Best AI Stylist & Complete the Look Apps for Shopify (2026)

If you run a fashion store on Shopify, you have probably searched for an app that shows shoppers the whole outfit instead of one product, and come away confused. Half the results are manual lookbook builders, half are generic upsell widgets, and a few are genuine AI outfitting tools, all using the same words: "complete the look," "shop the look," "AI stylist." They are not the same thing, and picking the wrong category wastes either your money or your time.

This is a fair comparison of the real options as of 2026, grouped by what they actually do. We publish it as the team behind Angadi, one of the apps listed, so treat our own entry with appropriate skepticism. We have tried to place every tool, including ours, where the evidence honestly puts it.

In short: "AI outfitting" and "shop the look" are different products. True AI apps generate outfits from your catalog (Angadi, elfai, Runa, and enterprise Stylitics). Manual apps make you build every look by hand (Byte Lookbook and others). General recommendation engines bolt a "complete the look" tile onto generic cross-sell AI (Rebuy, LimeSpot, Nosto). This guide sorts them so you can match the tool to your store and budget.

Why complete the look matters for fashion

Fashion shoppers tend to land on one product and leave with one product, which is why outfit merchandising moves the numbers it does. Showing a coordinated look turns a single-item visit into a basket. Stylitics, the largest outfitting vendor, reports that look-based programs "on average have proven to drive an increase of 1.8x in conversion rates, a 23 percent increase in UPT and a 21 percent increase in AOV". Those figures are vendor-reported, so read them as directional. The most rigorous number available is a Forrester Total Economic Impact study of Stylitics, which puts the lift at 10% AOV with 563% ROI, but Stylitics commissioned it, so it is a better data point rather than an independent one. As of September 2026 there is still no independent, category-specific lift study for complete-the-look merchandising we can point you to. The direction, though, is consistent across the category: outfits raise average order value.

The catch is that "show the outfit" is easy to say and hard to do well. The apps below take very different approaches to it, at very different prices, so the right answer depends on your catalog, your team, and your budget.

How we evaluated these apps

We looked at the things a fashion operator actually has to live with:

Does it generate outfits with AI, or do you build each look by hand?
Is it fashion-aware (style, occasion, coordination) or generic "frequently bought together"?
Can you approve or edit what publishes, or does it go live on its own?
Does it show you the revenue each look drives?
Is the pricing accessible for a small or mid-sized brand?
Is it a self-serve Shopify app or an enterprise integration?
How mature is it: reviews, install base, Built for Shopify status?
Does it work on a new or small catalog with little order history?

The four kinds of "complete the look" apps

Most of the confusion in this category disappears once you split it into four groups:

True AI outfit apps generate looks from your catalog automatically. Self-serve examples: Angadi, elfai, Runa. Enterprise: Stylitics.
Manual shop the look apps let you tag products onto an image by hand. Examples: Byte Lookbook, BeUniq.
General recommendation engines do broad AI cross-sell with a "complete the look" feature among many. Examples: Rebuy, LimeSpot, Nosto, Wiser, Glood.
Enterprise platforms offer deep outfitting and attribution through a sales-led integration rather than a self-serve install. Examples: Stylitics, Vue.ai, Lily AI.

AI outfit apps (self-serve on Shopify)

These generate outfits from your products without you styling each one by hand. This is the newest and most directly "AI complete the look" group.

Angadi

What it does: Builds complete outfits from your own Shopify catalog and places them on product pages through two widgets, "Complete the Look" and "Style it With," plus a cart drawer recommendation. Where you already have a styled photo, Shop the Look turns it into a shoppable modal on the product page. Look videos play on the product page with the featured items listed beside them. The AI drafts the looks and you approve, reject, or swap pieces before anything goes live, or you can let it publish one look per product page and remove any of them in a tap. It includes 24-hour revenue attribution that shows which looks drove sales, and a Marketing kit that turns approved looks into editorial email assets for Klaviyo and Omnisend.

Pricing: Pro $59/mo (up to 1,500 products), Pro Plus $149/mo (up to 5,000) and Pro Scale $399/mo (up to 15,000), counting products, not variants. Every plan has every feature and a 14-day free trial. Billed through Shopify.

Strengths: The combination of AI-drafted outfits with a merchant approval step is rare at this price. Built specifically for fashion, with revenue attribution included, flat SMB pricing, and it works on any theme. Because it reads your catalog rather than relying on purchase history, it works on a new or small store from day one.

