Presize
Smartphone body-scanning size recommendations for fashion e-commerce, now inside Meta.
Acquired — still operating
Acquired in full by Meta in April 2022 for its virtual fitting and AR commerce work; the standalone product was absorbed and is no longer offered.
About
Presize was a Munich-based fashion-tech startup founded in 2019 that let shoppers get accurate size recommendations by recording a short smartphone video of themselves turning around, fully clothed. A deep learning pipeline built a 3D body model from the clip and matched measurements against partner sizing charts, fits, and sewing patterns, with the size persisting across integrated web shops.
In April 2022 Meta acquired Presize in full to strengthen its virtual fitting and AR commerce work, and the standalone product was absorbed. The entry is kept for reference as an important chapter in virtual sizing history.
What it can do
- Smartphone video body scanning
- 3D human body modeling
