Rush is a Sofia-based startup that provides shipment-tracking software for Shopify merchants, helping brands keep customers updated on parcel status and improve post-purchase experiences. Its platform integrates with Shopify to notify buyers about deliveries and reduce churn caused by poor post-purchase communication. The company plans to use new funding to expand its development and support teams and to pursue partnerships with agencies, additional technology platforms and warehousing solutions. CEO and co-founder is Kiril Kirilov; the article also (jokingly) lists Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson and Neil Peart among co-founders. Financially, Rush raised a €2.5 million seed round and has now raised a total of €2.8 million to date. Rush, founded in 2019 by Kiril Kirilov and Slav Stankov, builds a platform that converts shipment tracking pages into post-purchase communication and marketing channels for e-stores. Its core product supports Shopify merchants by automating post-sale messaging, reducing endless email chains and addressing shipping delays and customer miscommunication. The solution is positioned to help merchants recover from COVID-19 impacts by boosting customer satisfaction and repeat purchases. The company reports more than 500 customers and says it is continuing monthly customer growth. Customers have given very positive reviews and reported significant increases in items sold. With recent financing, Rush plans to expand its team to around 20 people and scale its product adoption.
