Twitter Answer

When it comes to shopping, finding the right product out of the millions available is always a tough ask as it consumes enormous time and is equally frustrating. We often ask our friends to recommend where we might find the right thing with favorable offers. Well you don’t have to call your friends anymore as IMshopping comes out making waves. The site is powered by humans, meaning that you get recommendations from knowledgeable shopping guides who respond to your shopping related queries with recommendations most suitable to your needs. The experience is like talking to a real person in a shop who has the right information to provide you with. Plus it also offers the same for Twitter. Meaning that you can send your message to @imshopping and you get an informative reply in a short time. The idea to use Twitter makes it pretty quick and would definitely make things easier for the countless shoppers. The launch comes with the announcement of the startup closing its Series A round with a healthy $4.7 million.

Update: The site is not yet up.
