Today, Chicago-based iMedia Network, Inc launched Grabio, a free application on the iTunes App Store.
Grabio is a location-based marketplace, focused on connecting buyers and sellers of both goods and services in their local community. The exchange of information is performed from the convenience of a smartphone in a simple yet innovative way.
The intuitive and visual location experience of Grabio allows people to sell and discover items available around them. Neighbors and community visitors may search Grabio listings to view what people nearby are selling or interested in purchasing. Grabio allows a seller to take a photo of an item, describe the item or service, assign a price and then post the ad in a few simple steps.
Grabio changes the way people search for and exchange goods and services by adding elements of mobility, timeliness and social user experience to location-based classifieds. For example, instead of searching for rentals on a website, collecting addresses, and then visiting the site, one may walk or drive through a city/neighborhood using Grabio to ?see? apartments within a short distance, and contact the owner/management company with the push of a button.
Buying or selling tickets right before a game or concert is simplified with Grabio. Launch Grabio at the ball park or amphitheatre and explore all the tickets listings nearby. Simply send a message to the seller and connect in person within minutes.
Additionally, Grabio aims to innovate how students share and exchange textbooks. While on campus, Grabio enables students to ?see? what their peers have to sell, swap, and borrow. Grabio only displays items nearby, thus allowing students on the same or surrounding campuses to connect in person and complete the transaction quickly.
?Marketplaces and classifieds are a part of our life already, but until recently, the mobility aspect was missing from the interaction between buyers and sellers,? said Horatiu Boeriu, co-founder & CEO. ?The process of buying or selling an item can be cumbersome and frustrating, but with Grabio nearby buyers and sellers can connect within minutes. The social experience is enhanced as well, along with the fun aspect of constantly browsing the local marketplace and neighborhood for cool things.?
