Hi Product Hunt 👋 While today most of us understand the financial and environmental benefits of resale, it still takes too much time and energy to find the pre-loved items we want. Beni solves this problem for the first time, making the secondhand shopping experience frictionless. Over the past year, we’ve been hard at work building the beta and have over 2k current users testing out the product – and now we’re ready to spread the word to the Product Hunt community! What is Beni? We’re a browser plug-in that scours the internet and finds you the best secondhand swaps while you’re shopping online. We partner with 25+ leading resale marketplaces (eBay, The RealReal, Vestiaire Collective, Grailed, Kidizen, etc.) and show you their best listings in one place – sometimes this will be an exact match to what you were looking at and sometimes it will be a similar item that might also meet your needs. Today, we’re coming out of beta and launching Beni 2.0 in the US! We’ve been making major updates to our product functionality, including: 🏆50M+ pre-loved items in our database: We work directly with the leading resale platforms to get direct access to their constantly evolving product feeds. This means we’ve created the largest aggregated database of online resale listings – making it easier for us to show you the most relevant secondhand options available. Our partners include The RealReal, Vestiaire Collective, Grailed, GOAT, eBay, Kidizen, Helpsy, Rent The Runway, The Luxury Closet, and many more! 👉 Features to help you find the best fit: - Filter by size, color, brand, and resale platform - Create your own size profile - Save your favorite items - Sort by price and relevancy - Save your search & get alerted when new items pop up (coming soon) 💻📱Beni is available on: - Chrome Desktop (via Chrome Web Store) - Safari Desktop (via App Store) - Safari Mobile Extension (via App Store) - Brave (if you're into that kind of thing) 🌎 About us: We're a fully remote team spread across the US. We're passionate about the circular economy and focused on building tools that help transform the norms of consumption so that buying ‘new’ is not longer the default. 🤝 Beni is for everyone and we are building this together with you. What we need from you?? FEEDBACK! We’re all about progress over perfection so try it out and let us know what you think — the good will keep us energized and the bad will help us move forward faster. Both are very much appreciated! And on that note, if you like your experience, comment below!

Is Beni actively adding new stores to their partner list?
Kate Sanner
@alex_ugolini yes! We support nearly 1000 brand sites and it only takes a few minutes to add a new one so we're really just limited by knowing what brands people want. If you have one we should add, let us know!

Super cool product -- is it only available on desktop?
Sarah Pinner
@benbeingbin Thank you! Beni is also available on iOs Safari! You can download the extension from the app store. From there you simply add it as an extension on your mobile Safari and it works the same as on desktop.

You can only filter beni results by US sizing (I think, correct me if I'm wrong!) - if I want to buy something from a brand with European sizing (shoes, for example), will the filters be able to convert my US size to my European size?
Sarah Pinner
@grishdz Thank you for your question! Yes you are correct, currently the filters are all normalized into US sizes. That said, if you filter for your preferred US size, Beni will still surface any secondhand alternative that is listed with other sizing. For example, if you set a filter for shoe size US 8, we will surface any relevant secondhand alternatives that either have a US Size 8 or equivalent, such as an EU 39. A key tip is to set you preferred sizes in your profile (far right option on the bottom menu in the extension). This way the options are always in your sizes! Hope this helps - lmk if it's not clear!
Grisel Hernandez
@sarah_beni Amazing! Happy to hear it shows equivalents :) hoping to find the used Margiela boots of my dreams with Beni!
