The future of e-commerce needs not only to be social but also authentic. Discovering new products and brands digitally needs to be as human as genuine word-of-mouth recommendations. At Tailorie we are building a solution that accomplishes just that — we are focused on connecting rather than selling – tailored introductions rather than targeted ads. We empower consumers to add their human voice to big data while providing brands the tools to truly understand them. Our innovative solution levels the playing field in digital advertising and data analytics for emerging businesses and guides consumers to discover brands and products that are uniquely relevant to what and who is important to them…according to them.
