Samplyn 4.0 Three years in daily production
Buyers to factory, one system.
Order and product management software for apparel wholesalers and private-label makers.
Samplyn runs apparel wholesale from the first sample to the last carton: your line, your buyers, your samples, your production and your shipments in one system, with an AI agent that works it with you.
Most apparel wholesale still runs on three tools that were never meant for it.
- Spreadsheets
- A different version of the line on every laptop, and nobody sure which one is current.
- Sample approvals and order changes buried in threads only one person can find.
- Chat threads
- Factory updates and photos scrolling past in group chats, gone by next week.
01 / 06Develop
Specs a factory can sew from.
Every style carries its photos, attributes and a spec sheet built from your points of measure library. Raise a sample request from a style, a design or a moodboard, and turn a flat lay or a CAD into a product photo.
- A points of measure library with presets per category and brand, applied to a style in one step
- Printable spec sheets, sample-submit and swatch-submit forms
- Live moodboards on a sample request, built by talking to Cardi
- Photos from a flat lay or a CAD: on-model try-on, color change, studio backdrops
02 / 06Sell
Your line, in front of the right buyer.
Each buyer signs in to a private portal scoped to their company and divisions. They see the current line and only the prices you turn on, never your cost. Style Pitcher says what to show which account, and why.
- Current line, buyer wishlists, line sheets as PDF or print, and a sample cart
- Style Pitcher ranks what to pitch to each account, with the reason, and tracks the outcome
- Retailer intelligence: a dossier per account from public filings, Census and FRED data, Google Trends and news
- Meeting capture: scan style codes at the showroom table and they become a list
03 / 06Sample
Every sample has a holder.
Every sample request has an owner and a phase. Every physical sample is checked out and in by scan, so you know who has it right now. Buyer loans come back, or get chased.
- Check out and check in by barcode scan, one sample or a whole rack
- Overdue alerts when a sample sits too long
- Buyer loans: keep, return, more time, or send me another
- Labels for styles, purchase orders and lists
04 / 06Make
Know if the ship date is still real.
Purchase orders carry the size grid, the line items and a stage-by-stage production pipeline. Time-and-action milestones run as a Gantt per order, and a late one sends a notice. Your overseas team runs production in the same record.
- Size grids and line items, with pricing masked by role
- A draft order stays a draft until a person commits it
- Time-and-action milestones per order, with delay notifications
- A factory directory with capacity, compliance audits and certifications
05 / 06Ship
Where is it? On the screen.
Shipments sit on the purchase orders they carry. Containers and parcels are tracked live, a late ETA carries its reason, and your 3PL receives in its own portal. Buyers see their own shipments when you switch it on.
- Live ocean container and FedEx parcel tracking, a route map, stale and exception alerts
- ETA delay reasons sent to the warehouse
- Your 3PL's dock team sees inbound containers for its own warehouse and marks them received
- Buyers see their own shipments, only when their company's switch is on
06 / 06Run it
The whole business, one record.
Dashboards and reports cover orders, products, customers, production and capacity. Tasks, a calendar and an inbox sit on every record, every change lands in the audit trail, and roles decide who sees money.
- Executive, orders, monthly, product, customer, production and capacity reports
- Tasks, boards and a calendar across styles, orders and shipments
- Comments with mentions, and emails whose subject says what happened
- An audit log of every create, update and delete, with who did it
