Comparison
Style Scout vs FetchFashion for Finding Clothes
Both take a photo of an outfit and find where to buy the pieces. Here's a fair look at how they differ, using only what each says about itself.
Updated
In short: Both find the clothes in a photo. FetchFashion searches 1,000+ retailers by its own count, works in four languages, isn't limited to Amazon for cheaper picks and offers 5 free searches a day, with paid plans beyond that. Style Scout finds every piece automatically, returns the closest match from any fashion retailer plus a cheaper alternative on Amazon when one is found, marks weaker matches clearly, and lets you share a look with one link — free, with no sign-up needed.

The honest summary
The two do the same core job. FetchFashion is broader: more shops by its own count, four languages and cheaper picks from across its retailers. Style Scout focuses on telling you how good each match is and on sharing what you find, and it's free with no sign-up needed. We haven't measured how accurate either one is, so the fairest test is to run the same photo through both.
