Founders Uma Mahesh, Ajith Nayar and Pramod Solanky are seen pitching Gifto – a retail commerce App that enables transactions through a mobile phone camera photo, using Computer Vision technology.
This young startup aims to “usher in a new genre of retail commerce technology”. They hope to bridge the offline-online commerce space through visual discovery and enabling instant impulse purchases.
All a user needs to do is to take a photo of the item (to buy or gift), this automatically activates a visual discovery experience and prods users towards a sale. Their first approach is a B2B one.
