Emersoft Launches First Complete Commerce Solution for Online and Brick-and-Mortar Bookstores

Published

on

Emersoft’s Books Shopify App with Pubnet integration creates the only complete solution for bookstores managing both online storefronts and physical retail locations through a single platform.

St. Petersburg, FL, United States, 16th Jan 2026 — Emersoft has announced plans to launch a Pubnet electronic ordering integration for the Emersoft Books Shopify App in Q1 2026, creating the only complete commerce solution designed to serve both online booksellers and brick-and-mortar bookstores through a single platform. While existing technology platforms address either ecommerce or physical retail operations, the new integration enables bookstores to manage online storefronts, in-store sales, inventory, and publisher ordering through one system: Shopify plus the Emersoft Books App.

The integration solves a fundamental challenge facing independent booksellers who operate both physical stores and online channels. Traditional solutions require separate platforms for ecommerce, point-of-sale, and ordering, forcing retailers to manually reconcile data across systems. The Emersoft solution transforms Shopify into a unified operational hub where every sale—whether at the counter, online, or at events—feeds the same real-time inventory data and purchasing workflow.

By connecting Shopify POS for brick-and-mortar locations, Shopify ecommerce for online sales, and Pubnet for Electronic Data Interchange with publishers, the system enables booksellers to manage their entire operation in one place. This represents the first technology platform specifically designed to eliminate the operational divide between online and physical bookstore channels.

The system operates through real-time data synchronization across all sales channels. When transactions occur at the counter, online, or at events, inventory updates instantly by location without requiring end-of-day reconciliation. This live inventory data provides staff with immediate visibility into sell-through patterns and reorder requirements, enabling purchasing decisions based on actual sales rather than estimates or buyer intuition.

Purchase orders are created directly within Shopify rather than through separate vendor portals. Staff selects titles for reordering, and Emersoft generates purchase orders that are transmitted through Pubnet’s Electronic Data Interchange network to the appropriate publishers and distributors. Order acknowledgments, shipping notifications, and invoices flow back into Shopify and attach directly to the originating purchase orders, eliminating the manual tracking and email management traditionally required for order fulfillment.

“Every other solution forces booksellers to choose between platforms optimized for online or optimized for brick-and-mortar,” said Marcin Ruman, founder of Emersoft. “We built the only system that actually works for both. One system—Shopify plus the Emersoft Books App—manages your physical store, your website, and your publisher relationships. Everything in one place.”

The system delivers operational benefits for bookstores regardless of whether they operate primarily online, primarily brick-and-mortar, or both. Real-time inventory synchronization means a sale at the physical counter instantly updates the same inventory count that online customers see, eliminating out-of-stock purchases on the website. Purchase orders created for in-store restocking automatically reflect in the online catalog. The same ISBN database, inventory counts, and reorder logic serve both channels without separate management workflows.

For brick-and-mortar operations, staff gain immediate visibility into what is selling, what inventory is low, and what requires reordering, grouped by publisher or distributor. This enables newer team members to execute accurate purchasing while senior buyers focus on curation. For online operations, live inventory eliminates customer frustration from ordering unavailable titles and reduces refund requests. Bookstores operating both channels benefit from managing everything through one system rather than reconciling separate ecommerce and point-of-sale platforms.

Most book suppliers require terms accounts to accept electronic orders through Pubnet. Emersoft works with MVB, which administers Pubnet services, to help bookstores establish the necessary business credit and convert accounts to terms status. Setup requires a one-time fee of $75, which is waived for American Booksellers Association members, with no ongoing subscription costs for Pubnet access.

“Bookstores told us they were tired of managing separate systems for their website and their store, or choosing platforms that only worked well for one channel,” added Ruman. “Our solution is simple: Shopify plus the Emersoft Books App. That’s it. One system manages everything whether you’re online-only, brick-and-mortar-only, or both. This is the only complete solution that actually works for bookstores operating in both worlds.”

The integration represents part of Emersoft’s commitment to supporting the independent bookstore community through both technology development and education. The company hosts regular community-driven webinars where booksellers share experiences and best practices while learning about new platform capabilities and industry developments.

Additional information about the Pubnet integration and other Emersoft services for independent bookstores is available online.

Hi3D Launches an AI-Powered Workflow for 3D Printing Creators

Published

on

HONGKONG, China, 27th Jun 2026 – As building-block collectibles, mecha figures, and designer toys gain popularity, more enthusiasts want to create original characters and custom mecha designs. Yet turning an idea into a physical model has long required Blender, CAD tools, mesh repair software, slicers, and advanced fabrication skills.

With its first-anniversary release, Hi3D is introducing an end-to-end AI manufacturing workflow for 3D printing that automates tasks once handled by professional modelers and experienced makers.

From a Prompt to an Original Mecha Design

Inside Hi3D, an original mecha project can begin with a simple text description.

Using a Blokees-style mecha as an example, users enter a character concept and visual description, and Hi3D’s Nano-Banana 2 image engine generates concept artwork optimized for 3D reconstruction. The system also supports consistent multi-view generation across the head, torso, limbs, armor, and weapon systems.

For collectors and hobbyists, this removes a major barrier to original character creation: professional illustration skills.

Manufacturing-Ready 3D Models in Two Minutes

Once the artwork is approved, Hi3D’s Sparc3D high-precision generation engine reconstructs a complete 3D model in approximately two minutes.

