Haystack Search

Haystack is the online product search, purchasing, and engagement platform for physical stores, bringing the convenience of e-commerce to a traditionally offline industry and making supporting your local stores as easy as shopping on Amazon. For retailers, Haystack is the online inventory platform powering smarter inventory decisions, direct customer engagement, and cost-effective and expansive on-demand product pickup and delivery. Haystack's beta leverages real-time inventory feeds, proprietary algorithms, shopper-generated feedback, and artificial intelligence to include inventory for all stores in the US, even those without digital footprints or electronic inventory systems. Haystack is founded by Benjamin Dean, Wharton MBA and Chief Analyst of the presidential-award-winning data startup in Michael Bloomberg's NYC Mayor's Office, who when caught in the rain one day realized he couldn't find an umbrella.
