weird. Lives in your account only. Never has to be 'submitted' anywhere.
Prompt our AI to build a custom app for your business in an afternoon.
Tell our AI what you need, in English. It plans the changes, drafts the code, and shows you a live preview on your real data before anything ships. No engineer required. No "submit your app for review."
The same toolkit our team uses to build CCEN's first-party apps. The same isolation. The same data access. The same audit trail. Your team builds a tool for your business in an afternoon, not a quarter.
See AI build a custom app“Add a packing slip section that prints my brand guarantee under every shipment.”
“Build me a dashboard tile that shows my top 20 wholesale accounts ranked by 90-day GMV.”
“Fork the CS app and add a Mandarin auto-reply for our APAC inbox between 9pm and 9am Pacific.”
Every L1 reference app on GitHub.
The default apps you see on CCEN are the same apps that are open-source on GitHub. No "pro" version we keep behind closed doors. Fork them. Send a pull request. Open an issue when something feels wrong. The code you read is the code you run.
Reference L1 Inventory app. Stock positions, transfers, reorder logic.
Reference L1 Shipping app. Labels, manifests, carrier rates, tracking.
Reference L1 Returns app. RMAs, refunds, exchanges, restocking.
Reference L1 Warehouse app. Picking, packing, bin management, cycle counts.
Reference L1 Channels app. Shopify, Amazon, Walmart, eBay, EDI mappers.
Reference L1 Finance app. Reconciliation, payouts, chargebacks, GL feed.
Reference L1 CS app. Helpdesk on real order data, SLA tracking, unified inbox.
Reference L1 Marketing app. MTA, MMM, calendar, campaign tagging.
Every reference app is a fork starter.
Our reference apps are the spec. Fork one and you have a working app on day one. Edit it and you have your customization. There is no separate "real" version we hold back.
Don't like how the Returns app handles B2B credit memos? Fork it. Tell our AI what you want changed. Ship a custom version for your team in an afternoon. Keep it private or share it back to the marketplace.
Open the Returns app, the CS app, the Inventory app. Whichever default you want to tweak. Click 'Fork.'
Describe what you want changed. Talk like you're briefing a junior engineer. No code required.
Side-by-side preview. Click through the new flow on real test data. Approve, edit, or ask for revisions.
Private to your account, or publish to the marketplace. Done in an afternoon, not a quarter.
"Add a credit-memo path for B2B customers that bypasses the consumer refund flow. Route based on whether the customer is wholesale."
Zero marketplace tax. By design.
The 30% marketplace tax is what makes building a niche commerce app uneconomical on every other platform. We took the operator side of that bargain off the table.
We are an operating system, not a rent-seeker. A healthy app marketplace makes CCEN more valuable to operators, which is the actual business. Taxing the developer ecosystem to extract a second revenue line works against that incentive. We get paid when the operator pays for the platform. Developers get paid by the operators who install their apps. The math is uncomplicated.
Apps can't peek at each other.
Every app runs in its own secure container, the same way Stripe and Shopify isolate embedded apps. Even our apps. Apps only see the data you grant. Permission prompts are explicit and revocable. The browser itself, not just our code, enforces the boundary.
- Each app gets its own home
Cookies and storage stay with that app. Never leak to others.
- Locked-down code delivery
Even an app's own developer can't sneak in unverified code without your team noticing.
- Minimum permissions
Apps run with the minimum permissions they need. Nothing more is granted by default.
- Modern browser hardening
Hardened against the latest browser-level memory attacks. The technical acronyms are documented for your security team.
- Permission prompts
App access (read orders, write transfers, etc.) is explicit, revocable, and logged.
