# Choosing Products for Virtual Try-On

> Learn how to manage products with Looksy virtual try-on. The app works on all products by default.

## Product Management

**Looksy auto-enables all products by default.** You don't need to manually enable anything—the app works on all product pages immediately after you enable the app embed.

<Note>
  This is a zero-configuration approach. Install the app, enable the embed, and virtual try-on works on all products.
</Note>

### When to Disable Products

Most stores can leave all products enabled. Disable products only if:

1. **Revealing garments** – Lingerie, swimwear, and very revealing clothing may fail to generate results (protection against misuse)
2. **Poor image quality** – Products with very low-quality images produce poor results
3. **Non-fashion items** – Products where visualization doesn't add value

### How to Disable Specific Products

Go to **Products** in your Looksy admin:

1. Find the product you want to disable
2. Toggle it off
3. Save changes

The "Try On" button will no longer appear on that product page.

### Select Specific Products Only

If you prefer to enable try-on on only certain products:

1. Go to **Products** in your Looksy admin
2. Click **Disable All**
3. Enable only the products you want
4. Save changes

<Tip>
  The app uses up to 4 product images per item when generating try-on results. More images give the AI more context.
</Tip>

## What Works with Looksy

Looksy works on **all product types**:

* **Apparel** – Tops, dresses, outerwear, activewear
* **Accessories** – Jewelry, bags, scarves
* **Footwear** – Shoes, boots, sneakers
* **Any fashion item** – The AI adapts to any product

<Check>
  The model delivers realistic results across all categories. Better product images produce better try-on results.
</Check>

## Which Products Benefit Most

Focus virtual try-on on products where customers struggle with visualization:

### High-Impact Categories

* Items with unique cuts or styles
* Products customers haven't seen on real people
* New releases or seasonal collections
* Products with above-average return rates (style-related, not sizing)

### Style vs. Sizing

<Note>
  **Important:** Looksy helps customers visualize **style** (how it looks on them), not sizing (whether it will fit). Always provide size charts and fit descriptions alongside virtual try-on.
</Note>

Virtual try-on reduces **style-related returns** (doesn't look as expected, color doesn't suit, style doesn't match). It doesn't solve sizing issues.

## Product Selection Strategy

### Two Approaches: All Products vs. Selective Enablement

**Approach 1: Enable Everything (Recommended)**

* Fastest setup: Works on all products immediately
* Let customers decide where it's valuable
* Disable only problematic products (revealing items)
* Monitor analytics to see what works

**Approach 2: Start Small, Expand Strategically**

* Test with top 5-10 products first
* Validate results and engagement
* Expand based on data
* Good for risk-averse merchants

Most merchants should use Approach 1. Use Approach 2 only if you want to test first before full rollout.

***

## How to Choose Your First Products (Approach 2)

If you prefer to test with a limited set first, follow this framework:

### Framework: Start with 5 Bestsellers

**Step 1: Identify Your Top 5 Products by Sales Volume**

Use Shopify analytics to find your bestsellers:

1. Go to **Analytics → Reports → Sales by product**
2. Look at last 30-60 days
3. Identify top 5 products by revenue or units sold
4. Prioritize products with:
   * High traffic (product page views)
   * Good product images (clear, multiple angles)
   * Above-average return rates (style-related)

**Why bestsellers?**

* Highest traffic = most customers will see the feature
* Proven demand = conversion lift has bigger revenue impact
* Existing data = easier to measure results

<Check>
  Testing on your top products ensures maximum visibility and measurable impact from day one.
</Check>

***

**Step 2: Test for 1 Week**

Enable virtual try-on on your top 5 products and monitor:

**Key metrics to track:**

* **Try-on engagement rate:** Target 15-25% (customers who click "Try On")
* **Credit usage:** How many credits per day?
* **Customer feedback:** Any comments or support tickets?
* **Early conversion data:** Are try-on users buying?

**What good performance looks like:**

* 15-25% engagement rate
* 10-20 try-ons per day (varies by traffic)
* Positive or neutral customer feedback
* No technical issues

**What poor performance looks like:**

* \< 10% engagement rate
* Very few try-ons despite high traffic
* Complaints about button placement or quality
* Technical errors

***

**Step 3: Expand Based on Data**

After 1 week, decide next steps based on results:

**If engagement > 20%: Expand Aggressively**

* Enable 10-20 more products immediately
* Focus on similar categories (if top products are dresses, add more dresses)
* Or enable all products (fastest path to full rollout)

**If engagement 10-20%: Optimize and Expand**

* Add multiple product angles (up to 4 images per product)
* Test different button text or colors
* Enable 5-10 more products in high-performing categories
* Monitor for another week

**If engagement \< 10%: Investigate Before Expanding**

* Check product image quality
* Verify button is visible (not hidden or too small)
* Test on mobile (70%+ of traffic is mobile)
* Consider better promotion (homepage banner, email)
* Enable 2-3 more products to see if issue is product-specific

<Tip>
  Most issues with low engagement are due to poor visibility (button placement) or lack of awareness, not the virtual try-on technology itself.
</Tip>

