The F* Word is AI fashion workflow software. It helps fashion teams move through creative direction, pre-production, product launch, and production handoff in one connected system.
The four workflows are Creative Direction, Production Readiness, Product Launch, and Production Handoff.
No. Image generation is one part of the workflow. The F* Word connects trend intelligence, moodboards, briefs, AI fashion design, tech packs, launch assets, and supplier handoff.
A first-pass workflow can move from trend intelligence to moodboard, brief, AI fashion design, and tech pack draft in about 15 minutes, depending on input quality and review needs.
The F* Word can generate an editable first-pass tech pack draft in 8 to 10 minutes.
The tech pack draft should be reviewed by your team before manufacturing. Your technical designer or production team should approve measurements, tolerances, construction notes, materials, labeling, compliance, and supplier instructions.
You can start free with the AI Fashion Suite. Paid usage starts from $10. Pro is $299 per month. Enterprise pilots begin from $6,999 per month. Custom enterprise pricing is available for larger teams.
