Item 1. Business
We are an omnichannel e-commerce platform and provider of AI-driven SaaS measurement solutions, including MySizeID and our recently acquired subsidiaries, Naiz Fit, which provides SaaS technology solutions that solve size and fit issues and AI solutions for smarter design through data driven decisions for fashion ecommerce companies, and Orgad, an online retailer operating in the global markets. To date, we have generated almost all our revenue as a third-party seller on Amazon. Our advanced software and solutions assists us in supply chain, identifying products that can drive growth and provides a user-friendly experience and best customer service.
We are currently focused on driving the commercialization of the Naiz Fit technology which, enables shoppers to generate highly accurate measurements of their body to find the accurate fitting apparel by using our Naiz Fit Widget, a simple questionnaire which uses a database collected over the years and allows buyers to know what size to pick when buying online, reducing returns and increasing conversion rates of sellers.
Naiz Fit syncs the user’s measurement data to a sizing model generated with our proprietary Garment Modelling technology for each item sold on the ecommerce, and only presents items for purchase that match their measurements to ensure a correct fit.
We are positioning ourselves as a consolidator of sizing solutions and new digital experience due to new developments for the fashion industry needs. Our other product offerings include First Look Smart Mirror for physical stores and Smart Catalog to empower brand design teams, which are designed to increase end consumer satisfaction, contributing to a sustainable world and reduce operation costs. We also recently launched True Feedback, a Go-To-market solution that extracts data from our Naiz Community mystery shoppers to fine-tune the customer experience offered to fashion buyers, both online and offline.

The aggregate gross proceeds from the exercised of the Exercised Warrants was approximately $4.2 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by us.
January 2023 Financing
On January 10, 2023, we entered into a securities purchase agreement, or the RD Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which we agreed to sell and issue in the RD Offering an aggregate of 162,000 of our shares of common stock, or the RD Shares, and pre-funded warrants, or the Pre-funded Warrants, to purchase up to 279,899 shares of common stock and, in a concurrent private placement, unregistered warrants to purchase up to 883,798 shares of common stock, or the RD Warrants, consisting of Series A warrants, or Series A Warrants, to purchase up to 441,899 shares of common stock and Series B warrants, or Series B Warrants, to purchase up to 441,899 shares of common stock, at an offering price of $3.055 per RD Share and associated Series A and Series B Warrants and an offering price of $3.054 per Pre-funded Warrant and associated Series A and Series B Warrants.

Nasdaq Minimum Bid Price Deficiency
On November 3, 2023, we were notified, or the Notification Letter, by the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications that we are not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), or the Rule, for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market.
The Notification Letter provides that the Company has 180 calendar days, or until May 1, 2024, to regain compliance with the Rule. To regain compliance, the bid price of our common stock must have a closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days. In the event we do not regain compliance by May 1, 2024, we may then be eligible for additional 180 days if we meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period. If we do not qualify for the second compliance period or fail to regain compliance during the second compliance period, then Nasdaq will notify us of its determination to delist our common stock, at which point we will have an opportunity to appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.
Warehouse Fire
On January 2, 2023, Orgad experienced a fire at its warehouse in Israel. We are not aware of any casualties or injuries associated with the fire. We shifted Orgad’s operation to its headquarters. The value of the inventory that was in the warehouse was approximately $640,000. We believe that this incident did not affect the future sales results of Orgad for the year of 2023. The inventory was not insured, we and the lessor signed an agreement to settle the issue in which we paid to the lessor an amount of $50,000 to cover his loss.
Our Solution
Our cloud-based software platform provides highly accurate sizing and measurement with broad applications including the online fashion/apparel industry, logistics and courier services and home DIY. Currently, we are mainly focusing on the e-commerce fashion/apparel industry.

|---|
The following are some select key features of our solutions:
| ● | Integration Capability. We design our solutions to be flexible and configurable, allowing our clients to match their use of our algorithms and software with their specific business processes and workflows. Our platform has been organically developed from a common code base, data structure and user interface, providing a consistent user experience with powerful features that are easily adaptable to our clients’ needs.

