With gratitude to the people behind the platforms

Built on the shoulders
of giants.

Pagayo is focused. The platforms it stands on are vast. Six extraordinary tools — built by thousands of people over many years — make everything we do possible. Here they are, and here is why we picked each one.

01 The runtime

Cloudflare

One network. Everywhere on earth.

Every page, every API call, every database query, every payment webhook — they all run on Cloudflare's global edge network. Workers, D1, KV, R2, Queues, Workflows, Pages, DNS, Access, WAF. The entire Pagayo platform lives here.

  • No origin servers, no maintenance windows
  • 300+ cities, under 50ms from your customer
  • D1, KV, R2 — storage where the request lands

02 The payments

Stripe

The part that absolutely must be right.

Stripe handles the money. Cards, iDEAL, Bancontact, SEPA, Apple Pay, Google Pay, subscriptions, refunds, invoices, payouts, tax. Pagayo speaks one clean API and the rest is taken care of — every single time.

  • Every major payment method, one integration
  • Subscriptions, invoices, payouts, tax — handled
  • PCI compliance without lifting a finger

03 The workshop

GitHub

Nothing ships without a green check.

Every line of Pagayo lives on GitHub. Pull requests, Actions, releases, packages, secrets, environments — the whole build-and-ship pipeline runs there. Every deployment starts with a commit, and ends with a green check. Nothing ever bypasses it.

  • Every change reviewed in a pull request
  • Staging and production deploys via Actions
  • 13+ repositories, one consistent workflow

04 The reasoning layer

OpenAI

The quiet intelligence behind easy features.

OpenAI powers the parts of Pagayo that need to think — admin assistants, product help, content understanding, search relevance. The features that just feel easier than they should. The models keep getting better; Pagayo gets better with them.

  • Admin assistants that understand your shop
  • Smarter search, richer product help
  • New capabilities ride in on every model release

05 The editor

Cursor

A single operator, moving like a team.

Pagayo is built inside Cursor. It's where code is written, refactored, reviewed, and shipped. Multi-agent workflows, deep codebase context, instant edits across repos — Cursor is what turns a single operator into a development team that can move at the speed of the platform itself.

  • Multi-repo context across the whole platform
  • Parallel agents on independent tasks
  • From idea to deploy in the same window

06 The pair programmer

Claude

The engineer in the chair next to mine.

Claude reads the codebase, weighs trade-offs, writes careful changes, catches the bugs I would have shipped, and explains its reasoning along the way. Most of what gets built at Pagayo is built in conversation with Claude — and the platform is sharper for it.

  • Careful, reviewable code suggestions
  • Reasons out loud — no black-box edits
  • Long-context understanding of the codebase

Standing on, not standing in for.

Pagayo is not a thin wrapper over any of these tools. It is its own platform — its own data model, its own architecture, its own opinions about how commerce should work. But it would be foolish to pretend we built any of this alone.

To every engineer at Cloudflare, Stripe, GitHub, OpenAI, Cursor, and Anthropic: thank you. Pagayo exists because your work exists.
