Changelog
What’s new
A menu at the side, and credits for friends
- On a phone the menu is a bar at the bottom, with Scan in the middle, and your credits stay at the top. On a computer the menu stays at the top, with More as three dots.
- More has Settings, your colours, What’s new, Help, Feedback and the policies, and you can write to us at swagai.app@gmail.com.
- Invite friends from Earn credits: 10 credits for every friend who makes an account with your link.
- A new account ends its first steps with its first scan, and the plans are three cards, Free first.
- Saying No to a best match first asks whether it was close.
- Your scan history is shorter, folds away, and each scan has a drawing of what it found.
- A new typeface across the site.
A new start, and Settings at the side
- Results show only shops. Social media pages and sites that copy them are gone from every scan, and Google’s own filter for explicit pictures is on for every search.
- After a scan, Next at the foot of the screen takes you from piece to piece, and each piece says how many more options it has.
- “Did we get it right?” takes your own words too, and pressing an answer again takes it back.
- A new account starts with its birthday, then its picture and tag, two questions and the plans, one screen at a time.
- Settings has a list down the side, with search, and opens one section at a time.
- On the home page your wishlists and Inspiration come first, and your stats fold into one line.
A quicker yes to emails
- Saying yes to emails is quicker: a shorter question at sign-up, right above the Terms box, and a card on your home page once you’re signed in.
- A free account can also get two tips in its first weeks, and a note about the scans it has after three weeks away.
Emails, if you say yes
- You can now say yes to emails from swag.ai, when you sign up, after a scan or in Settings. Nothing you use on the site depends on it, and every email leaves in one click.
- They come in swag.ai’s own look: the pieces you saved with each shop’s photo, and a price drop with both prices marked ~, the way the site shows a price from a search.
- On a free account, the question about emails now opens a moment after some scans. Not now brings it back in a couple of days; Don’t ask me again ends it. The plans that open after every few scans have Don’t show this again too.
Everyday shops, one part of a picture, and answers that count
- Every card of clothes or shoes can now show similar pieces from everyday shops like Zara, H&M, COS and Uniqlo, in a row of their own.
- Mark one part of a picture before you scan it, and only that part is searched. It costs 10 credits, like a scan.
- When you answer “Did we get it right?”, it counts: the next time that picture is scanned, a listing you said was wrong won’t come first, and one you said was right will. After a No you can say what was off, and mark another link on the card as the one.
- The best match is bigger on its card, and a shop’s search or category page no longer comes first when a product’s own page is there.
- A scan you make on the front page before you have an account now uses 10 credits when you open it on your account.
Emails you can say yes to, and a question before cancelling
- A scan you cancel now uses its 10 credits, so Cancel scan asks first. Tick Don’t show this again to stop that; Settings turns it back on.
- If you say yes, we can email you a welcome, when a friend is waiting, about scans you have left or have back and what your plan has, about pieces you saved and about what’s new: at most once a week, and one click to leave. You choose in Settings.
Max
- A third plan: everything Pro has, with 500 credits every week, 50 scans. $25.99 a month, or $249.99 a year.
- Max's small extras over Pro: up to 200 wishlists, your last 200 scans kept to open again, and a gold ring round your profile picture.
- Change plan in Settings: move between Pro and Max, monthly and yearly, and Stripe works out the difference for the time left. On Pro, Upgrade at the top leads to Max.
Pro by the year
- Pay for Pro once a year: $95.99, which is $8 a month and $23.89 less than twelve months of paying monthly. Upgrade opens on Yearly, and monthly is still there.
- The credits are the same either way: 150 every week.
- Settings shows what you pay, by the month or by the year, and when Pro renews.
Wishes from any shop, a scan history, and your tag
- Add a wish from any shop: paste the link, and its name and picture come in. Edit a wish too: its name, a star for the one you want most, a note, how many, and Received as a gift.
- The rows on a result card fold, so a long card is short, and they stay as you left them.
- Share a scan, a wishlist or a wish, each with its links.
