edit

OpenSky is a social shopping platform that helps consumers discover and buy great products that fulfill their interests in Food, Style & Beauty, Healthy Living, and Home & Design.

OpenSky brings together a passionate and growing community of Curators—celebrities, authors, stylists, chefs and other trendsetters all with distinctive perspective, expertise and passion that is unique to their individual personalities—who provide the ultimate hook-up on the best of what they eat, buy, wear, use and love everyday. By “following” Curators who share their passions, members of the site can customize their shopping experience based on their individual interests, as well as share their discoveries with friends.

Launched in April 2011, OpenSky was founded by John Caplan and Kevin Ambrosini.
