Offline
With an incredible Series B
funding and a partnership with
PayPal, universal shopping cart
platform Lyst plans to enter the
brick and mortar space by alerting
customers when they are near
products that they may like. e
idea is to create discovery in the
real world similar to that which
customers find by browsing the
internet.

Don’t Forget Your
Phone: Bringrr
A phone le behind, a lost
wallet... most of us have
been there before, and
wished there was an alarm
designed specifically to find
where you set the darn thing
down. Now there is, thanks
to Bringrr and Bringtags,
which accompany your
valuables and alert you
when you’re leaving without
them. Bringr works
specifically with your phone,
but the tags allow you to
create a communication
network with items like your
keys and wallet that will
sound when you’re looking
for them.