All the information is being gathered and stored on our servers where it can be used by retailers; |
| ● | Non-Invasive. In taking measurements using our solution, the smartphone camera is not utilized; instead, the measurements are captured by scanning the smartphone over the consumer’s body or package, thus ensuring greater privacy. |
Our Growth Strategy
We aim to drive revenue primarily through penetration of the U.S., Europe and Latin American markets through a business to business (B2B) model in the verticals we are targeting. We are pursuing the following growth strategies:
| ● | Sign Additional Commercial Agreements with U.S. Retailers. While we are already giving service in the U.S. through our international customers selling there, we are in various stages of discussions with U.S. Tier 1 retailers for the deployment of our size recommendation and measurement technology with a view to entering into additional commercial agreements with the rest of the Naiz Platform solutions. |
| ● | Pursue a Two-Pronged Commercialization Strategy. We are seeking to accelerate adoption of our solutions both through direct agreements with e-commerce websites, we also opened our Partners Program to add a new sales channel. While we seek to directly enter into partnerships with companies selling their own apparel, we also started working with key partners for the fashion industry such as Global-e, Scalapay, Bcome, BigBlue, Analytical Ways, Retail Rocket, Shippy Pro or Connectif. Furthermore, with the release of our FirstLook Smart Mirror, which we are offering to brick and mortar stores to digitize the physical stores, Naiz Fit is now available for online retailers utilizing the Magento, SalesForce, WooCoomerce, Shopify, Lightspeed, PrestaShop, Bitrix and Wix platforms and to brick and mortar stores through GK Software POS solution. |
| ● | Ongoing Investment in our Technology Platform. We continue to invest in building new software capabilities and extending our platform to bring the power of accurate measurement to a broader range of applications. In particular, we seek not only to deliver size recommendations but to provide a robust, end-to-end,artificial intelligence, or AI-driven platform that inspires consumer confidence and drives revenue growth by providing a superior consumer journey to both online and the brick and mortar stores. |
| ● | Grow our database. As the usage of our measurement apps increases, our database of information including user behavior and body measurements generates valuable statistics. Such data can be used in the big data market for targeted advertising and for blind consumer data mining. |
| ● | Identify and acquire synergistic businesses. In order to reduce our time to market and obtain complementary technologies, we are seeking to acquire technologies and businesses that are synergistic to our product offering. We completed an acquisition of Orgad which operates an omnichannel e-commerce platform and Naiz which provides SaaS technology solutions that solve size and fit issues for fashion companies. |
Market Opportunity
The global e-commerce market is expected to total $8.8 trillion in 2024, and the industry is expected to grow significantly in the coming years with no signs of slowing down. Market specialists expect a compound annual growth rate of 15.80% from 2024 to 2029: according to data from Mordor Intelligence, the market is expected to reach $18.81 trillion by 2029. In addition, it is expected that by 2024, 21.2% of total retail sales will happen online. While many sectors have found ways to increase revenue through e-commerce, e-commerce is still plagued by issues that cut into profits and negatively impact the bottom line, such as customer returns, low consumer conversion, and associated restocking and shipping costs.
Fashion/Apparel
Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, an immense shift to digital was recorded, with 85.9% growth vs. pre-pandemic, according to Mastercard, and over 2 billion people worldwide who shop online, according to data from Oberlo. In November 2023, online shoppers broke records with $12.4 billion in spending on Cyber Monday, driving 9.6% year-over-year growth and making the day the biggest online shopping day of all time, according to Adobe Analytics.
In 2021, fashion companies invested between 1.6% and 1.8% of their revenues in technology, according to McKinsey, and are expected to double the investment by 2030 in order to keep up with digital natives and keep a competitive edge. Personalization in e-commerce and hybrid connectivity in brick-and-mortar retail are two key themes in the future of fashtech, according to McKinsey’s 2022 State of Fashion Technology.
In the upcoming years, inflation is expected to impact the fashion world. As prices for goods increase, the challenge will be to inspire confidence in consumers, via different smart digital tools. Brands will need to embrace creative digital tools and new channels to deepen customer relationships, and as McKinsey forecasts in their State of Fashion report for 2023, they will need to execute on priorities such as sustainability and digital acceleration.
The global fashion e-commerce market size is expected to grow from $744.4 billion in 2022 to $821.19 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate of 10.3%. In 2027, the market size is expected to grow to $1,222.32 billion, at a compound annual growth rate of 10.5%, according to BRC.
