About Elfy

AI-powered gift recommendations that actually get it right

What We Do

Elfy takes the guesswork out of gift-giving by analyzing publicly available social media profiles to understand what people actually care about. Instead of generic gift guides, we use AI to deliver personalized recommendations based on real interests, hobbies, and aesthetic preferences.

Our platform connects multiple data sources—Instagram, TikTok, X/Twitter, and Facebook—to build a comprehensive picture of someone's passions. Then we search across Amazon, eBay, Etsy, and premium retailers to find the perfect match.

How It Works

1. Profile Analysis

We analyze public social media profiles using sophisticated AI that looks at posting patterns, engagement levels, visual aesthetics, and stated interests. The more profiles you provide, the more confident our recommendations become.

2. Cross-Platform Validation

When the same interest appears across multiple platforms, we know it's genuine. Someone who posts about climbing on Instagram and shares climbing videos on TikTok is more than a casual enthusiast.

3. Curated Product Search

Our AI generates optimized search queries and browses thousands of products across major retailers. We prioritize quality, relevance, and value—filtering out generic results to surface truly thoughtful options.

Our Technology

Elfy is powered by advanced AI from Google Gemini, trained to understand the nuances of social media behavior and translate them into meaningful gift insights. Our system:

Uses platform-specific psychology (Instagram aesthetics vs. TikTok trends vs. X opinions)
Assigns confidence scores based on data quality and consistency
Incorporates seasonal context and occasion-specific recommendations
Optimizes for diversity across categories, brands, and price points
Refuses to recommend harmful or inappropriate products

Why We Built This

Gift-giving is one of the most meaningful ways we connect with people, but it's also surprisingly difficult. Traditional gift guides are one-size-fits-all. Manual stalking of someone's social media is time-consuming and error-prone.

We built Elfy to bridge that gap—combining the personalization of deep research with the speed and scale of AI. The result is recommendations that feel like they came from someone who truly knows the recipient.