- Before anything is deleted, we ask. Tick Don’t ask me again to stop that; Settings turns it back on.
- New accounts choose a tag, the name friends add you by. Change your picture, name and tag from your profile: the name once a week, the tag once a month.
- Post a scan with a swag. bar under it, choosing which listing each piece shows.
- Home takes you back to the drop zone after a scan, and the menu is easier to find your way around.
- Pro: your recent scans are a history you can clear, and the same picture scanned again replaces its older entry. Quiz your month so far whenever you like.
- Free shows the best match and three more links a piece, with the rest locked. The plans show right on the scan page when your credits run out.
- A warning when you are running low on scans, from two left.
Recent scans, your month as a quiz, and a safer feed
- Pro: your recent scans are on the scan page. A scan opens again whole, picture and all, for a day; after that each piece and its first two shop links stay there.
- Pro: when a month ends, a short quiz about it, then your month in numbers to keep or share. It asks once; Take the quiz is always under your stats.
- Free accounts have Upgrade at the top, with everything Pro adds.
- Settings opens from your profile picture, and your subscription is in it. FAQ took its place at the top, with the tour as questions under Getting started.
- Three questions after you sign up instead of six: your gender, your country and your sizes, each one you can skip. Shoe sizes follow your answer.
- New scan sits in the middle under your picture, beside "Wrong garment? Mark the right one", and the pieces of a scan are listed above their cards.
- The feed is checked before anything goes up: words that attack people aren’t saved, and pictures with nudity or violence wait for a moderator. The Community Guidelines say how.
- Report or block an account, or share it, from its page.
- Anything you share carries a swag.ai card, and moving between pages glides.
Cancel a scan, and New scan
- Cancel scan, at the top while a scan runs, stops it. Your picture stays chosen, so you can run it again.
- New scan sits at the top of your results, and follows you at the bottom of the screen as you scroll down them.
White by default
- The whole site is white now: white pages, grey bubbles, rounder cards and soft shadows, with crimson kept for the logo and the main button on each page. Clothes and shop photos sit on white or grey, so their colours look as they are.
- Pro: the look the site had until now is Classic, and you can choose it in Settings beside Dark.
Blocking, and scans that start every time
- Block someone from their post, their comment or your friends page. Neither of you sees the other’s posts, comments or lists any more, a friendship between you ends, and they aren’t told. Settings lists who you blocked, with Unblock.
- A picture you pick is kept as it was picked, so a scan no longer fails before it starts when your phone moves or changes the file.
- Two quick taps on Run scan start one scan, not two.
What the look costs, and secondhand
- Over your results, what the whole look costs at the best matches, and with the cheaper picks when they are cheaper. Counted from the prices the search found, in one currency, and only when at least two pieces have one.
- Every piece has a Secondhand row for resale listings the rest of its card doesn’t show, with how much less they cost.
- On a phone, Back no longer covers the line above your results.
What your friends open, and your credits
- Turn on “Show friends what I open to buy” in Settings, and a piece you open with Buy shows on your friends’ feeds. It’s off unless you turn it on.
- A notice at the bottom of the page tells you when you have used most of your credits, and when they reset.
- Pro: your month on swag.ai, on the scan page, with a Share button.
- Pro: Inspiration, the pieces people open and save most, counted without names.
- Pro: the nightly price check now shows cheaper lookalikes it finds for a wish.
Out of your way
- The front page is shorter, and the kinds of piece swag.ai looks for slide past on their own. Press Pause to stop them.
- The header shows the plan you are on.
- The cookie notice moves out of the way while it would cover the place you drop a picture, and comes back when you scroll.
- A shoe size saved before there were men’s and women’s sizes asks to be chosen again, so it can show its EU size.
- Pro scans keep going when swag.ai is busy: free scans pause first.
- A saved piece’s nightly price check searches the country it was found in, even after you choose another country.
Scans that finish, and Settings
- A piece whose search doesn’t finish no longer stops the whole scan: every other piece is shown, the piece says so, and the scan is free.
- View all on a piece goes to its card further down the results.
