Just raised small capital to speed things up => we're hiring - design and marketing (DM or email - sid @ shopwithaira .com)
We're building your personal shopping AI that is loyal to your wallet, fluent in your taste, and amplified by community that helps you earn by discovering deals or shopping for others.
Online shopping starts as fun discovery… until it turns into digital noise. You forget what mattered. Meanwhile, brands track every click and retarget you with precision (which, to be fair, has its perks).
Our first exploration is a voice-first immersive shopping experience that is powered by AI that remembers what you do, learns your taste, and shops with you.
We're not trying to automate shopping :). But instead focused on making shopping even more fun by skipping the tedious stuff, giving you confidence you're getting the best deal, and helping you choose what actually fits your taste not someone else algorithm.

Wrapping up a gratifying year building at @whop .
AI is having these magical moments where the space between models and interfaces feels wide open to create value. So I’m stepping out to explore building, starting with shopping space.
I can barely keep track of my own shopping list, meanwhile, brands track everything I do and target me with precision.
So what if your private AI remembered what you cared about without any effort? What if you could simply talk to it, have it shop with you / for you, and even earn when you help others save or leverage your taste?
That’s the thesis.

Deep respect to @cultured — for being a no-BS leader and a taste-driven builder.
If you shop online and want to test what we’re building, I’ll pay you $5 for 15 minutes of your feedback. calendly.com/sid-banothu/

@sidbanothu Bounties that go up slowly over time until someone claims them.
Example: tattoo sharpshooters logo on your thigh, bounty starts at $1 and goes up until someone decides it’s worth

@RRKubaRR on it. How do you feel about allow members to subscribe to all future events?

@sidbanothu Make the option on the events tab for the link to be visible further away from the live time, that way people can add them to their calendars

@Jacobsklug Hear you - increased focus now so expect few very simple features that get very high revenue unlock for creators.

@sidbanothu u guys are trying to be everything, all at once. the best product focus on one use-case imo.
feedback ive also heard is too many things are being added/changes (your shipping too much too fast lol) and its confusing users
