“Visual search has become table stakes.” Ted Mann is the CEO of Slyce, the market leader in image recognition and visual search. Slyce has created the first computer vision system for visual product search and has led to customers like Macy's, Home Depot, JC Penney, Neiman Marcus, Best Buy, and Urban Outfitters to deploy image recognition in their apps. Before Slyce, Ted founded SnipSnap, the first mobile app to let consumers save printed coupons to their smartphone and redeem in store. At the time SnipSnap was acquired, it was profitable and the app had five million users, who redeemed more than 250 million coupons. Prior to starting SnipSnap, Ted was digital development director at Gannett, where he led the development of the company's first hyper-local network, daily deal websites, and blog operations, in addition to managing the core news websites. Listen And Learn: How he has differentiated Slyce’s technology in a noisy and very competitive marketplace. Visual search and its impact on human behavior. How even small retailers can adapt and incorporate a visual and voice search strategy that works for them. It’s more than the technology; it’s about solving customers’ problems. How product recognition technology is transforming the whole self-checkout, scan-and-go experience in grocery stores.   TO LEARN MORE ABOUT SLYCE, CLICK HERE.

Episode #5 of the Agents of E-Commerce Podcast brings a conversation on Computer Vision with Ted Mann, founder of SnipSnap and CEO of Slyce. With the incredible power of the advanced cameras that everyone carries around in his or her pockets (your phone), new experiences and engagement opportunities await retailers and customers.  We discuss Ted's history as a founder and CEO and how Visual Search fits within the context of computer vision developments over the past decade.  Check out Ted's company, Slice.it or experience Slyce firsthand powering the Home Depot, Macy's, and Tommy Hllfiger visual search within their apps. You can also follow Ted on twitter @turkeymonkey. I probably should have asked him about that twitter handle...Next time.

In this episode, Nicole Harris, the COO of Slyce, shares how she grew the mobile coupon app SnipSnap from startup to a profitable venture that was eventually acquired by Slyce. She also gives UA and Monetization advice on how to achieve similar successes across multiple channels.

There have been promises of the end of paper since paper was invented it seems and now it is time to shift our attention to the coupon. A small (soon to be bigger) company called SnipSnap has partnered with Valpak - the largest distributor of coupons in North America - to bring their coupons to your mobile device with little to no effort. Is this the end of its printed cousin or will this be just like the paperless office?