Weaknesses: It is new, with few public reviews and no Built for Shopify status yet, so you are backing a young product rather than a long track record. The WhatsApp share card and the monthly editorial Brief aren't live yet.

Best for: Contemporary D2C fashion brands that want AI to build the outfits but insist on approving everything that goes on their store, at a price a small brand can absorb.

elfai (AI Stylist: Complete the Look)

What it does: AI "Complete the Look" outfit suggestions on product pages, plus product search and a conversational "ask anything" feature, marketed to fashion and apparel stores.

Pricing: Basic $10/mo covers up to 1,000 products and 5,000 requests a month, Plus $40/mo covers 10,000 products and 50,000 requests, and Pro is $80/mo for unlimited usage. 10-day free trial. This is a rebuild of elfai's pricing since our last update, and it is cheaper than what we published in August.

Strengths: The closest self-serve AI alternative to Angadi, with the lowest entry price of any true AI outfit app and a quick setup. It launched in early 2025.

Weaknesses: Check which listing you are installing. The main elfai listing shows no reviews at all and meters on products plus monthly requests; a parallel "elfai: AI Fashion Stylist" listing shows $14.99 and $49.99 plans metered on clicked recommendations, a 15-day trial and a 5.0 rating from one review. Two listings with different meters and different prices is a confusing thing to buy into. Beyond that: almost no review track record, request limits on the lower tiers, and no published merchant-approval workflow or fashion-specific attribution comparable to a dedicated outfitting tool.

Best for: Brands wanting the cheapest entry into AI complete-the-look who are comfortable with a very new app.

Vensa: AI Complete The Look

Listing status: we could not load Vensa's Complete The Look listing on 12 September 2026. Vensa's separate virtual try-on app is live and the vendor site is up, but this listing did not resolve for us, so everything below is a July 2026 capture we have not been able to re-verify. Treat the prices as unconfirmed.

What it does: AI-generated looks on product pages, with an automatic bundle discount as the headline feature. A shopper who adds two or more items from a look gets the discount applied at cart, with no code needed. Five widget layouts to choose from.

Pricing (unverified, July 2026): Free for 3 published looks and 10 AI suggestions in the first month, then Starter at $14.99/mo (25 looks, 50 suggestions a month) and Pro at $39.99/mo (unlimited looks, 200 suggestions a month). Launched July 2026.

Strengths: The auto-discount is a clean idea and the setup is quick. Cheapest paid entry in the AI outfit group.

Weaknesses: No reviews yet. Their own listing describes the AI as matching on category, style and colour, which is attribute matching rather than outfit logic. On a test catalog the looks it generated were mostly built around accessories, so several were the same outfit with a different bag. There is no documented approval step before looks publish.

Best for: Brands whose main goal is moving two items instead of one, and who would rather reward the bundle than style it.

Nady AI Outfit Stylist & Upsell

What it does: A product-page widget showing AI-generated outfit combinations built from your catalog, with an outfits feed page and manual outfit creation on the higher plan.

Pricing: Starter $29/mo (or $290/yr) analyses up to 300 products and generates 50 outfits. Growth $48/mo (or $480/yr) covers 800 products and 200 outfits, and adds the outfits feed and manual creation. 14-day trial.

Strengths: Manual outfit editing on the Growth plan is closer to a real approval workflow than most apps at this price offer.

Weaknesses: No reviews at all as of September 2026. The meter is a fixed number of generated outfits rather than ongoing coverage, so a catalog that turns over often will exhaust the allowance and need a top-up or an upgrade. The listing says "AI-generated outfit combinations" without saying whether the imagery is composited or your own product photos arranged together, which is worth asking before you install.

Best for: Small, fairly stable catalogs that want a cheap AI outfit widget and the option to fix what the AI gets wrong.

AI stylist chat and quiz apps

These put a stylist in front of the shopper instead of outfits on the product page. A shopper asks a question, or answers a few, and the app replies with suggestions. It's a different job from complete the look, and worth being clear about which one you actually want: a chat stylist helps the shopper who engages with it, while a product-page widget works on everyone who lands on the page. Most stores see single-digit engagement with chat.

One caution on the newer end of this group. iWAND, misi and Styailist have all launched since early 2025 and have three published reviews between them as of September 2026, so there is very little merchant evidence either way yet. Trial them on your own catalog rather than trusting the category.

