Cimulate is an AI-native eCommerce search and discovery platform built on cutting-edge LLM technology. We help commerce brands deliver radically better shopping experiences—faster, more relevant, and easier to manage—by understanding context rather than relying on brittle rules-based personalization. Backed by top investors and founded by a team who’ve already built and sold another commerce startup (Celect to Nike), we’re now building the future of contextual commerce, and we’re just getting started.
