Gleam is a free new gift-giving app that helps eliminate the time-consuming task of finding great gifts for the special people in your life. Whether that be a birthday, an anniversary, graduation, or even just the holidays, the platform is perfect for busy folk looking for an easy shopping experience to find meaningful gifts. Moreover, the app will send you reminders so you never forget an important milestone.
In addition, Gleam works closely with small businesses to find curated gifts. The app was started by a mom who forgot her godson's birthday and began to realize buying presents seemed more like a chore. The platform is simple to use and sends a questionnaire to recipients to find interest-based gifts for them.
