What we do
Ditto is an AI-powered fashion discovery platform. Upload an outfit photo from anywhere — Instagram, Pinterest, your camera roll — and our computer vision pipeline identifies every clothing item, then surfaces matched products from our retailer network at multiple price points.
We're not another shopping app. We're a discovery engine, built around three principles: real AI (not keyword search), tiered pricing (every budget represented), and creator-first economics (90% commission split for our Founding 50 creators).
How the platform works
- Vision detection — Anthropic Claude Sonnet 4.6, the same model used by enterprise developer tools, identifies each item with bounding boxes, confidence scores, and structured tags (type, color, fit, era, occasion).
- Product matching — Live Rakuten Advertising API queries our approved merchant network for each detected item.
- Tiered dupes — Results sorted into Budget ($0–$40), Mid ($40–$120), and Premium ($120+) tiers automatically.
- Affiliate disclosures — Every shoppable link discloses the affiliate relationship per FTC 16 CFR Part 255 Endorsement Guides.
- Creator economy — Approved creators publish curated looks, earn commission split via Stripe Connect, and access analytics on what's converting.
Production stack
We believe in transparency about how we're built:
- Vision AI — Anthropic Claude Sonnet 4.6 (primary), OpenAI GPT-4o (fallback)
- Affiliate network — Rakuten Advertising (live), additional partners expanding monthly
- Infrastructure — Next.js 15, Supabase Postgres + pgvector, Bull/Redis queues, Hostinger VPS, Vercel edge
- Payments — Stripe (subscription), Stripe Connect (creator payouts)
- Content safety — AI-powered moderation on every upload (nudity, minors, violence, hate-symbols screening) before downstream processing
Trust & transparency
- Honest data. No fake user counters, no synthetic testimonials. The product page shows real Rakuten product matches.
