Layered is an iOS app that builds a digital wardrobe from your selfies rather than requiring you to photograph every item individually. Point your camera at yourself, and the AI reads your outfit to catalog what you own — a radically lower-friction approach to wardrobe digitization that most closet apps get wrong by making it too much work to set up. Once your wardrobe is catalogued, Layered becomes a daily outfit advisor: it recommends combinations from what you already own, generates Pinterest-style lookbooks for new pieces you're considering, and creates travel packing capsules calibrated to destination, weather, and luggage constraints. Cost-per-wear tracking surfaces clothes you're ignoring, making decluttering data-driven rather than intuition-based. Built by indie iOS developer Vadim Drobinin, Layered launched on Product Hunt and immediately hit the top five. It's a freemium app — free to start with paid unlocks — and represents the kind of thoughtful, focused indie product that succeeds by solving one problem better than anyone else rather than trying to be everything.

Luma Agents is a new agentic creative platform from Luma Labs that handles entire creative projects from brief to delivery — spanning text, image, video, and audio simultaneously. Powered by Luma's proprietary "Unified Intelligence" models, the agents can orchestrate multimodal workflows that used to require a team of specialists and weeks of production time. The platform made headlines with a live demo that reproduced a global brand's $15M year-long campaign — localized for multiple countries — in just 40 hours and under $20,000. Early enterprise partners include Publicis Groupe, Serviceplan, Adidas, and Mazda, signaling this is a serious production-grade tool, not a toy. Luma Agents isn't just another wrapper on top of generic models. Its tight vertical integration — from Dream Machine video to its own audio and image models — means the agents can iterate creatively in ways that multi-vendor setups simply can't. This is what the "post-production-stack" future looks like.
Reviewer scorecard
“The core insight — read outfits from selfies instead of making users photograph items — is a genuine UX breakthrough for this category. Every other closet app dies in onboarding. Layered solves that. Solid indie execution from a developer who clearly uses the product.”
“If you're building creative pipelines for agencies or brands, this is the vertical integration story that standalone tools can't match. The unified model stack means less prompt-engineering glue and more coherent output across formats.”
“Selfie-based wardrobe reading sounds elegant but breaks down on layering, partial outfits, and anything not visible in a selfie (jeans, shoes, bags). The AI accuracy for attribute tagging in real-world lighting conditions is almost certainly worse than the demo. Fashion AI has been over-promised for a decade.”
“Enterprise-only with no public pricing is a red flag for anyone who isn't already Publicis Groupe. The $20K/40-hour campaign demo is impressive but cherry-picked — most brand work involves legal review, iteration cycles, and stakeholder approval processes that AI agents still can't handle.”
“Sustainable fashion is a $15B opportunity and AI-powered wardrobe optimization is finally good enough to make a dent in overconsumption. Apps like Layered that show you what you already own and compute cost-per-wear are quietly more consequential than they appear.”
“This is the first credible proof point that AI agents can compress $15M of creative work into $20K. The advertising industry's labor economics are being rewritten in real time. Luma is playing to win the creative stack, not just a feature category.”
“As someone who genuinely wrestles with 'I have nothing to wear' syndrome, this is the app I've wanted for years. The travel capsule generator alone is worth installing — packing for a week trip without overpacking is a real skill gap that AI can fill.”
“For solo creators and small agencies, this could be the great equalizer — if they ever open it up beyond enterprise. The ability to localize a campaign across languages and formats in one agentic run is something I've been manually stitching together for years.”
