Overview
Glance provides a unique digital experience by transforming the way users interact with their smartphones. Its main product, the Glance Lock Screen, allows users to access personalized content, products, and services directly from their lock screens, eliminating the need to search for apps. This is made possible through AI-powered personalization that curates content in an engaging format. Additionally, Glance operates Roposo, a platform that combines live entertainment with shopping, enabling users to purchase products while engaging with creators in real-time. What sets Glance apart from its competitors is its focus on delivering a seamless internet experience on the lock screen and its integration of live commerce through Roposo. The company's goal is to redefine digital consumption and empower creators in the commerce space.
