• Starter templates powered by top 1% of DTC brands: One-click activation of sections designed and implemented by premium DTC brands.

While in stealth mode, Nyla lined up an impressive portfolio of clients including Supergoop!, Jambys, Janessa Leoné, Corpus, Lula, Bokksu, Stryx and many more.

Nyla was founded in 2019 by founder and CEO Michael Bower, who was then chief of esteemed design and development agency Sellry. Working with top DTC e-commerce clients, he saw that brands often sacrifice speed and versatility as they grow and add more functionality to their site. Merchant sites have become bloated with plugins and apps that degrade the user experience and ultimately conversions. A number of established brands have started seeking headless solutions to solve this; however, these options require significant development resources, maintenance and upkeep. Nyla provides the ideal solution that combines best-in-class speed and features, making headless adoptable for any ecommerce brand.

“The results our merchants are seeing are out of this world,” says co-founder and CEO Michael Bower. “In an environment like today, every ad dollar counts; that is why we obsess over every millisecond of a page load and are proud to be a driver of revenue for our merchants.”

Brands running on Nyla can leverage the technology to run the lightning-fast landing pages or power their full frontend.

Nyla’s leadership team consists of e-commerce and startup veterans, including Juan Ferreras as Chief Technology Officer, Stephen Dorman as Chief Product Officer and Nick Anastasiades as Chief Growth Officer.

Nyla raised a $3.3M seed round in September 2021 led by MATH Venture Partners and Dundee Venture Capital with participation from FirstMile Ventures, Forum Ventures, and Summertime Capital.
