Pictr.ai is a visual search platform for shoppers and retailers, available on the web and through an API. Shoppers can upload a selfie, screenshot, photo, or other image to find products with a similar look. Search considers mood, palette, silhouette, and aesthetic as well as pixels; if an exact match is unavailable, results can reflect a similar style, palette, or vibe. Shopper tools include Shop by Photo, a five-question Style Quiz, daily-updated Trending Now, and shareable Mood Boards. The shopper experience is free and requires no account. Retailers supply product images, names, prices, and URLs, then can embed a widget in Shopify, WooCommerce, or custom HTML storefronts using a script tag. The widget adapts to store colors and fonts, while analytics show searched styles and which discoveries lead to purchases. Retailer plans range from Free at $0/month to Scale at $79/month. Paid plans include a 14-day free trial without a credit card. Free, Starter, and Growth automatically upgrade when their stated limits are reached.
