Textile and garment exporters.
Our costing takes days, and by then the buyer has three other quotes.
Where we would start: Costing from tech packs. Reads the tech pack and the buyer's request, pulls fabric and trim rates, applies your margin rules and drafts the costing sheet for the merchandiser to check.

Your week, as it runs today.
Garment and textile exporters make to order for overseas brands and retailers on prices fixed months ahead, so the margin depends on costing well, buying fabric and trims right, shipping on time and avoiding penalties. India's textile and garment exports fell 2.2% to $35.8 billion in 2025-26 (GTRI), after US tariffs on Indian garments rose as high as 50% before an interim deal on 2 February 2026 cut them to 18% (FashionUnited). The work is samples, costing, orders, the time and action calendar, compliance audits, shipping papers and buyer penalties.

A buyer wants costings for six styles by tomorrow, and fabric prices changed last week.

The buyer's portal shows a penalty for a late shipping notice.

And the rest of the week
-
A study, 2020
A late shipment means a penalty or an air freight bill.
Retailer penalties typically run 1 to 5% of a supplier's invoice, Walmart charges 3% of item value for late or missing goods, and one US retailer's vendor terms charge 2% a day for late delivery, capped at 10% of the order (Weber Logistics, 2020; URBN vendor terms).
-
A study
Tariffs and freight changed twice this year, and our prices were fixed months ago.
US tariffs on Indian garments rose as high as 50% before the 2 February 2026 deal cut them to 18% (FashionUnited), and GTRI says India's textile and garment exports fell 2.2% to $35.8 billion in 2025-26.

No number yet
We go through the same audit for every buyer.
No figure we can stand behind yet, so we print none.
-
A study, 2025
The EU will want a digital passport for every garment.
The EU's ecodesign rules have been law since July 2024, and textiles and apparel are among the first products that will need a Digital Product Passport, expected from 2027, holding composition, origin and recyclability data (Textile World, June 2025).
-
Our own sum
Our merchandisers spend the day chasing updates.
Three merchandisers spending half their day chasing updates is one and a half salaries, about Rs 6.3 lakh a year at Rs 35,000 a month.
Ten systems for textile and garment exports, under the six offers.
We plan the whole company, then build the first three. The usual first build here is marked, and the window beside the cards shows the one you are reading.

Who decides.
The managing director or owner, with the head of merchandising or the export manager.
Why this time is different.
AI that was bought and changed nothing.
A tool was bought and nobody owned the job. We take the whole job, test it on your past work, and stay to run it.
What exporters ask first.
Who says yes before anything goes out?
The person who owns that job at your company today. You name them when we write the rules with you. Inside those rules the agent acts at once. Anything outside them waits for one tap from the person named, on their phone, ready to approve or to change.
Do we have to change the software we use?
No. We build around the systems you already run, in accounts in your company's name, and we confirm each one before we start.
What does it cost?
There is no price on this page, because it depends on the work. After the session you get a written proposal with the scope, the test it has to pass, who works on it and one fixed price, before any work.
Everything comes to you. Most of it shouldn't.
Routine decisions follow your rules. What still needs you arrives on your phone as one tap, with the facts attached.
What changes. Nothing is typed twice, nobody asks where a job is, and routine decisions follow your rules.
What we measure, before and after. Orders typed by hand in a day, decisions reaching the owner in a week and hours spent chasing.
The old way keeps running until the new one has passed on your own work.
What costs your export business most? Bring us that.
