Dote, launched in 2014, positioned itself as a social shopping app targeting Gen Z consumers. It was known for its aggregation of various fashion brands and collaboration with influencers.
Dote provided a virtual mall experience, allowing users to shop from multiple retailers in a single transaction. The app partnered with around 450 influencers and raised $23 million in funding. However, it faced issues, including allegations of racism and operational problems, leading to a decline in its popularity and operations.
As of early 2024, the app seems to be inactive, with the website no longer functioning and the iOS app not working correctly.
