The Hunt Launches To Help You Find Items From Photos On Pinterest, Instagram And Others

the hunt-1I realize this is a completely random story to start a post with, but bear with me. A few weeks ago, I was searching for a Christmas outfit for my daughter--I found an adorable one on Pinterest but it didn't have a link to where I could buy the item. I searched Google, and a variety of ecommerce site but couldn't find the exact same one. This same problem actually takes place across a number of photo-sharing networks, such as Instagram, Twitter or Tumblr, where there isn't necessarily a link associated with an item in the picture. In fact, more than 90% of these photos do not contain links or buying information. One newly launched startup, The Hunt, is aiming to solve this pain point.
