About Bustem
Bustem helps e-commerce brands identify and take down copycats, counterfeiters, scammers, and unauthorized sellers stealing their revenue. We scan marketplaces, websites, ads, and domains to detect brand abuse and enforce against it.
Bustem is bootstrapped, profitable, and growing fast: we hit $1M ARR within 60 days of launch and have since scaled to $5M ARR with zero outside investors. We've enforced takedowns on 100,000 infringing listings, reclaimed over $1M in lost revenue, and now protect over 120 brands.
