O que Miniswap faz

Miniswap a marketplace for complex hobbies, starting with Warhammer. In hobbies as complex as Warhammer, finding what you want on general marketplaces is a huge pain. Filters don't work, free-form listings mean that products are regularly misidentified, and piles of counterfeit junk crowd search results. Miniswap saves hobbyists from this chaos with its catalogue of more than 20,000 unique miniatures. Sellers match their listings against Miniswap's catalogue giving buyers more information and structure as they shop. The global market for tabletop games is estimated to be worth $20B in 2025 and Warhammer alone is projected to grow to $3B by 2030. By capturing the market in this untapped niche, Miniswap is strongly positioned to bringing greater transparency, simplicity, and connectivity into adjacent verticals. Miniswap's founding team merges deep domain knowledge with elite programming expertise and years of experience in business consulting and startups. Co-founders Zak and Will met while studying together at Cambridge, bonded over their love of Warhammer and early modern history. They have been best friends ever since.

The Marketplace for Complex Hobbies

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

We built a marketplace tailored to complex hobbies, starting with Warhammer. Sellers list miniatures by matching against our curated catalogue of over 20,000 unique items, letting buyers quickly find what they want without wading through incorrect or counterfeit listings. Our platform organizes and cleans up the clutter common on general marketplaces.

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

We live in San Francisco, CA, and plan to keep the company based here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco has the right mix of technical talent and proximity to early adopter gamers who love complex table-top hobbies like Warhammer. It's where we live and can best build and iterate quickly.
