About
Stylumia is an AI-driven fashion intelligence platform designed to replace outdated, supply-driven trend forecasting with true consumer demand signals. At its core is the proprietary Demand Sensing™ technology, which removes noise from market data to surface what consumers genuinely want — not just what the industry produces. The platform's Consumer Intelligence Tool aggregates signals from global designers, brands, retailers, and runways to deliver laser-sharp trend forecasts relevant to designers, buyers, merchandisers, and market researchers. Apollo, Stylumia's new product demand prediction engine, uses ensemble machine learning combining visual and textual product attributes alongside transaction history to grade the potential of new ranges before any investment is made — removing the guesswork from new product launches. ImaGenie, developed in Stylumia Labs, adds generative AI capabilities to the product suite. Key use cases include spotting winning consumer trends, validating assortment decisions, identifying white-space opportunities, reducing markdown and excess inventory, improving speed to market, and localizing store-level assortments through Fashion AI and Taste Modelling. Clients report outcomes of up to +60% sales/revenue velocity, +30% inventory turns, and +20% full-price sell-through. Stylumia is purpose-built for fashion and lifestyle businesses — from emerging brands entering new categories to established retailers managing complex global assortments.
