True Fit is evolving from a static “what size should I buy?” widget into a conversational agent that can handle the nuanced questions shoppers actually ask: comfort, flattering fit, fabric behavior, and edge cases like petite proportions. We also dig into how vertical agents (like True Fit) can accelerate horizontal super-agents via Model Context Protocol (MCP), and why the future of agentic shopping will be built on clean, structured, prioritized proprietary data, not scraped internet sentiment.

Highlights

• True Fit’s specialized size + fit agent (and why it matters now)
• Why 70% of fashion agent questions are about size/fit
• The “Fit Passport”: from form-filling to natural conversation profiling
• What generic agents miss: real-time sales + returns behavior, not just PDPs/reviews
• Vertical vs. horizontal agents, and how True Fit uses MCP as an accelerant
• The unglamorous moat: data cleaning, normalization, canonicalization
• True Fit scale: 80M active users, hundreds of millions of profiles, ~100K brands, ~500 retailers

If agentic commerce is collapsing the funnel, fit is one of the biggest friction points left, and True Fit is making it a first-class agent powered by the kind of data most models will never see.
