Recorded this at 5AM after losing my phone. Couldn't sleep. The thesis: every early-stage startup needs one person who is both responsible for the outcome and has the right to make the final call. Not consensus. Not a vote. The group d

I'm definitely aware the kind of thing you're talking. We're lucky that with our solution, we deal more with retailers than designer brands. So far it's been not that bad for us. Curious what's the name of company

Gotya, we'll check that. The selections are some time pretty random, since we have a large model pool.

They wouldn't be our competitor on B2B, more like a user of this tech. They might have it at some point (either through us or in house), but only available for merchants on their platform.

Frankly, I think it's just very hard to get the kind of effect you're imagining. https://www.formatech.com I know this company that does what you want, but I don't think their rendering is close to what you'r

haha yeah, there's a lot of nuance about a fitting room that's hard for 1 product to solve. Our current product focus more on the styling / outfits / engagement, not claiming on the exact fit. Hopefully it brings positiv

Yeah, it's slowly getting there but hard to reach 100% so will need QA to touch up for a long time. But the hybrid approach gets better rendering than photoshop vendor image (at least shopper have difficult spotting).

You right, we don't handle fitting at the moment. It's difficult bc most e-commerce don't have diverse body shape model and many other reasons. We are working on it, will take some time for sure.

Haha yeah, photoshoots are definitely not the first thing in our mind, but seems like there's real need for it.

It's possible, and I imagine would be a very cool feature for a shopping app! We went to the B2B path after launching Style Space ( https://apps.apple.com/us/app/style-space/id1535818149 ) and realize we d

Haha, cool idea! I thought we might had this discussion sometime internally. The truth is we haven't got time to explore it yet. One possible difficulty I see is still how do we collect the face data / body data. Image generation

We're considered the 3D option, it's difficult bc most retailers don't have 3D garments and it take very long time to create them. Maybe when that content becomes more available, we'll eventually replace our current syst

Thanks! 1) would love to rotate the model to see how it looks from all angles. This our current product can do, if we were are able to get the side and back garment image from retailer (surprisingly a lot of them don't carry these imag

This is our ultimate goal! It will take some time :) It's very hard to ensure good quality rendering on user uploaded image (a lot of out of distribution). We've seen others who try to do that, but quality not yet great.

wow, that's awesome, thanks! Any suggestions / improvements? Most retailers are asking for diverse body shape supports -- super hard, we're working on it.

Ah, the bag feature is very new, and sth we're still working on to improve. Sorry for the disappointment, but thx for the feedback.

Yeah, we are gonna do it for a few clients and see how well that works. Could be a quicker way to market than the dressing room. "I personally don't find a ton of value in this as a consumer. I want to see how the clothes look on

by likedan5 5y ago
True. We actually didn't thought about this, but some of our client we try to sell the dressing room ask us to make photoshoots since it's more urgent. So now we are doing that too haha. How large do you think the total addressabl

Haha, because we build the first virtual try-on system that's fully automated! We've seen 50+ other companies doing virtual try-on, but they need a lot of manual work to process each garment, thus have difficulty scaleing.

"product images with models" Some of our customer has requested this service and we are doing it for them. There is difference: we use a large deep learning model that has higher latency and we do more QA on these images. The pri