Based on the importance which shoppers attribute to free shipping - 50% of cart abandonment rate is due to extra shipping costs (Baymard Institute) - the need for fashion retailers to substantiate the optimal size for a customer, thus minimizing returns, has never been more crucial.
As brands move online or significantly expand their online presence, we believe that developing innovative ways to connect with shoppers, both online and offline, has become a top priority.
Naiz Fit
Naiz Fithas a unique value proposition, based on a robust subscription B2B SaaS model, by being the only size and fit solution in the market giving brands an all in-one solution to address not only the ecommerce sizing challenge, but having a solution for each phase in the garment value chain.
Figure 1: Screenshot of the Solution Suite of Naiz Fit Platform
In 2023, we released the Naiz Fit Platform, moving from being a product to a platform with the ability to address many more challenges that fashion companies are facing throughout their whole value chain, increasing the potential contract value of each lead.

Orgad
Orgad is a technology-enabled consumer products company that uses machine learning and data analytics to develop, market and sell products in e-commerce retailing in the global markets. Orgad has been operating as a third-party seller onwww.amazon.comsince 2016. To date, Orgad has generated practically all of its revenue as a third-party seller onwww.amazon.com and only a negligible amount of revenue from operations on other channels. We manage more than 5,000 stock-keeping units (“SKUs”). Product categories include footwear, apparels, and accessories. Our primary strategy is to bring most of our vendors product selections to the customers. We have advanced software that assists us in identifying product gaps so we can keep such products in stock year-round including the entirety of the last quarter (holiday season) of the calendar year.
Business Model
There are three main types of business models on Amazon: wholesale, private label and retail arbitrage. Our business model is wholesale, also known as reselling, which refers to buying products in bulk directly from the brand or manufacturer at a wholesale price and making a profit by selling the product on Amazon. We sell merchandise on Amazon and the sales are fulfilled by Amazon. We pay Amazon fees for allowing us to sell on their platform.
The advantages of selling via a wholesale model:
| ● | Purchase lower unit quantities with wholesale orders than private label products. |
| ● | Selling wholesale is less time intensive and easier to scale than sourcing products via retail arbitrage. |
| ● | More brands will want to work with us because we can provide broader Amazon presence. |
The challenges of selling via a wholesale model:
| ● | Fierce competition on listing for Buy Box on amazon.com (as described below). |
| ● | Developing and maintaining relationships with brand manufacturers. |
Market Description/Opportunities
According to Statista, total retail sales increased 23% to $7.24 trillion in 2023 from $5.57 trillion in 20201. U.S. ecommerce sales increased 18% to $960.15 billion in 2021 from $811.56 billion in 2020.
Amazon accounted for nearly 40% of all e-commerce in the United States and that makes Amazon the biggest ecommerce giant currently in the market.
Among more than 2.5 million active third-party sellers on Amazon in 20233, we believe we have several competitive advantages:
| ● | We have strong operations and sales teams experienced in listing, shipment, advertising, reconciliation and sales. By delivering high quality results and enhancing procedures through the process, our teams are competitive. |
| ● | We believe our software system gives us an advantage over our competition. The system is highly customized to our business model; it collects and processes large amounts of data every day to optimize our operation and sales. Through advanced software, we can identify products that we can lead in various categories. |
| ● | We are focused on three main categories which makes us more competitive in front of our suppliers and logistics. |
Research and Development
Our research and development team are responsible for the research, algorithm, design, development, and testing of all aspects of our measurement platform technology. We invest in these efforts to continuously improve, innovate, and add new features to our solutions.
We incurred research and development expenses of approximately $1.0 million in 2023 and $1.7 million in 2022, relating to the development of its applications and technologies. The decrease from the corresponding period primarily resulted from to a decrease in salaries expenses due to reduced headcount and a decrease in subcontractor expenses.
In 2023, the R&D department experienced significant success in their efforts to improve the performance of their size recommendation system. Through a combination of optimized algorithms and the incorporation of cutting-edge technologies, the team was able to achieve a threefold increase in the system’s speed. This breakthrough not only makes the system one of the fastest and most accurate on the market, but also reduced the operation costs, making it more cost-effective for businesses to use. Additionally, the solution is now highly scalable, allowing it to easily adapt to the needs of businesses of any size. The R&D team is now focused on further improving the system and exploring new applications for the technology.
Proprietary Rights
We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws in the United States and other jurisdictions, as well as contractual protections, to protect our proprietary technology.