- Account is called Settings now, with your sections at the top.
- Why not just use Google Lens? says what swag.ai does that Lens leaves to you.
- Your wishlist in numbers and your stats come with Pro.
More with Pro
- Pro shows more of every search: up to six options and six with a price for each piece, three and three on Free.
- Pro can switch the site to Dark colours in Settings.
- A Pro ring round your profile picture.
- The plans now open over the page where you need them, and Manage subscription compares them like Pricing.
A shorter front page, and questions in one place
- The front page is shorter, and every question we answer is on the new Questions page, in groups.
- Pricing shows the two plans side by side: what each one has, and what Free doesn’t.
- After a scan, Back takes you to a new picture, and so does your browser’s back button.
- A wishlist can have a description and a banner, both optional. A free account has one wishlist.
- The cookie notice has two buttons. Both keep only the cookies swag.ai needs.
Your stats, on Pro
- Pro shows your own stats on the scan page: your scans, the credits you have used, the pieces found and matched, your wishes and which got cheaper, your lists and your friends.
- Pro makes up to 50 wishlists.
Five free scans a month
- A free account gets 50 credits every month, enough for 5 scans. It was 1.
- If you already have a free account, your 50 credits are there now.
Pro is on sale
- Pro is $9.99 a month for 150 credits every week, so 15 scans a week, with nightly price checks on your saved items.
- Upgrade in one click from the pricing page, Manage subscription or the message you see when your credits run out. A discount code goes in at checkout.
- Cancel on Manage subscription whenever you like. Pro stays until the end of the month you paid for, and Keep Pro undoes it until then.
Try a scan before you make an account
- Scan a picture on the front page without an account: drop, paste or choose it, and you see every piece we found and how many shops sell it.
- Create a free account or sign in, and the whole scan opens, with the shops, names and prices. It costs no credits.
- When the day’s free scans are used, create an account or sign in with your email in the same tab, and the picture you picked is ready on the scan page.
Your country, and shoe sizes in EU too
- Choose the country you shop from, in the questions after sign-up or in Settings. Your next scan searches as that country, and shops with its own web address come first.
- Shoe sizes are men’s or women’s US sizes, each shown with its EU size.
More depth, and two new lines on every card
- A scan drawn in the front page’s first screen, sections laid over one another like sheets, and cards that lean towards your pointer.
- Did we get it right? Under every best match, answer yes or no. You can change your answer.
- Where the best match’s price sits among the prices on its card: the lowest of them, or how many are lower.
- This page.
Open to everyone
- Anyone can make an account and scan a picture, with 5 scans free every month.
- The waitlist closed. An account made from an address on it still gets the 30 credits it promised.
The scan shows its work
- While a picture is scanned, the steps show on it: every piece found, then each piece’s search, with how many results were checked and how many kept.
- The picture you scanned is shown whole, beside the pieces found in it.
- Only shops’ pages are kept: song covers, magazines, news and wallpapers are left out.
- When no logo can be read, the brand most of the shops name comes first.
Wishlists you shape
- Every heart opens Save to a wishlist: save into any list, move a save, or take it back out.

- Every wish shows the shop’s own photo of the product.
- Friends can like what is in the lists you share with them. You see how many, not who.
- The feed shows posts and your friends’ new wishes together.
Uploads that go through
- Photos and screenshots from a phone that sometimes failed to upload now go through.
- A big photo is made smaller in your browser before it is sent, and when something goes wrong the page says what in plain words.
- The picture you choose is shown whole before you scan it, never cropped.
Lists, friends and your account
- Several wishlists, and friends you add by their name on swag.ai. Friends see only the lists you share with them, never the pictures you scanned.
- A page for your answers and your data, called Settings since 17 October: download a copy of your data, or delete your account and everything in it.
- A few questions after you sign up. Your sizes are then shown beside every shop link.
Every piece, and the ones with a price
- Accessories are found by kind, from caps to glasses and belts, each its own search. Socks are left out.
- After the options, every card has up to three more listings with a price.
