We make selling easier than buying. Just send us photos. We handle the rest. We research your product, find markets for them, negotiate with buyers, answer questions, and handle delivery/pickup.
Hi everyone! My name is Veniamin and I’m one of the co-founders of Rid.
Selling your stuff sucks. You need to find the right marketplace, then list it, negotiate with buyers, and handle pick up or packaging.
At Rid we make selling easier than buying. You just text us a few photos and answer a couple questions then we will handle the rest.
A lot of us have stuff to sell but are too busy (or lazy) to actually sell it. We hope that Rid makes it so simple to sell stuff that we no longer have an excuse to not sell our stuff.
I always put off selling unused stuff—this removes all friction. How do you ensure fair pricing and avoid lowball offers?
Loved how co-founder Veniamin put it: ‘Selling your stuff sucks… Rid makes it so simple we no longer have an excuse.’ Amen to that 😂 Curious—what commission range should we expect? And how does messaging/shipping work once a match is found? Loving the smooth UX so far!
This is downright brilliant—just text a photo, and Rid does all the heavy lifting? From researching your item to finding buyers and even arranging the pickup, it streamlines every frustrating step. Especially great for busy folks who have things to sell but never get around to listing them. Loving the YC backing, too!
I love the "back to basic but make it the best in the niche" concept. Way to go post-genAI for everything
How does it work? I'm hitting the "Get Rid of something" button, and nothing happens.
Congrats team on the launch! This is an awesome idea - selling things online is so painful, so there's a huge market for this product.
Just a heads up - the "Sell" and "Get Rid of something" buttons don't work on my Windows laptop because it can't handle the imessage scheme. Maybe you could catch that error and show alternative instructions instead?
if it can handle messaging and shipping, that’s a huge chunk of work off my plate.
Unused and useless things are going to be useful again. Such an Innovative idea!
congrats team for the launch! is it like an end to end service for merchat or they can use some tools themselves?
Rid.me makes selling old stuff as easy as texting a friend snap a pic, send the text, and they do the rest.
