Loom&Stride

An MCP app on the Model Context Protocol built by Synthetic Souls at the Amrita University Coimbatore NitroStack × MCP To The Moon hackathon and deployed on NitroStack.

About this project

LOOM is an AI-assisted footwear compatibility platform designed to solve one of the biggest challenges in footwear shopping: finding shoes that truly fit. While traditional recommendations rely almost entirely on shoe size, real comfort depends on multiple factors, including foot geometry, movement patterns, lifestyle, intended activity, and individual needs. Two people wearing the same shoe size can have completely different experiences with the same pair of shoes.
