I’m an indie iOS developer, and I’m the wrong person to build a wardrobe app: I wear gym t-shirts all year round.
I have maybe 100 things and I rotate 12 of them, so when I left for Canada on a one-way ticket last year, I had to figure out exactly what things to pack. There are plenty of “AI stylists” on the App Store, but none of the ones I tried wanted me to photograph objects one by one on a white background. Instead of spending two hours on that, I spent a few months building (rather than packaging, that is) the app.
There are three main ways to use it:
1. Upload lots of selfies. Laird reads them and creates your wardrobe for you.
2. Enter a photo of the new dress. This turns it into a neat Pinterest-style lookbook – removes wrinkles, folds neatly – and saves it to your digital wardrobe.
3. Any trip next week? It packs a capsule wardrobe tailored to your destination, season and luggage size. This is the feature I didn’t expect anyone else to care about, and now it’s the feature people use the most.
It comes with tons of other tools like analytics (from cost to wear to wardrobe ROI), an AI stylist chat bot, and “Style DNA” to help you analyze what to wear or the shortcomings in your wardrobe.
I’m still figuring out monetization – it leans heavily on tokens – so everyone gets 5 free AI interactions before the paywall. To celebrate the PH launch, here are some deeply discounted monthly codes:
