Uncovet
a new curated e-commerce shopping site that sends users
high-style on-trend fashion and home products daily,
today announces its launch out of beta. The company is
developed by technology studio
Science Inc.,
the team behind other recent successful ecommerce
companies like
Wittlebee
and
DollarShaveClub.
Uncovet is mapping shopper's style graph,
which analyzes a number of data points to deliver deeper
discounts and tailored shopping recommendations to
users. By factoring customer's personal preferences to
generate customized product recommendations, Uncovet
identifies which friends users should share their
shopping finds with in order to increase their
discounts. The more users share, the more money they
save.
Uncovet is style-driven site that seeks
to accurately forecast trends and deliver
recommendations for individual users every day. Uncovet
locates the most coveted collection of items from
up-and-coming designers, select high-profile brands and
exclusive vintage finds to procure a highly curated list
of on-trend, unique and rare products at prices that
have been negotiated down — then delivers them to
members via their daily email.
Founded by digital fashion globetrotter
Heather Lipner, Uncovet is designed to help shoppers
easily find the most sought after fashion-forward goods
on the web. Through research and technology, Uncovet's
mission is to deliver items that members already want,
but typically spend hours hunting down on the web each
week. Uncovet offers these items at discounted rates,
leveraging social pricing to offer steeper discounts for
users who influence their friends.
"Design and technology is Uncovet's sweet
spot, and we use both to solve people's common shopping
dilemmas – spending excessive amounts of time and money
to surface unique products that fit their style," said
Heather Lipner, co-founder of Uncovet. "As more and
more products are created and accessible because of the
Web, the challenges in finding what you want become more
and more difficult. Delivering solid curation with
intelligence gets people exactly what they want,
faster."
Focusing beyond fashion to include niche
home goods and unique objects, Uncovet helps users find
the things they want—and in return, members offer live
feedback and share with friends via social media.
With Uncovet's Inner Circle Benefits, Uncovet provides
its fans even better deals and special bonuses when they
share across Pinterest, Svpply, Twitter and other
networks. Uncovet's team then fine tunes their curation
techniques to include user feedback as well as social
data-feeds to determine what's trending at the moment.
The result is an accurate gauge on what the community
prefers.
"Few people know more about unearthing
the hottest fashion and home finds and trends on the web
than Heather. Everyday Uncovet identifies unique
products — from high-end brands, vintage finds and
up-and-coming designers — the digital equivalent of
scouring swank boutiques, flea markets and globe
trotting for new trends all while bargaining deals for
their members. Uncovet creates the perfect end-to-end
shopping experience and delivers it directly to users so
they can easily purchase the new obsession," said
Science Inc. founder and former MySpace CEO Michael
Jones.
