Frequently Asked Questions
At the time of scanning, we capture your photos and depth information, and we process this information to create a 3 dimensional model. Once the 3D model is created, all photos and depth information is delated from our servers.
We do not store your pictures. Once the 3D model is generated and processed we remove all the pictures from our systems and the 3D model remains only on your phone.
It’s highly unlikely for your 3D model or any other data would be hacked. In the worst case scenario if your 3D model is hacked from your phone, a face not attached to the 3D model. Therefore, it is not possible to connect that 3D model with you – unless you have prominent tattoos which can connect the 3D model to yourself.

Not yet. We are developing the technology to measure height.
There is a very well documented problem – more than 80% of British women wear a wrong size bra. We are trying to change this and therefore rather than calling this as a project, we would like to call this a Movement.
We call it – fit me a bra.
I travelled from UK to USA for work every month. On one of my trips I purchased garments for my wife. On returning to UK, my wife found that the garments did not fit her so on my next trip, I bought more clothes with different sizes but of a different brand. Once again, those garments did not fit her.
Both of us wondered why the garments of different sizes did not fit her.
Since then, we have carried out a small-scale market research and we also spoke to more than 100 men and women across different continents (UK, USA, India and Australia) and have found that close to 100% of the people surveyed were not sure of their clothes sizes across different brands and lacked confidence of ordering clothes online. During our research we have found that fashion industry is an unregulated industry and there are no standards for sizing or garments.
We set out in 2019 to create an app for everyday consumers to empower their lives and to improve their shopping experience.
Why is this movement important to us and everyone else in the world?
Wearing a wrong size bra is associated with significant health issues for women and there are associated environmental issues. We like to solve both the issues with one app.
An ill-fitting bra that doesn’t give the right support can also lead to breast skin damage – usually seen as stretch marks, caused by stretching the skin beyond its recovery point.
Additionally, women can suffer from
- shoulder pain,
- neck pain,
- back pain
- bad posture
- rubbing and chafing leading to abrasion
According to an article by Portsmouth University, ill-fitting bras can cause permanent changes to the body, such as deep grooves in the shoulders caused by pressure from the bra shoulder straps. Ill-fitting bras have even been associated with a desire for breast reduction surgery. In a study that assessed the bra fit of women wanting breast reduction surgery, all were wearing an ill-fitting bra.
The lack of breast support and the difficulty in finding a well-fitting bra has also been linked to a reluctance to exercise, with obvious long-term consequences.
Research has shown that a lack of breast support often leads to breast pain, which is reported by 50% of women.
We are hoping to complete our research in near future and connect body sizes with the garment sizes and we should be able to provide not only your body measurements, but we would be able to suggest garments sizes according to your body dimensions.
