HelloShopper (formerly known as Scratch) is an e-commerce service that helps consumers give great gifts (to someone else or to treat themselves!). Unless you know exactly what you’re looking for, finding a great product online can be a challenge. We believe you shouldn’t have to settle for whatever shows up on the first page of search results, so we’re building a service that makes giving great gifts, from unique brands, as easy as sending a text message. Featured as Apple’s top ‘Best New App’ in February 2016, our chat-based mobile and web app connects customers with a network of gift shoppers, on-demand, from any device. We supercharge our shoppers with the extensive data we’ve accumulated through thousands of customer interactions, which helps us send on-target recommendations quickly, every time. Customers simply tell us who they are shopping for and answer a couple questions about their interests. Within a few hours, our shoppers send them great recommendations from unique brands. It’s completely free and customers can buy right from us with confidence, since every purchase is backed by our best price guarantee. Founded in August 2014, we've raised $3.6M so far from top-tier VCs Bessemer Venture Partners, NextView Ventures, Red Swan and Aspiration Growth. Our team includes alums from TripAdvisor, Microsoft, Wayfair, RunKeeper, CustomMade and Karmaloop.
