ThriftUp

ThriftUp is a style-learning feed for secondhand fashion. Swipe through a vertical feed of preloved clothing. Swipe right on what you like and the feed learns your taste — only your saves shape it, nothing else is inferred. No account, no sign-up, no ads. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT Under the feed is a vision model trained on roughly 135,000 complete outfits across 27 styles. It learns what goes TOGETHER, not just what looks similar — so it can suggest a bottom and shoes for a top you saved, and a photo search returns pieces that match your look rather than copies of it. FIND IT YOUR WAY • Swipe — save what you like, and the feed follows your taste • Ask — "baggy black jeans under 30", or "something to wear on top" • Photograph — attach a photo of a garment and find pieces that match it • Combine — outfit cards build complete looks around items you saved • Save — everything you like in one place, with your sizes always applied BUY WHERE THE ITEM LIVES ThriftUp aggregates public listings from secondhand marketplaces and links every item back to its original listing. You buy from the seller on that marketplace, under its own protection and terms. ThriftUp never handles the payment and never sells anything itself. PRIVACY No accounts. No advertising. No tracking across other apps. Your device is the only thing the app remembers, and you can have that erased any time — info@thrift-up.com. Built in Rotterdam.

Verdict
MILE and ThriftUp are too close to call on the numbers: across 5 compared parameters — price, ads, in-app purchases and device support among them — neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
