Visual product search platform
Slyce (
The App represents the long awaited fulfillment of the visual shopping 'snap and buy' experience whereby consumers can snap a picture of a physical product and be provided with the best matching items from 6-7 of the largest big box retailers. Items can then be purchased with 1-tap. Pounce is the first App on the market able to facilitate visual product search and 1-Tap purchasing across fashion, home decor, hardware, consumer electronics, toys and several other categories via multiple brands and retailers
CEO at Slyce, Mark Elfenbein, said of the announcement, "Up to 50% of search is expected to be visually based in the next five years and Slyce has positioned itself as a leading visual search platform. We're able to help the largest brands and retailers connect with their customers, wherever they are, through state of the art image recognition technology and infrastructure. With Pounce, we're incredibly excited to be able to offer this real-world visual shopping experience directly to consumers."
As well as real-world, 3D items, Pounce users are also able to snap images of 2D print ads, billboards and catalogues. Once an image is captured, they will instantly be provided with exact or close-matching products from a host of leading retailers. These items are then able to be purchased seamlessly, at the moment of impulse, directly from the retailer via Pounce's proprietary one-click checkout technology.
Slyce Chief Product Officer Avital Yachin said of the launch, "Through the development work we've carried out on the original Pounce App, including the integration of the Slyce visual search platform, Pounce now has an incredible depth of functionality that we believe finally starts to fulfill the promise of visual search for consumers. The possibility of snapping ANY product in the real-world and receiving a purchasable result has long been talked about but, until now, hasn't been achievable. Without wanting to overstate the potential, Pounce literally intends to make the whole world shop-able."