### Category Priority Matrix

Not all product categories perform equally. Focus on categories with highest potential impact:

| Category                  | Engagement Potential | Setup Ease | Return Rate Impact             | Priority |
| ------------------------- | -------------------- | ---------- | ------------------------------ | -------- |
| **Dresses**               | High (25-35%)        | Easy       | High (30%+ reduction)          | **1**    |
| **Tops & Blouses**        | High (20-30%)        | Easy       | Medium-High (20-25% reduction) | **1**    |
| **Outerwear**             | Medium-High (18-25%) | Easy       | Medium (15-20% reduction)      | **2**    |
| **Activewear**            | High (22-30%)        | Easy       | Medium-High (20-25% reduction) | **1**    |
| **T-Shirts**              | Medium (15-20%)      | Easy       | Medium (15-20% reduction)      | **2**    |
| **Hoodies & Sweatshirts** | Medium (15-22%)      | Easy       | Medium (15-20% reduction)      | **2**    |
| **Jackets**               | Medium-High (20-25%) | Easy       | Medium (18-22% reduction)      | **2**    |
| **Casual Shirts**         | Medium (18-22%)      | Easy       | Medium (15-20% reduction)      | **2**    |
| **Accessories**           | Low-Medium (10-15%)  | Medium     | Low (5-10% reduction)          | **3**    |
| **Jewelry**               | Low-Medium (8-15%)   | Medium     | Low (5-10% reduction)          | **3**    |
| **Footwear**              | Low-Medium (10-18%)  | Medium     | Low-Medium (10-15% reduction)  | **3**    |

**Priority 1 (Start Here):** Highest engagement and biggest impact on returns
**Priority 2 (Add Next):** Good engagement, solid return reduction
**Priority 3 (Test Later):** Lower engagement, but some benefit

<Note>
  These are averages across Looksy merchants. Your results may vary based on your product photos, traffic, and customer base.
</Note>

### Expansion Timeline Example

**Week 1: Test Phase**

* Enable top 5 bestsellers
* Monitor engagement and usage
* Gather feedback

**Week 2: First Expansion**

* If results are good (> 15% engagement): Enable 10 more products in Priority 1 categories
* If results are mixed (10-15% engagement): Optimize images, enable 5 more products
* If results are poor (\< 10%): Investigate issues, hold on expansion

**Week 3-4: Scale Phase**

* Enable all Priority 1 products (dresses, tops, activewear)
* Add Priority 2 products (outerwear, jackets, casual shirts)
* Consider enabling all products if performance is strong

**Month 2+: Full Rollout**

* Enable all products (or all except revealing items)
* Focus on optimization (better images, promotion)
* Use analytics to identify top performers

***

### Data-Driven Decision Making

**Use analytics to guide expansion:**

1. **Check engagement by product:**
   * Looksy Dashboard → Analytics → Top Products
   * Which products have highest try-on rates?
   * Enable more products in those categories

2. **Monitor credit usage:**
   * Looksy Dashboard → Analytics → Credits
   * How many try-ons per day?
   * Is usage growing or plateauing?

3. **Track conversion impact:**
   * Compare conversion rates: products with try-on vs. without
   * Focus expansion on categories with highest lift

4. **Identify low performers:**
   * Products with \< 5% engagement after 2 weeks
   * Consider disabling or improving product images
   * Or leave enabled (no downside, costs nothing)

<Check>
  Data beats guessing. Let customer behavior guide which products to prioritize.
</Check>

### Disable Revealing Products

If you sell revealing garments:

1. Go to **Products** in admin
2. Find lingerie, swimwear, or very revealing items
3. Disable them individually
4. This prevents generation failures due to misuse protection

**Why disable revealing products?**

* AI model has safeguards against misuse
* Very revealing garments may fail to generate
* Better to disable than have customers see errors

<Warning>
  Swimwear and lingerie may work fine, but very revealing items (sheer, extreme cuts) are more likely to fail. Test first, disable if needed.
</Warning>

## Testing Your Products

After enabling try-on:

1. Visit product pages on your live store
2. Click **"Try On"** and test with your own photo
3. Check that results look realistic
4. Verify the button appears where expected

<Tip>
  The app works on all products out of the box. You're testing the button placement and user experience, not whether the AI works.
</Tip>

## Optimizing by Category

### Track Performance

Use your analytics dashboard to see:

* Which products get the most try-ons
* Which categories drive the most engagement
* Conversion rates by product type

### Scale Based on Data

* Focus promotion on high-engagement categories
* Add new products to collections that perform well
* Consider disabling products with very low engagement (if any)

## Product Image Guidelines

Better images = better results. Optimize your product photos:

### What Helps

* **Higher resolution helps** – More detail for the AI (but not required)
* **Multiple angles** – Up to 4 images per product for better context
* **Detail shots** – Close-ups of texture and material
* **Any background works** – Plain, complex, or busy backgrounds all work

### What the AI Needs

The model works with any images. What helps accuracy:

* Multiple angles (max 4 images)
* Detail shots showing texture
* Clear visibility of unique features

<Check>
  There are no strict requirements. Poor images work but produce lower-quality results. Input quality = output quality.
</Check>
