Rendered Fits vs Genlook · Last updated July 2026
As featured in Vogue College of Fashion · The Jockey Club Style Awards
Rendered Fits and Genlook are both Shopify-native virtual try-on apps, but they are built for different merchants. Genlook is a free-to-start, usage-priced tool aimed at SMB and early-stage stores testing try-on for the first time. Rendered Fits is built for premium and luxury full-garment fashion, with output tuned for drape-sensitive categories a lower-cost tool isn't optimised for. The difference shows most in output fidelity, category breadth, and price.
| Rendered Fits | Genlook | |
|---|---|---|
| Positioning | Premium / luxury fashion | SMB / early-stage |
| Output fidelity | Tuned for premium catalogues | Entry-level |
| Category breadth | Tailoring, knitwear, outerwear, occasionwear, swimwear | General apparel |
| Pricing | Typically £149–£449/month depending on catalogue and volume | Free (10 try-ons/month) up to $99/month (1,000 generations) |
| Platform | Shopify app | Shopify app, "Built for Shopify" badge |

Genlook is a sensible starting point for a small store testing whether try-on helps conversion at all, and its free tier makes that test essentially free. Rendered Fits is for brands that have outgrown "good enough" and need premium-grade output, a luxury-standard on-page experience, and a measurable effect on returns and conversion — the asymmetry in price reflects an asymmetry in what each tool is built to do, not just a cheaper vs pricier version of the same thing.
Across drape-sensitive categories — tailoring, knitwear, occasionwear, swimwear — the difference in output fidelity is the difference between a shopper trusting what they see and discounting it. For a premium brand a render that looks even slightly synthetic does more harm than no try-on at all, which is why output quality and customer experience, not the monthly fee, are the right basis for the decision. Rendered Fits is built for that standard from your existing product imagery.

RenderedFits is premium-positioned with higher output fidelity across drape-sensitive categories and typically costs £149–£449/month; Genlook is an accessible entry tool for early-stage stores with a free tier and usage-based pricing up to $99/month.
For premium brands, yes — a synthetic-looking render undermines the product, so output realism and finish justify the difference. Early-stage value stores may prefer an entry tool like Genlook.
Small or early-stage stores that want to test whether try-on affects conversion at minimal cost, before investing in premium-grade output. Genlook's free tier makes that test essentially free.