Runa (AI Stylist & Merchandiser)

What it does: An "agentic" fashion AI that auto-builds complete-the-look bundles and matching outfits, plus a 24/7 AI personal stylist chat, a trend spotter, and out-of-stock replacement.

Pricing: Three tiers by catalog size: AI Merchant Start $499/mo up to 2,000 products, Growth $749/mo for 2,000 to 5,000 products, Scale $999/mo above that. 14-day free trial. We had this at "from $199/mo by monthly orders" in August; the live listing says otherwise, and the correction is large enough to change the shortlist for most readers.

Strengths: The broadest automation and a chat-first styling experience. It holds a 5.0 rating from two reviews and launched in early 2024, making it one of the older AI stylist listings.

Weaknesses: The entry price is several times any other self-serve app here. Read the tiers before you assume the money buys more styling: all three list the same "Complete the Look on every PDP" and store-wide recommendations, and what the higher plans add is priority support and, at Scale, a dedicated account manager. Because the meter is catalog size, a 2,100-product store pays $749 a month whether the app sells anything or not. The review base is thin, and the outfit-building is automated rather than merchant-approved, so you give up some control.

Best for: Brands that specifically want a 24/7 AI stylist chat experience and can justify $499 a month or more.

Glance AI

What it does: Natural-language search, AI styling that assembles complete looks on the product page, weather-based outfit suggestions, virtual try-on from a single selfie, and matching your catalog against clothes a shopper uploads from their own wardrobe.

Pricing: Free to install. Sign up before 1 October 2026 and it is free through 31 December 2026, after which Glance takes 10% of incremental GMV.

Strengths: Comfortably the best-capitalised entrant in this guide. Glance is an unconsolidated subsidiary of InMobi, backed by Google, Jio Platforms and Mithril Capital, so the usual "will this app still exist next year" worry about a new listing applies less here than anywhere else on this page. No fixed monthly fee, and the promotional period means you can run it through a season for nothing.

Weaknesses: One review, from August 2026, on a listing that only launched in May 2026. The styling shows AI-generated imagery rather than your own photography, which is a brand decision before it is a technical one. And the listing does not define "incremental" GMV or publish an attribution window, so you would be agreeing to a percentage of a number you cannot yet model. Ask for the definition in writing before the free period ends.

Best for: Brands that want conversational styling and try-on with no fixed fee, are comfortable with generated imagery, and will do the work of pinning down how the revenue share is measured.

iWAND: AI Stylist & Try-On

What it does: A set of agents rather than one chatbot. The AI Fashion Stylist asks visitors about body type, skin tone and how they want to look, then builds outfits from the answers and shows them on a matched model with virtual try-on. A Pair Agent styles your catalog against pieces the shopper uploads from their own wardrobe. There are also product-page agents that handle sizing and fit hesitation, a complete-the-look agent, and conversational and image-based search.

Pricing: Free to install, with 400 AI messages a month and $0.06 for each one beyond that. Standard is $59/mo for 2,000 messages, then $0.05 each. 30-day trial.

Strengths: The wardrobe-upload idea is the most interesting thing anyone in this category is doing. Styling your catalog against what the shopper already owns is a real answer to "will this go with anything." Custom branding with no "powered by" badge, and you can start at zero.

Weaknesses: Message-metered pricing means your bill tracks traffic rather than sales, which is awkward if you get browsers. The styling lives behind a widget the shopper has to open, so it only reaches the ones who engage with it. As of September 2026 it has two reviews, one of them from a watch store after about a day of use, which is not yet evidence of anything. The listing requests script tag and theme modification access alongside browsing behaviour and cookie data.

Best for: Brands that want a conversational sales assistant and are happy to pay per message.

misi: AI Outfits & Style Quiz

What it does: A style quiz that feeds outfit recommendations, sold on raising AOV. It matches products by colour and style, shows recommendations on product pages, and reports styling sessions and revenue on a dashboard.

Pricing: Free to install, then 10% of the sales the app is credited with. The free tier covers up to 250 products.

Strengths: Quizzes convert attention into a stated preference, which is more reliable than inferring taste from clicks. Nothing to pay upfront, and on a commission model you only pay when it is credited with a sale.

Weaknesses: Almost nothing published to evaluate: one review as of September 2026, a listing live since April 2025, and no documented approval workflow. A revenue share can cost considerably more than a flat monthly fee once volume arrives, and it makes the app's own attribution the thing your bill depends on, which is worth reading closely before you install. The listing requests order-editing access and 60 days of order history, which is consistent with order-level attribution over a 60-day window, but the model itself is not published. The quiz also sits in front of the outfits, so shoppers who skip it get nothing.

