Entrupy is giving luxury shoppers the gift of authenticity.
An app that was designed to sniff out counterfeit designer bags - meet Entrupy. The New York-based startup has created an authenticity app to help you ensure you’re not purchasing a knock off.
If you’re a luxury handbag connoisseur, buying either new or secondhand then grab your device and download this app. Designed for both iOS and Android the app works seamlessly with your device camera.
Entrupy comes with a microscopic camera that magnifies the object about 260 times, and can detect traits or features that often are unseen to the human eye. Snap an image of the latest Gucci , Louis Vuitton or Balenciaga you’re currently coveting and be alerted as to whether your next buy is legit or a scam.
Entrupy was made possible with backing by The Fifth Collection — Singapore’s online retailer for vintage luxury fashion and accessories. The Fifth Collection helped to develop the system’s features. Knowing first hand what to look for when purchasing preowned or new luxury handbags, the accuracy of the app is uncanny and improving every day as more users discover its powers.
Bringing together fashion and technology this app is definitely on our radar as the first app of its kind. Not a free app, you can select from multiple plans starting at $99.
