What is Antla?

How virtual try-on works and what you set up.

Aaron From Antla·September 30, 2026

Antla is a Shopify app that lets shoppers upload a photo and see themselves wearing your products. You set up Funnels, turn on a storefront, and Antla generates the look. Email, share, and discount follow-ups are optional.

Why merchants use it

Shoppers who see a product on themselves buy with more confidence. Try On sits on the product page so visitors can check fit and style before they add to cart.

Typical outcomes:

  • A clear Try On call to action on eligible products

  • Fewer “will this look good on me?” drop-offs

  • Shareable results that travel beyond the store

  • Optional email capture and discounts tied to the try-on

How it works

You configure Funnels in the Antla admin. Each Funnel sets the look style, the generation model, and which products are eligible. Products in a Funnel are tagged antla_in_funnel_<id> so the storefront knows when to show Try On.

A shopper opens an eligible product, taps Try On, uploads a photo, waits for the result, then continues shopping. Email, share, and discount steps run only if you turned them on.

What shoppers experience

  1. They open a product that belongs to an active Funnel.

  2. They see Try On when that surface is enabled and the shop has credits.

  3. They upload a photo. Antla generates a look with the Funnel’s model.

  4. They review the result and can share, leave an email, or take a discount if you enabled those steps.
