<ProseSection label="03 — Sharing" title="Sharing, with and without a discount">
Both apps let shoppers share their try-on. The difference is what the share is for.

Antla makes it the core mechanic: after a try-on, a coupon appears in exchange for posting the result on WhatsApp, Facebook, or wherever the shopper's friends are. Every try-on can become user-generated content and a burst of organic reach. The costs are structural rather than hidden: a discount per share, and an ask that puts the customer's photo in public.

### How Genlook handles it

Genlook includes share links, but nothing is paid for them and nothing depends on them. The try-on stays private by default, the flow is tuned toward add-to-cart, and the email ask lands during the try-on rather than after a social post.

Which model fits is a real decision, not a trick question. If user-generated content drives your acquisition and coupons sit fine with your brand, Antla's loop is built for exactly that. If you want the try-on to end in a cart and a contact you can follow up with, that is the lane Genlook is built for.

<Faq label="07 — FAQ" title="Questions, answered.">
  <FaqItem question="Is Genlook really free to start?">
    Yes. The free plan lets you install Genlook, run try-ons on your own products, and see the effect on conversion
    before paying. Antla has no free tier: paid plans start at $19.99 per month, with a 7-day trial.
  </FaqItem>
  <FaqItem question="Can I compare Genlook and Antla before deciding?">
    Yes. Duplicate your theme, enable Genlook's embed on the preview, and compare it against Antla on your live theme.
    The free plan makes the test free.
  </FaqItem>
  <FaqItem question="How do I switch from Antla to Genlook?">
    Install Genlook from the App Store, then in your Shopify theme editor toggle Antla's app embed off and Genlook's on.
    The move takes about two minutes and touches no theme code.
  </FaqItem>
  <FaqItem question="Do I need new product photos?">
    No. Genlook works with your catalog as it is. Ghost-mannequin shots and flat lays render best, but photos on models
    work well too.
  </FaqItem>
  <FaqItem question="Will the widget slow my product pages?">
    No. Genlook loads after your page renders and adds nothing to your theme code, so your Core Web Vitals stay where
    they are.
