About

The company raised $5 million in equity last November from Equal Ventures and Eniac to give it $28 million in total equity and debt funding. The company has about 20 job openings in the areas of full-stack engineers, data analysts and data science. Josh Kaplan and Dee Murthy, both founder and co-CEO of the Los Angeles–based company, started Ghost in 2021 after previously working together at Four Five Group, a men’s apparel business. ”The end of the product lifecycle is where Murthy and Kaplan feel Ghost has “an enormous opportunity to help people be more efficient in that process,” Murthy added. Ghost is not alone in developing technology focused on inventory.
