About the company

Minimist is an award-winning AI startup on a mission to make secondhand the default choice. We are helping large second-hand sellers automate pricing and listing items (imagine the Red Cross wanting to put 100k items onto eBay/Depop).

We want to remove the digitalisation bottleneck preventing the circular economy from scaling, and our goal is to eliminate 100m tons of CO2e by 2035, using our neat mobile app that combines unique product identification tech with crosslisting functionality (instant listing on eBay, Depop etc).

To achieve our impact goals, we raised a pre-seed round from angel investors as well as a large impact fund.
