Inspiration
Shopping online can be overwhelming: from conflicting trends to uncertainty about fit, style, or compatibility. The avalanche of e-commerce sites has further compounded this problem. We wanted to create an AI assistant that gives users confidence-backed, curated fashion and lifestyle recommendations, transforming data, trends, and visuals into actionable choices.
What it does
Cartivo analyses videos, trends, and research in real-time to generate confidence-scored, compatible bundles. Users can explore outfits, verify trends, track style evolution across scenes, collaborate with teams on a visual board, and even export PDF reports of curated bundles. It’s interactive, reliable, and personalised. No more visiting multiple e-commerce sites to source the best deals and compare options. With Carvito, you have an autonomous agent that does this for you.
How we built it
We combined:
- Cartivo AI engine for compatibility scoring and bundle generation
- You.com API for live trend verification and citation-backed insights
- Perfect Corp API for visual fit and style validation
- Miro API for collaborative, real-time bundle planning
- DeepGram Autonomous voice execution agent
- Postgres UI for UI components (Cards, Charts, MultiSelect, etc.)
- Foxit PDF API for exporting sharable reports
- Sanity CMS to manage structured content and product data
- Figma Make UI and wireframes
- Replit AI to build the web app
- KiloCode to accelerate development
We orchestrated these services to work in real time, merging AI reasoning with structured content and multi-user collaboration.
Challenges we ran into
- Integrating multiple APIs while maintaining real-time updates and low latency
- Building a narrative-aware video analysis pipeline for style evolution
- Mapping complex AI insights into simple, intuitive visual widgets for Miro
- Ensuring confidence scores were meaningful and easy to interpret
Accomplishments that we're proud of
- Fully interactive, multi-user Miro integration for collaborative outfit planning
- Real-time, evidence-backed recommendations using You.com insights
- StoryLens video analysis to track style evolution and key moments
- Confidence Index™ system that merges AI compatibility, visual fit, and trend data
- A hackathon-ready demo that’s visually compelling, technically robust, and fully functional
What we learned
- Combining AI reasoning with real-time web data and structured content creates trustworthy and actionable recommendations
- Multi-user collaboration requires careful handling of events, latency, and updates
- Users value context-aware insights (e.g., narrative-driven fashion trends) more than static suggestions
- Integrating multiple APIs can produce powerful, cross-domain solutions if orchestrated carefully
What's next for Cartivo
- Expand support for more video platforms and influencer content to improve trend detection
- Add motion-based wearability scoring for dynamic outfit recommendations
- Enhance Miro integration with gamified bundle workshops
- Launch a consumer-facing app for individual shoppers while keeping team collaboration features
- Explore AI-generated styling suggestions for lifestyle products beyond fashion
