Santa Clara, CA, July 24, 2025 – YesPlz AI, a B2B SaaS innovator transforming product discovery for fashion eCommerce with cutting-edge multi-modal AI, today announced the successful closing of its Pre-A fundraising round led by Naver D2SF, the venture arm of global internet leader Naver. Renowned for platforms such as Webtoon, Poshmark, and Line Messenger, Naver’s backing marks a significant milestone for YesPlz AI’s growth trajectory.

Operating out of Santa Clara, CA, YesPlz AI specializes in delivering advanced AI solutions that empower online fashion retailers to streamline their digital transformation. By leveraging multi-modal AI, YesPlz AI simplifies complex challenges in eCommerce—including data digitization, personalized search, and product recommendations—eliminating the manual and error-prone processes traditionally required.

With this funding, YesPlz AI is poised to accelerate its go-to-market initiatives, enabling a seamless adoption of artificial intelligence across the fashion retail sector. The company’s technology helps speed up AI transformation for fashion eCommerce with the following focused areas:

1. Data Digitization: Turning everything—from products to styles, trends, and shopping behavior—into smart, actionable data. We’ve made a lot of progress, but now we want to make these capabilities available to every fashion retailer to help them create truly seamless (and a lot more creative) experiences for shoppers.

2. No Engineering Required: Any retailer—big or small, tech-savvy or not—should easily access fashion-specialized discovery tools like search, filtering, recommendations, tagging, SEO, and analytics. All affordable and deployable in days, not weeks or months.

3. Styling Agents: We’re obsessed with creating fresh, engaging shopping experiences. From Mannequin Filter and AI Stylist to Hybrid AI Search, Trend Hunter, and AI Fashion Contest—we’re just getting started. If online shopping feels stale, we’re here to shake things up.

“We are thrilled to partner with an industry leader like Naver D2SF as we work to redefine product discovery for fashion eCommerce,” said Jiwon Hong, CEO of YesPlz AI. “Our mission is to empower retailers with tools that drive efficiency, personalization, and seamless shopping experiences through AI.”
