iTaggit is the Austin, Texas–based parent company of PriceAdvice, a service that helps consumers determine prices for used products listed on eBay, Amazon and Craigslist. PriceAdvice was launched in 2006 to educate consumers and help them make informed online or offline purchase decisions by providing timely pricing information. The company has raised $300K in funding to support its operations. iTaggit plans to use the proceeds to expand its sales and marketing team, invest in marketing and business development initiatives, and support working capital needs. The company recently added Ira Williams as President and COO and named Hong Bui as lead technology advisor, who joined iTaggit’s board. The funding round was reported in July 2011. iTaggit provides an online environment for cataloguing, managing, and sharing collections of items with an emphasis on preserving user and data privacy. The product includes community resources where users can connect with friends, like-minded collectors, and experts. Recent upgrades to the service include an Add Item Wizard, a Flickr-like picture uploader, an Amazon import tool, and an Item Publisher. The site positions itself for hobbyists and collectors, a relatively small vertical. iTaggit generates revenue from affiliate advertising programs such as eBay. The company completed a Series A financing round in August 2006.
