Peggy

Peggy is a Toronto-based social marketplace that connects artists, galleries, and collectors in the contemporary and investment-grade art sectors.

Founded in 2020 by Craig Follett and Adam Meghji, the company aims to democratize access to high-quality art. With a team of approximately 35-39 employees, Peggy has raised $8.04 million in funding, with its latest Seed round completed in February 2023. Peggy's primary offering is a mobile application available on iOS and Android. The app allows users to discover a wide range of artwork, securely buy and sell pieces, and engage with the art community. Key features include digital fingerprinting for authenticity verification, ownership registration, and a royalty program that benefits artists and galleries on secondary sales. The platform also provides curated collections, podcasts, and personalized recommendations to enhance users' appreciation of art. Peggy's mission is to make art accessible to everyone while ensuring a secure and transparent marketplace.
