Questions

Answers to the questions that matter.

We've kept this list short and strategic — the questions our earliest members and partners actually ask. Write to us.

01The platform

Cartly is an AI-powered social commerce platform that transforms the way people discover, save, compare, and buy products online.

Today, people discover products on one app, search for them on another, compare prices across multiple websites, save screenshots in their gallery, ask friends for opinions, and finally purchase from a retailer. Cartly brings that entire journey into one seamless experience.

Whether a product appears in a Reel, short video, photo, livestream, social post, screenshot, camera view, website, or even a simple text or voice description, Cartly can identify it, help you compare trusted sellers, virtually try it on or preview it in your space, organize it into collections, and purchase it—all without leaving the experience.

Unlike traditional social media, Cartly is built around products and discovery rather than endless scrolling. Unlike traditional e-commerce, it is built around inspiration, creators, communities, and real-world content instead of search bars and product catalogs.

Creators can automatically monetize the products featured in their content, businesses can showcase their products where discovery naturally happens, and shoppers can move from inspiration to purchase without switching between multiple apps.

Cartly isn't simply combining social media and e-commerce—it is creating a new generation of platform where discovery, community, AI, and commerce work together in one intelligent ecosystem.

In short: Cartly is building the future of social commerce, where anything you discover can instantly become something you understand, organize, compare, share, and own.

Cartly is for customers who have stopped enjoying the search. People who value provenance, quality, and a clear point of view — and who want a platform that does the editing for them.

Marketplaces optimize for breadth. Cartly optimizes for the right object — vetted, annotated, and presented in context. We index what we'd be proud to sell, and remove the rest.

02Launch & access

Cartly is in private beta throughout 2026. Members are invited in waves. A public introduction is planned for 2027.

Reserve your place on the waitlist. We read every signup, and invitations are issued in the order they were received.

Yes. Native iOS and Android experiences are on the roadmap, scheduled alongside the public introduction. The web platform launches first.

Eventually — and carefully. A developer surface is on the roadmap but will not open until the core platform stands on its own. Access will be invitation-only.

03Privacy & trust

Privacy is structural, not a setting. We don't run behavioral advertising, we don't import third-party tracking, and we collect only what we need to deliver the experience. You can erase your account in a single action.

No. Your data is never sold, shared, or syndicated to advertising networks. This is not a promise we may revise.

04Partners & creators

Partnerships are direct and selective. Write to partners@cartly.com with a brief on your catalog and we'll respond personally.

Yes. Cartly offers creators a first-class surface to publish curated collections with annotation and direct routes to acquisition. See the For Creators page.
