Hue, an AI-powered SaaS platform, announced their $4.5M seed round co-led by Fika Ventures and Underscore.
Hue is addressing the need for authentic and scalable user-generated video content, which is already trusted by 45 brands and retailers.
It enables eCommerce brands to compete with unrealistic content expectations that consumers have due to platforms like TikTok, Instagram, Snap, and more.
Hue allows consumers to filter video reviews based on their own personal attributes to make sure they are optimized for key areas of shopper interest.
The platform integrates user-generated video content directly onto eCommerce websites and across digital marketing channels.
Hue is solving a clear and critical short-term pain while also preparing them for a long-term future.
The Hue team is made up of three women of color who met at Harvard Business School with a shared passion for bringing authenticity and representation to eCommerce.
They are uniquely qualified to tackle the problem of representation for diverse skin tones, initially the number one pain point consumers have when shopping for makeup online.
Hue is helping to shape the future of scalable authenticity in eCommerce and redefine the online shopping experience.
Video plays an increasingly central role in eCommerce, and Hue is at the forefront of this transformation.
