Problem
Traditional online shopping experiences often lack the dynamic engagement and real-time interaction found in physical retail environments. Many users find it difficult to assess product quality and authenticity remotely, leading to uncertainty and dissatisfaction with purchases.
Solution
Tilt is a mobile-first community marketplace that uses live streaming to create an interactive shopping experience focused on designer and vintage fashion. The platform enables sellers to host live auctions, giveaways, and product drops, allowing buyers to engage directly through real-time video and chat. This approach fosters a sense of community and provides immediate answers to questions about fit, condition, and styling. Tilt's integrated payment system and buyer protection policy aim to ensure secure transactions and build trust between buyers and sellers.
Target Audience
Tilt primarily targets fashion-conscious consumers, particularly Gen Z and millennials, who are interested in designer, vintage, and streetwear apparel, as well as resellers looking to connect with a community of engaged buyers.
