Introducing Thriver: A Whole Team In Your Pocket
We’re proud to unveil Thriver — the first AI-powered platform built specifically for high street entrepreneurs — and it’s brought to you by SaveTheHighStreet.org.
For years, we’ve worked hand-in-hand with over 500 businesses across UK high streets, markets, and shopping centres. We’ve seen the reality: running a high street business is tough. Time is tight. Budgets are tighter. And the know-how required to juggle marketing, stock, footfall, and finance often feels overwhelming. That’s why we built Thriver.
What is Thriver?
Think of Thriver as a whole team in your pocket. It doesn’t just tell you what to do — it actually helps get the job done. From launching a new social media campaign to improving your product listings or preparing for an upcoming event, Thriver turns goals into completed tasks.
At its core, Thriver is powered by a team of smart, specialist AI assistants — known as Thriver Helpers — who are trained and managed by real people: the high street experts at SaveTheHighStreet.org. Everything that’s done through Thriver is reviewed and approved by a human-in-the-loop, ensuring quality, accuracy, and alignment with your business needs.
This hybrid approach is what sets Thriver apart: the efficiency of AI, combined with the care and judgment of experienced humans. You can trust that what’s being worked on truly reflects your voice, your brand, and your goals.
Designed for High Street Entrepreneurs
Thriver was created after years of listening to and working alongside business owners just like you — independent, ambitious, and often overstretched. Most entrepreneurs we met were amazing at their trade, but didn’t have the time, resources or expertise to do everything needed to grow a business.
That’s where Thriver comes in.
Whether you’re just starting out, building momentum, or navigating a tough patch, Thriver is here to help you:
- Achieve more without burning out
- Stress less by offloading time-consuming tasks
- Stay inspired with proactive ideas and consistent support
A Platform With Broader Impact
Thriver isn’t just helping individual businesses. It’s already powering larger high street transformation strategies through SaveTheHighStreet.org’s national partner network.
Across the UK, councils, landlords, developers, asset managers, operators and agents are now using Thriver to deliver scalable support in the form of:
- Accelerators – Improving the economics and effectiveness of business support programs for local traders.
- Incubators – Filling vacant units with promising new businesses, backed by targeted support to help them succeed.
- Anchors – Repurposing large empty spaces (like former department stores) into vibrant multi-tenant destinations.
These solutions are already live in 8 centres — and new launches are planned throughout 2025.
