For agencies
Build more webshops. Maintain far less.
One modern Laravel stack for every Magento client. Less time spent on hosting, modules and upgrades — more time for the work your clients actually pay for.
Why agencies build on Rapidez
Far fewer Magento modules
On average 80% of third-party and custom Magento modules can go. That means faster Magento updates, and no more waiting for extension vendors to catch up.
Lower hosting costs per client
Magento only handles the admin and API, while a lightweight Laravel app serves the storefront. Hosting costs typically drop by 75 to 90%.
Search and checkout included
Instant search, filters and autocomplete run on the Elasticsearch or OpenSearch your client already has, and a one-step checkout comes standard. No paid add-ons to license and maintain.
Hire Laravel developers
Magento frontend specialists are hard to find. Laravel developers aren't — and they'll feel at home in Rapidez right away.
Release within a minute
Frontend changes don't need Magento's code compilation or static content deploy. Change it, deploy it, done.
Straight to the core team
Questions go directly to the people who build Rapidez, on Slack. No ticket queue in between.
The numbers agencies care about
For your team
Your Laravel developers are already qualified
Rapidez is Laravel, Blade and Tailwind CSS. No layout XML, no phtml, no Knockout.js — so the Laravel developers you already have can start on client work right away.
Win the pitch
Promise green Lighthouse scores, and deliver them
Rapidez passes Core Web Vitals out of the box, so the speed you pitch is the speed your client gets. Show prospects the live demo, or the webshops already running on Rapidez.
Rapidez vs. Magento (Luma / Hyvä)
Hyvä is a theme for Magento, so with Luma and Hyvä alike your client's storefront stays inside Magento. Rapidez moves it into a separate Laravel application.

Frequently asked questions
Our developers don't know Laravel yet. Is that a problem?
There's a learning curve if your team has only worked with Magento, but it's a short one: Laravel is far easier to learn than Magento. Laracasts and the Rapidez docs will get your developers up to speed quickly.
Can we move an existing Magento client over gradually?
Yes. Standalone Checkout lets you add just the Rapidez checkout to a client's existing Magento frontend first, and move the rest of the storefront over when they're ready.
What if a client relies on a Magento module without a Rapidez alternative?
Most frontend modules aren't needed anymore, but for the odd one you'll build an alternative yourself. That's quick work in Laravel, with its huge package ecosystem — and we're happy to think along on Slack.
Does it handle multistore and B2B clients?
Yes. Every Magento store view can run with its own configuration, theme and styling. B2B shops get customer group prices and tier pricing, plus packages for quick order, reorder and quotes.
How do upgrades work across our client portfolio?
Every major release comes with documented breaking changes and an upgrade guide, and our version support policy tells you exactly how long each version keeps receiving fixes and security updates. You upgrade each client on your own schedule.
How is Rapidez licensed for client projects?
Rapidez is free and open source under the GNU GPLv3, for every project. No per-client or per-seat fees eating into your margins.
