Hartlino is a sustainable luxury fashion brand, that brings innovative design and top-shelf quality at accessible prices to fashion-conscious customers. Our vision is to become a pillar in the European luxury clothing industry, specifically within comfort and aesthetics. We are addressing the challenge of the limited availability of high-end luxury fashion at an accessible price range in the market. The problem affects fashion-conscious individuals who want to find top-quality clothing that doesn't compromise on design and affordability. Our team is fully committed to establishing a formidable presence in the luxury fashion market. We place utmost importance on cutting-edge design and exceptional craftsmanship to produce sophisticated and practical fashion items.

The motivation to quit our day jobs and pursue this entrepreneurial venture stemmed from a shared passion for fashion, sustainability, and a belief that top-quality clothing should be more accessible to all. We are driven by the desire to contribute to a more sustainable fashion industry and provide customers with a viable alternative that aligns with their values.

Wepost

Short ------ Wepost makes marketing your superpower. We are developing the greatest platform for marketing. We combine artificial intelligence with design to provide high-quality creatives for scale-up companies. Each creative is tailored every individual social media platform based on the company's strategy and publishing plan. Long ----- Problem: The problem is that the vast majority of companies do not know how to use social media marketing strategically or effectively. This leads to them either; 1) spending too much money on paid advertising to reach their target audience, or 2) not having a clear strategy behind their marketing, resulting in low quality content. In the worst cases, they do both. This leads to low visibility and ultimately loss of customers and revenue. In fact, 14% of startups fail as a result of poor marketing. In addition, those who work in marketing experience that daily content production for social media is a repetitive and boring job. They themselves feel that they are overworked, and social media often fall far down the priority list. Solution: Our solution is to use artificial intelligence (AI) to turn marketing into a company's superpower. We create a platform that helps companies create a strategic marketing plan, and then automatically generates the content using AI. The content is adapted to their brand and segment, which makes the software unique on the market. In addition, the service is priced as a software, where there is a public fixed monthly subscription to the content production, something similar services from agencies do not offer today. The focus on software development also makes the service highly scalable, and with our team it is only a matter of time before it is developed.
