Bopizy: cross-Atlantic squad to scale a French click & collect SaaS.

Bopizy is a French startup founded in 2023 (Lille region, incubated at Eurea Technologies) that democratises click & collect for local merchants: butchers, charcutiers, market producers, local artisans — "those forgotten by digitalisation."

The product promise

• Merchant side: set up your e-shop in 5 minutes, no tedious product entry. The merchant takes a photo of their stall, computer vision detects the products and generates the e-commerce listing automatically
• Consumer side: order in a few clicks and come pick up the order, anchored in neighbourhood commerce

The Abbeal cross-Atlantic squad

To support platform construction, Abbeal deployed 2 full-time developers from Montreal, operating on European time zone to stay in sync with the founders in France and their first deployments (launch with the Dunkerque urban community):

• 1 CTO: microservices architecture, hosting platform (Cloud Run, Pub/Sub, Mongo Atlas), CI/CD, Scrum setup and facilitation
• 1 fullstack TypeScript developer: merchant onboarding journey with generative AI integration (GPT-3.5 / Gemini) to personalise e-shops, DDD APIs, Zod validation, Auth0 access, mobile UX optimisation

The tech stack

• Front: Nuxt 3 + Vue.js + TypeScript
• Back: Node.js + DDD + Zod + Auth0
• Data: MongoDB Atlas
• Infra: GCP (Cloud Run, Pub/Sub)
• Payments: Stripe
• AI: Computer Vision on stall photo + GPT-3.5 / Gemini for onboarding personalisation
• Method: Scrum, CI/CD, 10+ microservices architecture

The outcome

• 10+ microservices architected and operated (technical angle)
• 5 minutes to create your merchant e-shop
• Computer vision on stall photo → automated product listing
• 2 full-time devs in cross-Atlantic squad mode (Montreal ↔ Lille)
• Platform in production with first clients in test in spring 2025

Why Abbeal

A seed startup can't afford to build a full product team in Lille. But it needs a senior CTO and a fullstack capable of shipping fast. Abbeal delivered both from Montreal, on European time zone, with real technical autonomy. That's our Mobbeal cross-Atlantic format: a remote execution hub, fully aligned with the founders.
