AI Tech Pack Generator

A tech pack is the document that turns a design into something a stranger can make. It carries the flat sketches, the measurements at every size, the fabrics and trims with their suppliers, the construction notes, the labels and the finishing. A person on the other side of the world, who has never spoken to you, reads it and produces your garment.

Everything upstream of it is a picture. A rendering, a photograph, a sample somebody made once. Pictures are for deciding; the pack is for building, and the difference is that a picture can be interpreted while a pack is meant to remove interpretation.

Which is why it is the least glamorous part of a collection and the one that decides whether the collection exists. A design nobody can specify does not get made.

Give it photographs of the finished design, a description if you have one, and the size range you want. It reads the garment from the images and returns a complete first draft: the description, the measurement table across your sizes, the bill of materials, the construction notes. In under a minute, and in your units.

What it is doing is not guessing prettily. It is naming what is visible: the silhouette, the closures, the seams, the components a piece like this is made of, the measurements a garment of that shape carries. That is most of the typing, and typing is most of what a tech pack costs in hours.

What it cannot know is worth stating exactly, because it is what you must read before sending anything. It does not know your intended fit, so a measurement it proposes is a plausible one rather than yours. It does not know your suppliers, so a material it lists is a description rather than a purchase. And it does not know your tolerances, which are a decision between you and the factory that no photograph contains. Correct those four things and the pack is yours.

Most tools in this category hand you a template and ask you to fit your garment into it. That works until the garment is not the one the template was drawn for, and then you spend the afternoon deleting rows you cannot delete.

Here the document is built from sections you control. Add one, move it, hide it, delete it, spread the pack across as many pages as it needs. A pack for a knit does not have to look like a pack for a tailored coat, and a factory that wants its own order of information can have it.

The practical consequence: your document converges on what your manufacturer actually reads. That is a thing you learn over a few seasons, and it should be possible to keep.

No, and that question is asked so often that it deserves a straight answer rather than a slogan.

The pack is assembled and exported here, so the measurement table is a table you type in and the bill of materials is a list you fill, without a spreadsheet in the loop and without a version of that spreadsheet on somebody else's laptop.

But if you want Illustrator you keep it. A flat sketch generated in the design studio exports as SVG, which opens as editable vector lines rather than as a picture of a drawing, so a technical designer can correct a seam by moving the line rather than by redrawing it. The sketch comes back onto the canvas here, where it is placed, scaled and labelled where the detail is.

Building a pack by hand costs nothing beyond your plan: the editor, the pages, the tables, the canvas and the PDF are the product. Letting the AI write the first draft spends credits, like any other generation, and a new account opens with three free credits.

That division is deliberate, and it matches where the value is. The typing is the expensive part in hours and the cheap part in judgement, so that is the part worth automating. The reading, the correcting, and the decision about what your factory needs to be told stay with the person who knows the garment.

A tech pack is the last step, and everything before it lives in the same account. A design generated in Studio 01 becomes a flat sketch; that sketch becomes the drawing on the canvas here; the measurements are written around it; the pack exports as the file you send. Nothing is retyped between those steps and nothing is redrawn.

That continuity is the argument for building the pack where the design was made. Most tech pack tools begin at the moment a design already exists somewhere else, which means the first thing you do is re-import your own work.
