Reseat is an award-winning startup that reduces carbon footprint. It finds a new home for office furniture on a truly massive scale.

As seen on

Marketplace for pre-owned products

We built a public platform that connects sellers, dealers, and buyers looking for all sorts of office supplies. It features convenient search filters, a quick checkout, and flexible delivery options.

Users can order additional services for designing a new office space for an extra fee. They include refurbishment planning and project management.

Reseat ID for managing a circular office economy

Inventory management has always been a pain for large enterprises. To solve this problem, each item bought via the marketplace gets a unique ID. This makes it easy to resell the item later on.

The tool allows companies to plan the entire furniture lifecycle. They can upload orders, track specification logistics, and manage record-keeping across multiple offices. Customers know when their commercial lease ends, so they can save money and reduce waste.

Enterprise inventory management SaaS

Large companies get access to an inventory management dashboard for a monthly fee. Our tool automatically pulls all the info from the Reseat ID, allowing clients to sell or donate the furniture.

Enterprises can add their suppliers, consultants, and furniture dealers. The application lets all parties know when a company plans to move on from its old furniture. This makes it possible to plan operations that minimize waste and expenses.

Three-way marketplace for buyers, sellers, and dealers

Powerful file parser that adds all information about an item

Detailed furniture profiles and 3D visualizations generated automatically

In-app chat for discussing requisitions and furniture transfers

Subscription-based inventory management for enterprises

Flexible management for the company's suppliers and departments

Automated file parsing and data management

Dealers use SIF files to place orders with manufacturers. Data in such files have a lot of formats, making it difficult to parse the information. MindK built an automated system that parses files, transforms the data, and prepares it for future operations.

Users now can

Shop for pre-owned office furniture to save costs

Search by location, type, timeframe, quantity, color, material, and manufacturer

Order additional services to design and manage renovation projects

Upload requisitions with automated file parsing

Onboard suppliers, vendors, and consultants to manage requisitions

Plan the entire furniture lifecycle from one dashboard

Communicate with potential buyers, get status updates, and schedule deliveries

Earn money by reselling furniture when it's no longer needed
