About
Tilt is a London-based live-auction commerce app founded in 2021 by Abhi Thanendran and Neil Shah, two early employees of Revolut 12. The platform enables sellers to broadcast live video streams to buyers, using AI tools — including its “Snap” feature that creates a product listing from video in under a second — to power listing automation, real-time pricing, natural-language search, and content repurposing 12. The company charges buyers (not sellers), is live across the UK, Italy, Spain, and Poland, and says it has grown 8x since its 2024 Series A 23. On June 2, 2026, Tilt announced a $26 million round with Vinted Ventures joining as a new investor alongside existing backers TQ Ventures, Balderton Capital, Earlybird, and Seedcamp, bringing total funding to more than $50 million 123.
