- Curacity
Participated · Seed · Oct 2015
Curacity provides a white-label travel booking framework that lets media brands pair curated content with a dedicated booking portal instead of building complex booking systems themselves. The company acquired technology assets from members-only hotel startup WantMeGetMe to help build its backend. Its first partner is Surface Magazine, where Curacity developed a searchable site and booking portal called Surface Hotels that curates the 1,000 top design hotels. Curacity targets the top 10–20% of the market, focusing on travelers seeking distinctive, design-forward properties rather than bargain pricing. In the coming months the company plans to expand through partnerships to launch a food-focused travel site and a business-travel site. Founder Michael Keriakos, an EveryDay Health cofounder, is leading the product and partnership strategy.
- SoapBox