Unlike AI 3D tools focused mainly on visualization, Hi3D generates watertight meshes optimized for physical manufacturing. Structural integrity, topology continuity, and printability are handled automatically, reducing cleanup work that previously took hours to minutes.

2-minute generation of high-precision 3D mecha models

Automatic Part Splitting and Connector Generation

For large mecha models, print preparation can be harder than creation itself. Complex characters often must be split into components such as the head, torso, arms, legs, and weapons to fit desktop printer build volumes. Traditionally, this requires manual work inside Blender or CAD software.

Hi3D’s intelligent segmentation system automatically analyzes the model and separates it into logical printable components. The platform then generates matching connector structures, including mortise-and-tenon joints and ball-joint assemblies.

Combined with Hi3D’s Press-Fit Tolerance system, which calculates assembly clearances based on printer specifications, nozzle size, and material characteristics, printed parts can be assembled directly without extensive trial-and-error testing.

One-click disassembly with automatic addition of ball-and-socket joints

Smart Build Plate Optimization for Printing

After model preparation is complete, Hi3D automatically enters the print setup stage.

The platform’s smart build plate optimization system adjusts orientation and support strategies based on model geometry. Character figures prioritize surface quality, while mechanical components focus on reducing support material and shortening print time.

The final result is an enhanced 3MF file compatible with major slicing ecosystems, including Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer, Creality Print, and Elegoo Slicer, creating a seamless workflow from concept generation to print preparation.

Smart arrangement with two print layout modes

From Idea to Physical Manufacturing

Using this workflow, the time required to transform an original Blokees-style mecha from a text prompt into a printable 3MF file can be reduced to around five minutes.

Beyond efficiency, Hi3D aims to make original mecha creation accessible to a much wider audience. By automating modeling, part splitting, connector generation, and print preparation, workflows once reserved for professionals are becoming available to everyday makers, collectors, and hobbyists.

About Hi3D

Hi3D is an All-in-One AI 3D Maker Platform that connects AI-powered creation with physical manufacturing. The platform combines AI 3D generation, intelligent part splitting, connector generation, tolerance optimization, smart build plate layout, and one-click 3MF export into a single workflow.

As Hi3D celebrates its first anniversary, the company is also preparing to launch Hi3D 3.0, featuring the industry’s first 2048³ ultra-high-resolution AI 3D generation. Alongside limited-time subscription offers and creator competitions, early access to the new release will also be available.

Michael Sealy on Why Knowing the Full Business Is the Real Competitive Advantage in Commercial Real Estate

Published

on

Dallas-based commercial real estate executive Michael Sealy, Director of Corporate Strategy at Sealy & Company, explains how cross-functional experience shapes better strategic decisions in a complex market.

A Career Built Across Every Department

Dallas, TX, 26th June 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Most careers in commercial real estate follow a vertical path. A leasing broker becomes a senior broker. An investment analyst becomes a fund manager. Specialization is treated as the route to expertise. Michael Sealy, Director of Corporate Strategy at Sealy & Company in Dallas, Texas, took a different path.

Over more than two decades at Sealy & Company, Michael Sealy has worked in construction management, ground-up development, investment analysis, and capital markets before moving into his current strategic role. That horizontal movement was deliberate. He started his career as a leasing broker at Colliers International, gaining deal-level experience before joining the family-connected firm in late 2000 and beginning what would become a systematic education in every dimension of a full-service real estate platform.

Why Breadth Produces Better Strategy

In commercial real estate, strategy is only as strong as the operational understanding behind it. Decisions about which assets to pursue, how to structure capital, when to develop versus acquire, and how to position a firm within a changing market require more than financial modeling. They require an understanding of how buildings get built, how capital flows, and how each department’s decisions ripple across the organization.

Michael Sealy’s career arc was designed to develop exactly that kind of understanding. By the time he assumed oversight of the firm’s capital markets functions, he was not approaching financing decisions in isolation. He understood the construction and development context within which those financing decisions would have to perform.

The Strategic Value of Operational History

The transition from execution to strategy is one of the most consequential shifts in any real estate executive’s career. The risk, for many, is that it becomes a move away from operational reality rather than above it. Michawl Sealy’s multi-department career has positioned him to lead the firm’s corporate strategy function with a grounding that is difficult to replicate through analysis alone.

His current focus includes evaluating strategic opportunities, assessing capital alignment, and supporting enterprise-wide planning, work that draws on two decades of firsthand exposure to how those plans are actually executed at the operational level.

Community as a Parallel Commitment

Outside his work at Sealy & Company, Michael Sealy is active in the Dallas community. As a member of the Salesmanship Club of Dallas, he volunteers with the Momentous Institute and the Byron Nelson Golf Tournament. He is also committed to wildlife conservation, managing land specifically to support wildlife and waterfowl habitats.

These commitments reflect the same long-term thinking that characterizes his professional work. Both require patience, sustained investment, and a willingness to do work whose benefits may not materialize immediately.

About Michael Sealy

Michael Sealy is the Director of Corporate Strategy at Sealy & Company, a full-service commercial real estate firm based in Dallas, Texas. He has worked in commercial real estate for over two decades, with experience across construction, development, capital markets, and strategic planning. He can be found at michaelsealydallas.com.