As of December 31, 2023, we owned 16 issued patents: six in Europe, four in the U.S., three in Japan two in Canada and one in Israel which expire between January 20, 2033 and August 18, 2036, and we have two additional patent applications in process. As of such date, we do not have any registered trademarks.
We cannot provide any assurance that our proprietary rights with respect to our products will be viable or have value in the future since the validity, enforceability and type of protection of proprietary rights in software-related industries are uncertain and still evolving.
Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of our products is difficult, and while we are unable to determine the extent to which piracy of our software products exists, software piracy can be expected to be a persistent problem. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States, and effective copyright, trademark, trade secret and patent protection may not be available in those jurisdictions. Our means of protecting our proprietary rights may not be adequate to protect us from the infringement or misappropriation of such rights by others.
Further, in recent years, there has been significant litigation in the United States involving patents and other intellectual property rights, particularly in the software and Internet-related industries. We can become subject to intellectual property infringement claims as the number of our competitors grows and our products and services overlap with competitive offerings. These claims, even if not meritorious, could be expensive to defend and could divert management’s attention from operating our business. If we become liable to third parties for infringing their intellectual property rights, we could be required to pay a substantial award of damages and to develop non-infringing technology, obtain a license or cease selling the products that contain the infringing intellectual property. We may be unable to develop non-infringing technology or obtain a license on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.
Government Regulation
We are subject to a number foreign and domestic laws and regulations that involve matters central to our business. These laws and regulations may involve privacy, data protection, intellectual property, or other subjects. Many of the laws and regulations to which we are subject are still evolving and being tested in courts and could be interpreted in ways that could harm our business. In addition, the application and interpretation of these laws and regulations often are uncertain, particularly in the new and rapidly evolving industry in which we operate. Because global laws and regulations have continued to develop and evolve rapidly, it is possible that we, our products, or our platform may not be, or may not have been, compliant with each such applicable law or regulation.
In particular, we are subject to a variety of federal, state and international laws and regulations governing the processing of personal data. Many U.S. states have passed laws requiring notification to data subjects when there is a security breach of personally identifiable data. There are also a number of legislative proposals pending before the U.S. Congress, various state legislative bodies and foreign governments concerning data protection. In addition, data protection laws in Europe and other jurisdictions outside the United States can be more restrictive than those within the United States, and the interpretation and application of these laws are still uncertain and in flux.
For example, the General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, which took effect on May 25, 2018, enhances data protection obligations for entities that process personal data about individuals, including obligations to cooperate with European data protection authorities, implement security measures and keep records of personal data processing activities. Noncompliance with the GDPR can trigger fines equal to the greater of €20 million or 4% of global annual revenue. In addition, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, or CCPA, effective as of January 1, 2020, gives California residents expanded rights to access and require deletion of their personal information, opt out of certain personal information sharing, and receive detailed information about how their personal information is used. The CCPA provides for civil penalties for violations, as well as a private right of action for data breaches, that is expected to increase data breach litigation. Further, failure to comply with the Israeli Privacy Protection Law of 1981, and its regulations, as well as the guidelines of the Israeli Privacy Protection Authority, may expose us to administrative fines, civil claims (including class actions) and in certain cases criminal liability. Current pending legislation may result in a change of the current enforcement measures and sanctions. Given the breadth and depth of changes in data protection obligations, meeting the requirements of GDPR and other applicable laws and regulations has required significant time and resources, including a review of our technology and systems currently in use against the requirements of GDPR and other applicable laws and regulations. We have taken various steps to prepare for complying with GDPR and other applicable laws and regulations however there can be no assurance that these steps are sufficient to assure compliance. Further, additional EU laws and regulations (and member states’ implementations thereof) further govern the protection of individuals and of electronic communications. If our efforts to comply with GDPR or other applicable laws and regulations are not successful, we may be subject to penalties and fines that would adversely impact our business and results of operations, and our ability to use personal data of individuals could be significantly impaired.
Competition
We operate in a highly competitive industry that is characterized by constant change and innovation. Changes in the applications and the programing languages used to develop applications, devices, operating systems, and technology landscape result in evolving customer requirements. Our competitors include True Fit, Fit analytics and 3DLook.