Best for: Small brands who want to test whether their shoppers will answer a quiz at all, without a monthly commitment.

Styailist

What it does: An AI shopping assistant that does body shape and colour analysis, builds a persistent "Style Passport" for each shopper, and recommends from your catalog on that basis. The higher plan adds virtual try-on. It is sold on reducing returns as much as on raising basket size.

Pricing: Starter $49/mo covers up to 450 products and 1,000 AI queries a month. Growth $99/mo covers 1,000 products and 5,000 queries. Pro $199/mo covers 5,000 products and 10,000 style queries. 7-day trial.

We had Styailist at $299 and $599 in August. Those are the figures on the vendor's own website, which still says "plans start from $299/month," but the Shopify listing you would actually be billed through starts at $49. That is the number we are going with, and it moves Styailist from the most expensive self-serve app in this guide to one of the cheaper ones.

Strengths: Colour and body-shape analysis is genuinely useful advice, and it's the kind of thing shoppers ask a human for. At $49 it is now cheap enough to trial on judgment rather than on a business case.

Weaknesses: No reviews at all as of September 2026, on a listing that has been live since September 2025. The query allowance is the thing to watch: 1,000 AI queries a month is not many if the assistant is visible on every page, so a traffic spike, not a sales spike, is what pushes you up a tier. And a vendor whose website and App Store listing disagree by 6x on price is a small signal worth noticing.

Best for: Fashion brands that specifically want body and colour analysis and are willing to be an early merchant on a listing with no published track record.

AI Stylist

What it does: Despite the name, this is a virtual try-on and size recommendation plugin. Shoppers answer a short questionnaire, the app predicts measurements and suggests a size, and there is a try-on view.

Pricing: Lite $3.95/mo (5 try-on looks, 400 size recommendations, up to 100 products live). Standard $8.95/mo (20 looks, 3,000 recommendations, 500 products). Premium $38.95/mo (50 looks, unlimited recommendations, 3,000 products). 14-day trial.

Strengths: It has been on the App Store since 2022, far longer than anything else in this group, and it is much the cheapest. Sizing is a real returns problem rather than a nice-to-have.

Weaknesses: It doesn't build outfits. If you searched "AI stylist" hoping for complete-the-look, this isn't that. Four years on the App Store have produced almost no review history, and what exists does not agree with itself: the listing shows 5.0 from one review while the developer's own app page lists 3.7 from three, so the reviews not shown on the listing average lower. Reviews have flagged the questionnaire asking about body shape before it asks for measurements, plus some distortion in the try-on rendering. Every plan caps how many products can be live.

Best for: Stores whose problem is size-related returns, not basket size.

Enterprise outfitting platforms

Stylitics

If you want the most proven outfitting technology and have an enterprise budget, Stylitics is the honest category leader. Per Retail TouchPoints, it is used by more than 100 major retailers across six markets, including Express, Puma, Chico's FAS and Williams-Sonoma, and reaches over 100 million shoppers a month. It offers Shop the Look, Styled for You, and Complete the Look across product pages, email, and galleries, with human stylist oversight.

The trade-off is fit. Stylitics is a sales-led enterprise integration with custom pricing rather than a self-serve Shopify app, and it is scoped and priced for large retailers. For most small and mid-sized brands it is more platform than the problem requires. Other enterprise players in this tier, including Vue.ai, Lily AI, Syte, and Intelistyle, are similarly integration-led and out of reach for typical SMB budgets.

Manual shop the look apps

These are proven and cheap, but there is no AI: you build every outfit by hand.

Byte Lookbook & Shop The Look

What it does: Hotspot lookbooks, shoppable galleries, carousels, and one-click "add the look," with look-level analytics. You tag the products on each image yourself.

Pricing: Free plan covering one lookbook, plus Growth at $19/mo or $150/yr for unlimited lookbooks, custom designs and advanced analytics. 7-day trial on Growth. The "$10 a month with a lifetime option" figures that circulate on comparison sites, ours included until now, are out of date; there is no lifetime plan on the live listing.

Strengths: The most established option in this group. It shows a 5.0 rating from 116 reviews, 99% of them five stars, and it is the only app in this entire guide carrying the Built for Shopify badge, having launched in 2017. Reliable, affordable, and credible.

Weaknesses: No AI. Every look is manual labor, which does not scale across a large or fast-changing catalog.

