Our take
Easol was founded in 2017 by husband and wife team Ben and Lisa Simpson with the intention of becoming the world's first all-in-one SaaS platform for experience commerce. The company aims to bring vital experience commerce tools all into one synchronised place.
Easol empowers entrepreneurs by removing the need to outsource their business to traditional e-commerce platforms, booking platforms or experience marketplaces such as Airbnb. This appeals directly to bosses looking to maintain full ownership of their business, and to streamline the labour-intensive and hands-on booking and tracking processes.
The company is taking advantage of the growing experience market, as more and more businesses are founded to provide the rising demand for unforgettable experiences. After a difficult few years, the experience market is set to boom, and Easol has enjoyed a $30 million funding round in 2024, which will be used to invest in their US presence off the back of opening a hub in New York.
