ONYOU ALTERNATIVE
Genlook vs. OnYou
OnYou bundles AI try-on with a shopping assistant and size recommendations. Genlook puts everything into the try-on itself: speed, languages and a flow tuned for add-to-cart. Pricing is nearly identical, so here is what actually differs.

03 — The real difference
More features, or more depth
OnYou, built by the team at Tolstoy, is a bundle: photo-based try-on, an AI assistant that chats with shoppers, size recommendations and upsell tools in one app. If you want one install to cover several jobs on the product page, that is a reasonable pitch, and its pricing sits within a dollar of Genlook's at every entry tier.
The question is where depth matters. A chatbot answers questions a shopper thinks to ask. The try-on answers the one they rarely type: "would this actually look good on me?"
How Genlook handles it
Genlook spends its entire budget on that one answer. The flow from button to result is A/B tested against add-to-cart rate, generations land in 9.3 seconds median, and the widget renders in the shopper's own language, more than 50 covered, where OnYou ships in English. Around the core sit the pieces that turn try-ons into revenue you can trace: configurable email capture, Klaviyo and Shopify Flow integrations, and funnel analytics from impression to add-to-cart.
The public track record is part of the comparison too: Genlook holds 5.0 stars with the Built for Shopify badge, while OnYou sits at 3.6 stars without it. Both apps are young; the reviews are worth reading either way.
04 — In practice
What Genlook is tuned for.
Add-to-cart

07 — FAQ
Questions, answered.
Pricing looks the same. What actually differs?↓
The core try-on plans are within a dollar of each other, and both apps capture emails. The differences are around the edges: Genlook renders in 50+ languages, integrates with Klaviyo and Shopify Flow, charges less per extra try-on, and carries a 5.0 rating with the Built for Shopify badge. OnYou adds a chat assistant and size recommendations that Genlook does not have.
Does Genlook have a shopping assistant like OnYou?↓
No, by design. Genlook focuses on the visual moment: the shopper sees the garment on themselves and decides. If a product-page chatbot is a priority for your store, OnYou bundles one; Genlook keeps the widget focused on the try-on.
Does Genlook recommend sizes?↓
Not yet. An AI size chart is coming. Today Genlook answers the "how does it look?" question; OnYou includes measurement-based size recommendations alongside its try-on.
Can I compare Genlook and OnYou before deciding?↓
Yes. Duplicate your theme, enable Genlook's embed on the preview, and compare it against OnYou on your live theme. Both free plans make the test free.
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.
