| Revive was born to take on a supply chain challenge that every brand faces: What should we do with slightly imperfect returns, store try-ons, display samples, or just plain old excess inventory?Without actionable data, brands only have a few (not ideal) options: costly recycling - difficult when the materials are not built to be recycled easily;donations - also difficult since donation centers cannot process that much volume; and as the last resort, incineration or destruction of the goods. Current options offer no financial recovery, and brands expect to lose the majority of asset value for deadstock.Revive is a first-in-line solution. Before recycling or donating, let our AI-powered platform show the recovered value potential of this inventory. Let us help you make a decision of whether these small damages are worth cleaning and/or repairing to be sold. Based on your decision, Revive will help realize the maximum value of this neglected inventory. | Pre-Seed / Sep 01, 2018 | ||
