We’re building the next century of shopping — making it feel human, communal, and alive again. E-commerce has spent decades optimising for clicks, stripping away the trust, joy, and connection that once made shopping meaningful.
We’ve recently raised an $18M Series A from world-class investors to build the next era of commerce. Now, we’re hiring elite builders to make it happen.
