Elastic Path Accelerates B2B Commerce with New Developer Toolkit

NEW YORK, NY – November 19, 2025

Composable Commerce Gains Momentum

Elastic Path has launched the Developer MCP Server, a tool designed to accelerate storefront development for B2B commerce. The company positions the server as a key component in the evolving landscape of composable commerce, where businesses are increasingly adopting modular, API-first architectures to build more flexible and customized experiences. The launch comes as demand for developer-friendly tools in complex B2B environments continues to grow.

“The traditional, monolithic approaches to commerce are struggling to keep pace with the demands of modern B2B buyers,” said one industry analyst. “Companies need the agility to rapidly iterate and deliver personalized experiences, and that requires empowering their development teams with the right tools.”

The Developer MCP Server aims to address this need by providing a streamlined development environment, pre-built components, and automated workflows. By enabling developers to focus on unique business logic rather than repetitive coding tasks, the tool promises to reduce time-to-market and lower development costs.

Closing the Developer Gap in B2B

Finding and retaining skilled developers remains a significant challenge for many businesses. The complexity of B2B commerce, with its intricate catalog structures, pricing rules, and customer-specific contracts, often requires specialized expertise. Elastic Path's new server seeks to bridge this gap by simplifying the development process and lowering the barrier to entry for B2B storefront development.

“A lot of companies are struggling with a shortage of skilled developers who understand the intricacies of B2B commerce,” said a source familiar with the project. “This tool is about empowering existing teams to do more with less, and accelerating the development of innovative B2B experiences.”

The server’s rapid scaffolding capabilities and automated workflows allow developers to quickly set up new storefronts or add features, reducing the time and effort required for complex projects. Pre-built components further streamline the development process, allowing developers to focus on customization and differentiation. It's a strategic move to address the ongoing challenge of finding and retaining skilled developers and accelerating innovation.

Beyond the Storefront: A New Era for B2B Commerce

The launch of the Developer MCP Server isn't just about improving the development process; it’s part of a larger shift in the B2B commerce landscape. Increasingly, B2B buyers expect the same seamless, personalized experiences they receive in the B2C world. Meeting these expectations requires a fundamental rethinking of how B2B commerce platforms are built and managed.

“B2B buyers are no longer satisfied with static catalogs and cumbersome ordering processes,” said one expert. “They want dynamic, personalized experiences that are tailored to their specific needs and preferences.”

Elastic Path’s commitment to composable commerce and its focus on developer empowerment position it as a key player in this evolving landscape. The company's microservices-based architecture allows businesses to build highly scalable and adaptable commerce solutions that can evolve with changing market demands. The launch of the Developer MCP Server signals a new era for B2B commerce, where agility, innovation, and customer experience are paramount.

While Elastic Path isn’t currently positioned as a leader in Gartner’s or Forrester’s main B2B commerce reports, several analysts note the company is well positioned to capitalize on the demand for more flexible, API-driven platforms. The emphasis on developer experience is a distinct differentiator as companies race to improve the speed and efficiency of their digital commerce operations. By prioritizing this developer focus, and with an architecture that lends itself to scalability, they are attempting to attract a specific niche of enterprise customers looking for API-first and customizable solutions.

The impact will be seen over time as organizations fully adopt the new tool and integrate it into their existing workflows, but the foundation has been laid for a more dynamic, agile, and customer-centric approach to B2B commerce.
