Looties launched a new app with 12 beta testers before the Go Live.

Looties – The Marketplace for Tech Swag Looties is a peer-to-peer marketplace where developers, founders, and tech enthusiasts buy and sell conference swag, limited-edition merch, and developer gear from the events they love. More than just swag, conference t-shirts, historic stickers, and limited editions have become true cultural markers. Wearing a Kubernetes hoodie or owning a vintage GitHub sticker isn’t trivial — it signals your journey, your expertise, and your belonging to a community. Looties goes beyond simply listing products. It creates a new circulation dynamic within the community, around objects that until now remained confined to closed circles. As a result, thousands of exclusive items sit unused in closets, while isolated developers, international enthusiasts, and community members who don’t attend these events have no access to pieces that represent their stacks or favorite frameworks. By making these items visible, accessible, and tradable, Looties opens up a new space for a global community of tens of millions of professionals — at the intersection of second-hand commerce, tech culture, and professional identity. Key features of the Looties experience - Fully specialized inventory: 100% tech-focused, from major players (Microsoft, GitHub, MongoDB…) to rising AI companies (Baseten, Pruna AI, Together AI…) - AI-powered experience: Artificial intelligence is embedded at the core of the platform to simplify item listing for sellers Rare and unique items: Hundreds of products already available, including rare AMD Lego sets and “Docker x Doom” stickers - A living museum: Brands. Conferences. Defining moments. One item at a time Looties is a marketplace dedicated to the iconic objects of the tech ecosystem. It enables developers and techies to buy and resell items from conferences, within a space where tech culture is collected, shared, and kept in motion.
