S5 E29: Nick Clayton, Savitude

Nick Clayton has been into tech most of life. Outside of tech, he loves a good strategy game or board game - in face, he met his fiancé playing these types of games. He is an avid Magic the Gathering player, and has been enjoying the game for over 20 years. When I asked the difference between Magic and Dungeons and Dragons, he notes that DND is a role playing game and more about telling a story, while Magic is more about strategy and mechanics. He also enjoys spending time with friends and family, and cooking a good meal with lots of flavors.

Nick and his co-founders followed the data, and learned that there were a large number of people in the population have a hard time finding clothes... because clothes aren't produced in their body shape. After iterating on solutions around education and recommendation engines, they decided to move upstream into the designer's process.

This is the creation story of Savitude.
