Algorithms Tour by StichFix

Our business model enables unprecedented data science, not only in recommendation systems, but also in human computation, resource management, inventory management, algorithmic fashion design and many other areas. Experimentation and algorithm development is deeply engrained in everything that Stitch Fix does. We’ll describe a few examples in detail as you scroll along.

So what does the data look like? In addition to the rich feedback data we get from our clients, we also receive a great deal of upfront data on both our clothing and our clients. Our buyers and designers capture dimension and style details, and our clients fill out a profile upon signup that’s calibrated to get us the most useful data with the least client effort.
