Astrid is a game changing AI personal shopper and stylist. She's like ChatGPT on steroids for apparel. She can help you decide your style vibe and search tens of thousands of products so you don't have to.
Hi Product Hunt! CEO of Astrid here. I'm super excited to show everyone this product and get your feedback. As far as I'm aware, this is one of the first (if not the first) apparel personal shopping agents for consumers that is live. This is a truly agentic, ChatGPT-like experience.
We built this because shopping for apparel online has gotten pretty terrible. The variety in apparel has never been better, but unfortunately there's tens of millions of e-commerce stores. Shopping is like one long endless scroll. E-commerce personalization has never really delivered on its promise. Paid ad placements and paid partnerships on social make recommendations feel scammy.
I don't think building a product like this that understands shopping and style was possible until very recently. The access we have to state of the art VLMs, LLMs, embedding models, etc. has unlocked a world of possibilities. It's truly never been a better time to build.
Please let me know what you think! Also happy to answer questions.
This sounds amazing! I would use this daily, I'm sure of it. I have one question, does it recommend full outfit combos or just individual pieces?
Love this!! Is there a way for Astrid to learn and tailor answers for a user's style preference over time?
This is an intriguing product as an AI personal shopper is very niche. I believe consumers would find it helpful if it could effectively filter through all those apparel sites and narrow down on choices that consumers enjoy. As online shopping is more prevalent now, this could be the perfect addition to simplify the online shopping experience.
This is fascinating, what AI model does this follow, is it based on one already on the market or is it original?
Interesting product. I'm curious to see how the audience utilizes it, and would you get any sort of commission from the vendor if the consumer purchases the product that the AI recommends?
@kyle_rush - totally love the UX, branding and colours. I have two questions:
How do you plan to earn money / monetize it?
How do you get your data? Do you plan to integrate with shopify or amazon or something?
Love this app! I found my perfect rayon shirt in minutes instead of wasting half an hour hopping between sites. Made the shopping experience really easy for me.
Congrats on the launch @kyle_rush, my partner will love this! How are you planning on monetising?
Congrats on the launch everyone! Curious, what are the most unobvious challenges with surfacing styles based on user queries? Is it hard to get models to have good taste when it comes to picking products?
Really like the concept and the demo looks great, but it seems a bit slow, as you said. One question, is Astrid also for men?
