gikae
A free weather app that answers what to wear. Every morning it sends today’s outfit instead of a forecast, and learns how cold you run.

What it does.
A forecast gives numbers. gikae turns them into one decision: what to put on this morning.
Today’s outfit, every morning
A push at the time you pick, with outerwear, top, bottom and accessories for the day.
Reads the whole day
It looks at the hours you are out, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.: a coat in the morning, off by noon.
Learns how you feel
One tap, too cold, just right or too hot, and the next outfit adjusts to you.
The rest of the weather
Umbrella, snow, a big day-night swing, wind, UV and fine dust, on the home screen and Apple Watch. No sign-in, no ads.
What was built.
One engineer, end to end: design, apps, web, backend and the store release.
