Today, we’re excited to announce Curio’s $3.7M Seed investment led by Alexis Ohanian & Katelin Holloway at 776 , with participation from Gary Vee, Cozomo de’ Medici, JD Kanani (Polygon CEO), Devin Finzer (Opensea CEO), OrangeDAO, Coinbase Ventures, Naval Ravikant, Leore Avidar (Alt), Amitt Mahajan (Rarebits), Andrew Jiang (Curated), Hunter Horsley (Bitwise), and a handful of others. Co-founded by Chrys Bader and Sean Dadashi in September 2021, Curio was born from a desire to get the NFT insights we wanted, faster and more intuitively. Switching between tabs to get information from different tools felt inefficient, and the UX often fell short of our expectations. Last September, we set out to create a powerful multi-tool that is simple to understand, a joy to use, and ultimately saves us all time. Since then, we’ve grown a wonderful community of beta testers. So far, over 1,000 pioneers have joined us in testing and building Curio. With their continuous invaluable feedback, we continue to improve every day. We’re grateful for the support we’ve received from our community and the relationships we’ve developed along the way. Today, we’re letting more people in to test-drive Curio. All you need to do is follow us on Twitter and connect your wallet to get early access today . Meet Curio Genesis Our product vision is simple: We want you to give you time back to spend on the other things you love. We hope to do this by making the fastest, most beautiful and robust NFT intelligence tool in the market. Our most common piece of feedback is the speed and ease of use, and that’s only going to improve with Curio Genesis. Curio’s advanced collection browser One of the key challenges shared by analytics tools today, second to poor UX, is information overload. There’s a lot of data thrown at us, and we need to contextualize it and try to understand what is and isn’t relevant. It takes a good amount of time and effort to collect and trade NFTs, and we want to build features that will help you save time and make better decisions. Curio Genesis plans to solve this problem by doubling down on features that allow users to build their own view of the NFT market; features like alerts, watchlists, personalized dashboards, and the ability to follow collections, wallets, and community members. We believe that by allowing you to curate what you’re interested in, we can deliver a more relevant experience that’s unique to you. Learn faster. Act faster. Live more.
