Vendoo
Vendoo is a crosslisting and inventory-management platform for online resellers. From one dashboard, sellers post a single item to 10+ marketplaces - eBay, Poshmark, Etsy, Mercari, Depop, Facebook Marketplace, Grailed, Vinted and more - and the software handles the repetitive parts: detecting a sale and auto-delisting the item everywhere else, tracking inventory, sending offers, and calculating fees and profit. Founded in 2017 and part of Y Combinator's Winter 2022 batch, Vendoo says it serves more than 81,000 resellers who have created over 26 million listings on the platform.
