Why Gift Finder Exists
The brutally honest story of why we built a smarter way to find gifts
The Problem We All Face
You start with good intentions: "This year, I'm going to find the perfect gift."
Then suddenly you're three hours deep, scrolling through 42 tabs, wondering if your dad really needs another novelty mug that says "World's Okayest Golfer."
Yeah. Been there.
My Gift-Giving Disasters
That's exactly what happened to me — more than once. I've panic-bought scented candles for people who hate scents. I've wrapped socks and tried to pass them off as "thoughtfully minimalist." I've bought a gift card and told myself it was "flexible." Deep down? I knew it was lazy.
My Hall of Shame:
- • Scented candles for people with allergies
- • "Minimalist" socks (they were just socks)
- • Generic gift cards disguised as "thoughtful"
- • Last-minute petrol station purchases
The Lightbulb Moment
So I thought, what if there was a way to actually get help? Not just a top-10 list written by a robot, but something that gets who you're buying for.
"A gift for my sister who's obsessed with baking, horror movies, and houseplants."
Boom — actual ideas, not just "a whisk."
So I built this website.
What Makes Us Different
It's powered by AI, fueled by tea, and designed to save your sanity. You tell us who you're buying for — quirks and all — and we'll whip up gifts that are funny, thoughtful, and probably way better than anything you would've found at the checkout of a service station.
AI-Powered
Smart recommendations based on personality, not algorithms
Personality-First
Tell us their quirks, we'll find their perfect match
Sanity-Saving
No more 42 tabs or checkout line panic buys
Our Mission
We're here to make gift-giving fun again — not frustrating.
Because the perfect gift shouldn't take a breakdown and a browser meltdown.
Just your words. Our weird, helpful little robot. And maybe a few mugs… but only good ones.
