Baqend develops Speed Kit, a SaaS plugin solution to accelerate e-commerce websites by more than 50% within 2 days. Baqend is a research spin-off from the University of Hamburg on the mission of building a web without loading times. The founders pioneered a novel approach to speed up the delivery of dynamic data. Speed Kit bundles years of this research in a plugin for large-scale e-commerce and brand websites, that is easily implemented by just a line of JavaScript code.

Today, some of the leading European e-commerce players like Decathlon, Galeria, and BMW already rely on Speed Kit to improve their conversion rates, user experience, and SEO ranking. Since the product’s speed uplift is cleanly proven by statistically sound A/B-tests, Baqend is one of the fastest-growing SaaS companies in Germany.

A website acceleration software that uses service workers and dynamic caching to improve website performance by caching both static and dynamic content, optimizing browser caching, and accelerating third-party assets.

Caches not only static files but also dynamic resources like APIs or HTML, ensuring personalized content is delivered quickly.

Utilizes expiration-based browser caching within the user's device to deliver content faster than traditional CDNs.

Automatically optimizes images by transcoding them to WebP format and adjusting compression levels to reduce file size without quality loss.

Fetches third-party assets through a fast HTTP/3 connection to Speed Kit’s infrastructure, improving load times for external resources.

Anticipates user navigation and preloads essential content and pages to ensure they are ready when users click.
