Onton

About

Onton is a next-generation search and discovery engine that is transforming how people shop online. We are a tight-knit San Francisco-based team building the future of shopping by combining AI-powered search with intuitive interior design tools. Our platform allows users to search for home decor products using natural language or images, functioning as an AI shopping assistant that scours across 100+ retailers instantly to find exactly what users are looking for. What sets Onton apart is our proprietary neurosymbolic AI agent that learns more about the world with every search, dramatically increasing search accuracy and opening up new product categories. We recently built a custom graph engine that is 700x faster on natural language queries than RedisGraph, enabling seamless multimodal search capabilities where users can combine text and image queries. Our flagship tool, Onton Imagine, lets users transform their living spaces using AI interior design, generating photo-realistic room designs with shoppable product links integrated directly into the results. Since launching publicly in late 2023, we have grown exponentially to guide millions of users to their perfect products, having raised over $10M in funding from top-tier VCs and industry veterans from Google, Amazon, OpenAI, and more.