The principal competitive factors in our market include the following:
| ● | High Accuracy Size Recommendations: the highest accuracy and the lowest margin of error by combining patented technology including AI and ML, size chart or spec data, and Naiz Fit property body data measurement and garment modelling technologies; |
| ● | Integration |
| ○ | Fast 4-6 week integration including size chart review, product try-ons and sizing mapping |
| ○ | Easy 1 line of “all included” script implementation for your ecommerce and a regular product feed is all we need to launch Naiz Platform |
| ● | Technical Advantages |
| ○ | Very small library that weighs ±50kb (minimum widget loading time on product page) |
| ○ | Ultra-Fast loading and size recommendation presenting |
| ○ | Restful API option (API integration with any website or app) |
| ● | Optimizations |
| ○ | Adjustments of size charts based on performance through try-on tests, purchase and returns analysis |
| ○ | Widget usage analysis by Brands Specialists and BI teams |
| ○ | Automatic pairing of sizing models with products/collections for an SKU-based size recommendation for each individual customer |
| ● | User Experience |
| ○ | Easy to use interface (10-15 seconds to receive size recommendations) |
| ○ | Option to add/deduct questions to/from widget wizards |
| ○ | Users automatically receive size recommendations on all products after initial usage |
| ● | Product and platform features, architecture, reliability, privacy and security, performance, effectiveness, and supported environments; |
| ● | Product extensibility and ability to integrate with other technology infrastructures; |
| ● | Digital operations expertise; |
| ● | Ease of use of products and platform capabilities included in Naiz Platform; |
| ● | Total cost of ownership; |
| ● | Adherence to industry standards and certifications; |
| ● | Strength of sales and marketing efforts internally led and guaranteeing efficiency on acquisition costs; |
| ● | Brand awareness and reputation boosted by our comprehensive platform focused on fashion; and |
| ● | Focus on customer success with dedicated team |
We believe we generally compete favorably with our competitors on the basis of these factors. We expect competition to increase as other established and emerging companies enter our markets, as customer requirements evolve, and as new products and technologies are introduced. We expect this to be particularly true as size recommendation for online fashion is a big challenge for the whole industry, making it attractive for new companies to join this space.
Many of our competitors have substantially greater financial, technical, and other resources, greater name recognition, larger sales and marketing budgets, broader distribution, and larger and more mature intellectual property portfolios.
Human Capital Management
As of March 9, 2024, we had a total of 25 employees, of which 22 were full-time employees, including 11 in sales and marketing, 4 in technology and development and 10 in administration and finance.
None of our employees are represented by a collective bargaining agreement, nor have we experienced any work stoppage. We consider our relationship with our employees to be good. Our future success depends on our continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified engineers, sales and marketing, account management, and senior management personnel.
We also believe we have built a strong sales team focused on expanding into new markets through the acquisition of Naiz Fit and our current team.
We believe that our future success will depend, in part, on our continued ability to attract, hire and retain qualified personnel. In particular, we depend on the skills, experience and performance of our senior management and research personnel. We compete for qualified personnel with other hi-tech companies, as well as universities and non-profit research institutions.
We provide competitive compensation and benefits programs to help meet the needs of our employees. In addition to salaries, these programs (which vary by country/region and employment classification) include incentive compensation plan, pension, and insurance benefits, paid time off, among others. We also use targeted equity-based grants with vesting conditions to facilitate retention of personnel, particularly for our key employees.
The success of our business is fundamentally connected to the well-being of our people. Accordingly, we implemented an hybrid work policy in which the employees can work from home twice a week.
We consider our employees to be a key factor to our success and we are focused on attracting and retaining the best employees at all levels of our business. Inclusion and diversity is a strategic, business priority. We employ people based on relevant qualifications, demonstrated skills, performance and other job-related factors. We do not tolerate unlawful discrimination related to employment, and strive to ensure that employment decisions related to recruitment, selection, evaluation, compensation, and development, among others, are not influenced by race, color, religion, gender, age, ethnic origin, nationality, sexual orientation, marital status, or disability. Continuous monitoring to ensure pay equity has been a focus in 2023. We have continued to improve gender balance in 2023 with a focus on increasing the representation of women hired as new college graduates. We are committed to creating a trusting environment where all ideas are welcomed and employees feel comfortable and empowered to draw on their unique experiences and backgrounds.
We consider our relations with our employees to be good.
