Sizekick: “Taking sizing in e-commerce to a new level”
Sizekick CEO David Oldeen says:
"The feedback from the market and discussions with future partners in the fashion and sports industries speak for themselves. What's needed is a true sizing problem solver that takes into account the different body shapes of users, as well as the differences between individual styles and brands, when recommending sizes. This is exactly what we can offer at Sizekick, thus taking sizing in e-commerce to a new level."
Jake Lydon, CTO at Sizekick, says:
"The strategic partnership with Hohenstein enables us, as a new AI solution, to meet the high demands of the market right from the start and assume the role of technology leader. Thanks to Hohenstein, our artificial intelligence is already learning with the world's largest and highest-quality database of 3D body scans. This is an extremely significant advantage for our AI."
