Cosa fa Greentoe

Greentoe is a next generation e-commerce marketplace that enables consumers to set the price for the products they want to buy. Created to change the way people shop, Greentoe shakes up the traditional retail model by putting consumers in the driver's seat. They make an offer on a product and the site connects them to the retailers who are willing to accept the offer. The site benefits both consumers and retailers - shoppers can buy products at the lowest price available while retailers reduce inventory and acquire new customers.

Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Name Your Price for products

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built Greentoe, an e-commerce marketplace where shoppers set the price they want to pay for consumer electronics. Instead of browsing fixed prices, users make offers on products, and we connect those offers with retailers willing to accept them. This flips the traditional retail model, letting consumers drive price discovery and giving retailers a channel to move inventory and reach new customers.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live and work in New York City and plan to base the company here after YC as well.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We are based in New York because it's home, and it puts us close to a large consumer electronics market and retailers. YC is remote-friendly, so we don't need to move specifically for the program.
