@vb_30 congrats on the launch Vaishnavi. Can one select a style icon and model the output after that? i.e new james bond.

Hi@zolani_matebese , I like that thought, currently it focuses on style recommendations based on physique to make the reccos better, however I would want to include which is currently in pipeline that is - adding a reference image and asking if that particular inspo would look good on the person or not.
The origin story is the strongest part of this for me, the fact that it came from conversations rather than a fashion background. That's usually the difference between a tool that solves a real frustration and one that solves an imagined one. "I never know what to wear" is a genuinely under-served pain for guys, most fashion advice assumes you already have taste and just need options.
The detail I like: letting someone upload what they already own and styling from that, instead of just pushing them to buy new things. That's the trust-builder, it signals you're optimizing for the user looking good, not for affiliate clicks. Curious how you're handling the cold-start problem, when a new user hasn't uploaded a wardrobe yet, does Olo lean on a few questions to bootstrap recommendations, or does it need the photos first to feel useful?
Also, Olo as a Finnish word for a sense of well-being, that's a quietly perfect name for what you're actually selling, which isn't clothes, it's presence. Congrats on the launch.

Hi@emir_citak , thank you so much for the appreciation, means a lot to me.
Answering your question - "...when a user hasn't uploaded a wardrobe yet" - Olo would ask some questions and ask the user to -
upload their wardrobe photo
share through texts or use voice to text on what they have (eg., 1 blue polo tshirt, black trousers, 1 white basic tshirt, etc)
and based on this Olo gives your reccos

do try it out and share your feedback or thoughts on the same, I would love to hear
A really interesting idea, and definitely a relatable problem.
One thing I’m curious about: how does Olo actually learn my style?
From the screenshots, I don’t see an onboarding step with photos, wardrobe uploads, or body type analysis. So how does it determine what suits me personally versus giving more generic recommendations?
Would love to understand how the personalization works under the hood. 👀

Hi @ilya_makarov2 , thank you so much for the appreciation. Loved the questions
regarding the onboarding steps -
It asks you your body type, complexion, physique and accordingly gives you reccos, it also asks you the occasion that you are planning the outfit for -

What kind of info or trends does Olo look at when giving outfit suggestions for guys?
It reminds me of when people were sharing videos using AI tools for outfit advice, and the results were often more funny than actually wearable😂

Hi @evakk , hahahah I remember those times when the outfits seem to be way out of the 'wearable league', however on Olo, it recommends based on the guy's body type, physique, complexion, type of occasion, what's in his wardrobe, so yes the recommendation is completely wearable.

The “what do I wear?” problem is very real for a lot of guys. I like that Olo seems focused on practical confidence, not just fashion inspiration. The most useful part would be getting advice based on what someone already owns instead of only suggesting new things to buy.

Does Olo work off photos of your actual wardrobe, or is it mostly recommendations from a generic catalog?
Olo

A lot of men want to dress better but don't want to spend hours researching fashion advice. Making style guidance more personal and accessible is a great idea. Congrats on the launch!

Hi@alina_tyslenok_ , thank you so much for the appreciation, means a lot to me.
Interesting concept! Men's style can vary wildly depending on regional trends—does Olo take the user's location into account for weather and local fashion vibes when recommending an outfit? Congrats on launching!