Best for: Brands that want the cheapest proven path and are happy to build looks by hand.

BeUniq (Shop the look – Upsell)

A simpler, low-cost option that assigns products to a main item and shows them in a drawer. One plan at $1.99/mo with a 3-day trial, a 5.0 rating from a single review, live since 2023. It is inexpensive and straightforward, but it is not AI, and it has a small install base and minimal review history.

General AI recommendation engines

These are mature, capable personalization tools. Their outfit logic is generic cross-sell AI rather than fashion-aware styling, and none offer an "AI drafts, you approve outfits" workflow, but if you already run one you may not need a separate app for basic complete-the-look tiles. That generic-versus-styled distinction is exactly how complete the look compares to frequently bought together.

Rebuy is a powerful AI upsell and cross-sell engine across cart, checkout, and post-purchase, with "complete the look" as one capability. Its cheapest paid plan now starts at $25/mo and scales with usage, well below the $99 entry tier that older comparisons (including our August version) still quote. Best for broad AOV optimization rather than fashion styling.
LimeSpot does 1:1 personalization, bundles, and frequently-bought-together. The entry plan, LimeSpot Turbo, is $9.99/mo and rises by order band. Mature and affordable, but generic rather than fashion-specific.
Nosto is enterprise-grade AI personalization and search. The app is free to install but requires a paid Nosto account arranged with their sales team, and there is no entry price published on the listing, so budget for an enterprise conversation rather than a monthly fee.
Wiser starts free up to 50 orders a month and then $9/mo, order-metered. Glood.ai has a free plan; its cheapest paid tier is not published clearly enough on the listing for us to quote. Both offer a "shop the look" tile, flexible and affordable but not fashion-aware.

Apps we could not verify

These names turn up in other 2026 roundups of this category, usually with confident prices attached. We went looking for each one on the Shopify App Store on 12 September 2026 and could not find a live listing, so we are not going to repeat the numbers as fact. Absence from search is not proof an app does not exist. It may be newly launched, delisted, regionally gated, or listed under a different name. But a price you cannot check on the listing you would be billed through is not a price, and you should treat it as a vendor claim until you can see it yourself.

Virtue Mirage: Personalization. An Australian "digital twin" platform launched in September 2026 and covered in trade press, where founder Lukas Cervenan describes it as rendering a shopper's own body into every image on a store, with a semantic engine pairing items across the catalog onto that avatar. If that description holds up, it would be the only tool here doing cross-category outfit assembly on a generated body. Token-metered pricing from $229 to $2,299 a month circulates; we could not verify any of it on a Shopify listing.
Vensa: AI Complete The Look. Covered above. The separate try-on app is live; this listing did not resolve for us.
Fitto AI Stylist, Railory, MIA - Match It Assistant, Auraist, Anaqa AI, STYLYS. No listing found under any of these names. "Railory" is worth flagging: searches for it tend to surface Styailist instead, so a comparison that lists both as separate products may be counting one app twice.
Style Guru and Modilai Style Creator. Both have live vendor sites and neither has a Shopify App Store listing we could find. Modilai's published pricing is euro-denominated with a one-time setup fee around €1,000, which is a different commercial shape from everything else on this page.

Verified against live Shopify App Store listings on 12 September 2026. Ratings, review counts and prices change constantly, so check the listing before you decide. Two figures moved a long way since our August update and are worth calling out: Runa's entry price is $499 a month rather than $199, and Styailist's is $49 rather than $299. One more thing this table makes plain: Byte Lookbook, the manual app, is the only listing here with the Built for Shopify badge. None of the AI stylist entrants have it, ours included.

Real product photos or AI-generated imagery

This split gets less attention than price and matters more. Some of these apps show a shopper your actual product photography arranged into a look; others generate a new image of a garment on a model or on the shopper. That is a brand decision before it is a technical one, and it is becoming a compliance one: Article 50 of the EU AI Act places transparency obligations on systems that generate image content toward the people who see it. None of the listings we read discloses AI-generated imagery in those terms.

Your own product photography: Angadi, elfai, misi, Runa, Byte Lookbook, BeUniq.
AI-generated imagery: Glance AI (diffusion try-on renders), AI Stylist (generated try-on on models), Vensa's try-on app (built on Google Vertex AI), and Virtue Mirage per press coverage (digital twin of the shopper).
Not clear from the listing: Nady AI, whose "AI-generated outfit combinations" could mean either, and iWAND, which shows outfits on a matched model. Ask both what the shopper actually sees.

