Raspberry AI

AI-driven fashion design and CAD generation

Overview

Raspberry AI provides a subscription-based, AI-powered platform for fashion brands to generate design assets such as technical packs, CADs, high-fidelity designs, product descriptions, and photography. Through an AI-driven cloud service, subscribers access automated outputs and real-time trend feeds, with designers able to review and customize assets via a workspace. Outputs are guided by real-time market data and AI design assistants to speed up development and keep designs aligned with demand. The goal is to shorten the product development cycle and improve sell-through and revenue by delivering end-to-end AI-generated assets and insights faster than traditional workflows.

Raspberry AI launches agentic platform unifying fashion design to e-commerce, used by SKIMS, ALO and Walmart

Raspberry AI has launched an expanded platform that unifies the entire fashion product lifecycle, from design through to e-commerce, using AI-powered workflows. The company, whose clients include SKIMS, ALO, Beyond Yoga, Walmart, and Steve Madden, addresses an industry challenge where an estimated 40% of apparel inventory goes unsold annually. The platform connects design, merchandising, wholesale, marketing, and e-commerce teams in one continuous workflow. Brands can progress from initial concept to finished collection in days rather than seasons, with teams maintaining creative control throughout. Users report significant efficiency gains: 2–5 times faster speed to market, 60% lower sample costs, 80% lower photoshoot costs, and 75% lower production costs. Raspberry AI has partnered with Pantone for New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2027, integrating Pantone's 2,625-colour library into its platform. The company was selected for the inaugural CFDA x OpenAI Innovation Hub in May 2026.
