Mainis

Mainis is a South Korean startup that operates Charan.ai, a resale fashion app. The company manages the entire resale process, which includes collecting the items, inspecting them for authenticity, cleaning, and listing the products on the app. This end-to-end service differentiates Charan.ai from other C2C marketplaces by ensuring the quality and authenticity of the items sold.

The platform primarily targets consumers looking for affordable, branded fashion items. The business model is based on consignment, where Charan.ai takes a commission on the sales made through its platform. The company has a strong focus on customer experience, aiming to provide a "treasure hunt" for its users, with a constantly updated inventory of unique items.

Charan.ai has successfully raised funding from various investors, indicating confidence in its business model and growth potential. The company is expanding its services and aims to become a multi-category resale platform in the future.
