While there's clear interest in your idea, the market is saturated with similar offerings. To succeed, your product needs to stand out by offering something unique that competitors aren't providing. The challenge here isn’t whether there’s demand, but how you can capture attention and keep it.
Should You Build It?
Not before thinking deeply about differentiation.
Your are here
You're entering a competitive landscape with your online made-to-measure women's tailoring shop. The good news is there's clearly interest in custom fit clothing, as evidenced by the 11 similar products we found, putting you in a highly competitive terrain. The medium engagement (average of 4 comments) suggests there is room to break through the noise, and focusing on what users are talking about is critical for your success. Your concept of using AI for measurements is aligned with some market trends. The challenge, however, lies in differentiating yourself and capturing attention in a crowded market where users are specifically interested in easy to use tools to simplify online shopping and reduce returns.
Recommendations
- Given the competitive landscape, start by thoroughly analyzing existing made-to-measure services and online sizing tools. Focus on identifying their shortcomings, specifically in user experience, AI accuracy, or design options. The "Find My Size" launch on Product Hunt, for example, received positive feedback, but also acknowledged bugs and the need for improved personalization. Use their user feedback as a starting point.
- Instead of directly competing with established players, consider niching down. Focus on a specific segment of professional women (e.g., lawyers, tech executives) or a particular style (e.g., minimalist, avant-garde). This will allow you to tailor your designs, marketing, and AI algorithms to their unique needs and preferences, reducing your target market to make it more manageable in an extremely competitive environment.
- Your AI-powered measurement tool is a key differentiator. Invest heavily in its accuracy and user-friendliness. Offer a guarantee or a clear return policy to address potential customer concerns about online measurements. Consider implementing a feature that remembers fits for personalization, similar to the suggestions received by "Find My Size."
- Develop a strong brand identity and marketing message that highlights your unique value proposition. Are you offering superior comfort, more contemporary designs, or a more accessible price point? Clearly communicate this to your target audience through your website, social media, and content marketing. Given that a similar product ("OutfitHuntr.com") received positive feedback for personalized recommendations based on body type, consider integrating this into your marketing strategy.
- Prioritize building a community around your brand. Encourage early adopters to share their experiences and provide feedback. Use this feedback to iterate quickly and improve your product and service. Offer exclusive benefits to early adopters to incentivize participation and build loyalty.
- Given the price point (starting at 550€), focus on high-quality materials and construction. Clearly communicate the value proposition to justify the price. Consider offering a range of price points to cater to different budgets. Be aware that users of similar tailor-made services have expressed interest in t-shirt tailoring at lower price points, which could serve as a benchmark for accessible pricing.
- Address potential criticisms upfront. In the similar product analysis, users criticized services with poor English communication skills. Ensure your customer service is top-notch and responsive. Also, emphasize the use of dedicated tailors (if applicable) to avoid comparisons with less skilled alternatives like dry cleaners.
Questions
- How will you ensure the AI measurement tool is accessible and inclusive for women of all body types and sizes, considering potential biases in algorithms trained on limited datasets?
- What specific comfort features will you integrate into your designs to differentiate yourself from traditional tailoring, and how will you communicate these benefits effectively to your target audience?
- Given the competitive landscape and the importance of brand building, what's your plan for managing customer acquisition costs, and what metrics will you track to measure the effectiveness of your marketing campaigns?

The maximum is +1, which means all comments (across all similar products) were positive, expressed a willingness to use & buy said product. The minimum is -1 and it means the exact opposite.
The y-axis captures the strength of the signal, i.e. how many people commented and how does this rank against other products in this category.
The maximum is +1, which means these products were the most liked, upvoted and talked about launches recently. The minimum is 0, meaning zero engagement or feedback was received.
The sizes of the product dots are determined by the relevance to your idea, where 10 is the maximum.
Your idea is the big blueish dot, which should lie somewhere in the polygon defined by these products. It can be off-center because we use custom weighting to summarize these metrics.