If you sell into the EU, ask any vendor in the second group how a generated image is labelled to the shopper, and get the answer in writing before you install. If the app asks shoppers to upload a photo, who carries the risk when a shopper uploads a photo has a ten-question scorecard for vetting it.

How to choose

If you are...	Use
A small Shopify fashion brand	Angadi or elfai
An enterprise retailer	Stylitics
Someone who wants manual control	Byte Lookbook
Already using a personalization engine	Rebuy or LimeSpot
After an AI stylist chat experience, with budget	Runa
After a chat stylist on a free tier	iWAND
Happier paying a share of sales than a monthly fee	misi or Glance AI
Testing whether shoppers will take a style quiz	misi

The right pick comes down to your stage and budget more than any single feature.

If you are a contemporary D2C fashion brand on Shopify with a small or mid-sized catalog and you want styled outfits without building each one by hand, start with a true AI outfit app. Angadi fits if you want the AI to draft looks but you want final approval over what publishes, plus attribution to see what sells. It has a 14-day trial to validate it on your own catalog before paying. Compare it head to head with elfai during the trials, since elfai is the closest self-serve alternative, and judge on outfit quality and the workflow rather than price alone. Look at Runa only if you specifically want a 24/7 AI stylist chat and can justify $499 a month at the entry tier.

If you are an enterprise or large mid-market brand with a big catalog and a dedicated merchandising team, evaluate Stylitics. The custom cost is justified only above the scale where outfitting's reported lift clears six-figure platform fees.

If you want the cheapest proven path and do not mind manual work, use Byte Lookbook. You build every outfit yourself, but it is reliable and well-reviewed.

If you already run a personalization engine like Rebuy or LimeSpot and just want basic "complete the look" tiles, you may not need a dedicated app, as long as you do not expect fashion-aware styling or a brand-approval step.

FAQ

What is the difference between "shop the look" and "complete the look"? In practice the terms overlap, but the useful distinction is how the outfit gets made. "Shop the look" usually refers to a manually built image where someone tags the products. "Complete the look" increasingly refers to AI-generated outfits assembled around the product a shopper is viewing. Both aim to sell the whole outfit; one is hand-built, the other is generated.

What is the best AI complete-the-look app for Shopify? It depends on your size. For SMB fashion brands that want AI-built outfits with merchant approval at accessible pricing, Angadi and elfai are the main self-serve options, with Runa as a premium chat-led alternative. For enterprise retailers, Stylitics is the most proven outfitting platform. For manual control on a budget, Byte Lookbook is the established choice.

What is the best AI stylist app for Shopify? It depends which half of the phrase you mean. If you want a chat or quiz stylist that talks to shoppers, iWAND has a free tier, Glance AI is free until the end of 2026 and then takes a share of sales, and Styailist starts at $49 a month. If you want AI-built outfits on your product pages that every visitor sees, Angadi and elfai are the self-serve options, and Stylitics is the enterprise one. Most of the chat apps launched within the last year and have very few reviews, so trial them on your own catalog before committing.

Is an AI stylist the same as complete the look? Not quite. "AI stylist" usually means a chat or quiz that advises an individual shopper. "Complete the look" means outfit suggestions attached to a product page, shown to everyone. The chat version reaches the shoppers who engage with it; the product-page version reaches all of them. Some apps do both.

Do I need a chatbot to offer styling on my store? No. Chat stylists only reach shoppers who open them, and engagement is usually in the single digits. If your goal is a bigger basket rather than a guided conversation, outfit widgets on the product page do that without asking the shopper to start a chat.

Do I need an AI app, or is a manual lookbook enough? If your catalog is small and stable and you enjoy styling, a manual lookbook app like Byte is cheap and effective. If your catalog is large or changes often, hand-styling every product does not scale, and an AI outfit app saves significant time.

How much do AI outfit apps cost on Shopify? Self-serve AI outfit apps range from free into the hundreds a month: Angadi starts at $59 a month, elfai starts at $10 and Nady at $29, while premium chat-led tools like Runa start at $499. Manual shop-the-look apps start free or around $19. Enterprise outfitting platforms use custom pricing.

Will these apps work on a brand-new store with few orders? AI outfit apps that read your catalog (rather than purchase history) work from day one, which suits new and small stores. Recommendation engines that rely on co-purchase data need order history to perform well, so they are weaker on new catalogs.
