OUR

STORY

Hometalk, Inc. is a family of DIY lifestyle brands, spanning the home & garden, food, and fashion verticals, reaching tens of millions of people each month.

We founded Hometalk in 2011, originally as a destination for people doing home improvement projects to easily access information. Our vision was for contractors and homeowners to use the platform to share projects, knowledge, ideas, and experiences, thereby creating more transparency in the home improvement industry and helping people save time, money and frustration.

Within a few short years, it became clear to us that Hometalk’s appeal was not in learning about what contractors could do for you, but what you could do yourself!  Today, Hometalk, Inc. is a family of DIY lifestyle brands and the world’s largest DIY community, spanning the home & garden, food, and fashion verticals, reaching tens of millions of people each month.

Simplify was born out of Hometalk.com, the world’s largest DIY community centered around home & garden projects. In 2022, after seeing a heightened interest within our community towards minimalism and conservation, we decided to create an additional platform focused on those values. Like Hometalk, Simplify is devoted to enabling our audience to find inspiration and information, but with a focus on minimizing their spending, budgeting their expenses, and generally simplifying their lifestyle.
