our missions and values

Our mission: To be the retail intelligence platform that increases conversion, reduces returns and eliminates missed sales for fashion brands across Europe.

So every body wins.

our values

We take initiative, speak up with reason, and lead based on logic—not hierarchy. Everyone at Faslet owns the outcome.

We take our mission seriously, but never ourselves. We believe work should energize, inspire, and bring joy because life’s too short for anything less.

We act with responsibility and respect for the environment and for people. Inclusivity and sustainability aren’t buzzwords—they’re our baseline.

This is the way. We challenge the status quo, test fast, learn faster, and continuously improve. Smart sizing today. Smarter commerce tomorrow.

We communicate openly and honestly—with each other, our clients, and our partners. Every idea counts, every voice matters.

Our clients and their customers are at the heart of what we build. That’s why we deliver on time, on budget, and to the highest standards always.

our story

It all started during the first lockdown. Stores were closed. Fitting rooms off-limits. And in true Dutch fashion, the sun made a rare appearance.

We needed warm-weather clothes fast—but with no tape measure, no try-on options, and no clue if our usual size would actually fit, we were stuck.
Three choices. None ideal:

  1. Buy our normal size and hope for the best.
  2. Order multiple sizes and return the rest—wasting time, money, and adding to CO₂ emissions.
  3. Give up entirely and miss the sun.

That moment of frustration sparked a bigger idea:
What if shoppers never had to guess their size again?
What if every brand could give every shopper the confidence to buy the right size the first time?

That “what if” became Faslet the AI-powered sizing platform that simplifies shopping, reduces returns, and makes fashion more sustainable.

Because when sizing just works, everyone wins.
Shoppers buy with confidence. Brands grow with less waste. And the planet breathes a little easier.

So every body wins.

the Faslet culture

At Faslet, diversity isn’t a goal it’s our foundation. We’re proud to be a multicultural team of thinkers, builders, and boundary-pushers, each bringing a unique perspective to the table.

We believe the best ideas come from different minds working toward a shared mission. That’s why our structure is flat, our doors open, and every voice heard regardless of title or background.

Curiosity is encouraged. Purpose is expected.
And mistakes? We don’t fear them. We learn from them. Because growth doesn’t happen in the comfort zone.

Together, we build a culture of ownership, experimentation, and impact—where innovation thrives, people grow, and so every body wins.

Oh and by the way, David. Loves. Cheese.

Football is a big part of Yannick’s life. His German heart beats for Bayern Munich, but since moving around in the Netherlands, he has also found himself supporting Feyenoord.

Outside of work, Yannick is usually either at the gym, planning his next trip, trying new food, or looking for something new to experience. He enjoys discovering different cultures, good restaurants and places that make you want to stay a little longer than planned.
