Company mission

To help customers find unforgettable gifts.

Our take

With the e-commmerce industry growing massively in recent years, consumers are now buying more and more items online, including gifts and presents for loved ones. Brands are increasingly investing in more personalised experiences for buyers, and Abstract was founded to help people find the perfect presents for loved ones, friends, or themselves.

After telling Abstract's curators some information about who you're buying for, they match them with the ideal, personalised gift to help create unforgettable moments. With over 500 brands on the site, the company is able to offer a wide range of options.

Most new competitors aren't focusing enough on personalised customer experience, which is a key advantage for online businesses like Abstract. Backed by Techstars, Abstract is expanding into this space and aiming to expand its selection of curated gifts in the future in order to help more people find the perfect gifts.
