The Challenge
The pandemic propelled global e-commerce forward while also exposing the shortcomings of the online customer experience when compared to traditional in-person shopping.
With the ubiquity of social media and record-high online content consumption, it appears that the future of e-commerce will inevitably become more social, seamless, and, of course, more enjoyable. However, the exact nature of this transformative shift remains uncertain.
Here's what we did
Through our technical expertise, we laid the foundation for creators and brands to seamlessly unite, facilitating a harmonious blend of curation and inspiration. The outcome? A unique destination for discovery, featuring more of the newest selections thoughtfully curated by creators, all underpinned by an optimal tech stack and solid codebase.
Features
A strong emphasis on user-friendliness resulted in a user experience that’s both smooth and intuitive, guaranteeing that even individuals new to the system can effortlessly navigate it.
The engineering initiatives and user-centered attributes not only showcase technical excellence but also underscore a commitment to making the product accessible and beneficial to a wider user base.

Design System
Our UI design approach was grounded in a thoughtful balance where we considered the fusion of form and function.
We curated two distinct typefaces, each chosen for its unique qualities, and seamlessly combined them to create a cohesive aesthetic. Our design choices stem from comprehensive research within our industry, ensuring a connection to established standards while also infusing customized elements that reflect the refined essence of the brand.
Technologies
The product is built on a robust and modern tech stack that combines cutting-edge technologies to deliver a seamless user experience.
We leverage a combination of frameworks, microservices architecture, and cloud infrastructure to ensure scalability, performance, and flexibility in our development process.

CEO Maddie Raedts told TechCrunch: “For the first time, there is a platform that aligns all incentives and is the missing piece of the puzzle that hasn’t been there before.”
