#2We just launched yesterday and welcome feedback.
Kip works best in NYC right now – search is still VERY buggy :D The more you use it, the better our search gets!
You can also create looks with snaps, emojis, stickers, etc.

We're starting with clothes and accessories – most people still prefer shopping offline for clothing.
We use image recognition and scrape items from social media, partner databases and crowdsourcing.
Also testing with Beta users to snap what they're wearing and let them tag semantically ("night out","office","summer wear", "goth").

Great. Really great. Promoting local shopping is probably the next big thing on the internet. I think what you're doing is very valuable.

Yeah, and even for non-clothing things, you might be able to make a really cool system that retailers can sign up for to list their inventory with you, so that people have an awesome online way to find things they'd otherwise just buy on Amazon in a brick and mortar store, they can get to today.
