Cultural Trend Synthesis

Real-time, multi-modal analysis of emerging streetwear aesthetics and internet culture — clustered into themes and scored for velocity, longevity and audience fit.

Automated Design Directives

High-fidelity vector styling prompts, palette specs and typography arrangements your designers or image models can execute directly.

Structured Catalog Generator

Claude generates SEO product titles, descriptions and tags validated against a strict JSON schema — no copy-paste, no broken listings.

Autonomous POD Routing

Push approved designs and listings straight to our fulfillment partners Printful, Gelato and Prodigi, routed by product, region and cost.

Predictive Margin Intelligence

Built on Anthropic Claude

Why Claude powers TrendingTee

Culture moves fast, but taste is nuanced. We run Claude Sonnet 5.5 as our cultural reasoning core and Claude Haiku 4.5 for high-volume signal triage, tagging and metadata at catalog scale.

Steerability for nuanced aesthetics

"Y2K, but quieter." "Streetwear, but nothing that reads as a sports logo." Claude follows fine-grained creative direction and typography constraints reliably.

1M-token context for your whole brand

Brand books, past collections, best-seller data and trend history fit in a single context window, so every concept is on-brand from the first draft.

Prompt caching for speed and scale

Brand context is cached once and reused across thousands of generations, cutting latency and cost so batch catalog runs stay fast and affordable.

A REST API for trend signals, concept generation and catalog export. Webhooks fire when a trend crosses your velocity threshold or a concept passes IP review.

  • POST /v1/concepts — design directive + metadata from a trend
  • POST /v1/exports — push approved SKUs to your POD provider

FAQ

Straight answers

Who owns the designs I generate?

You do. On every paid plan, the commercial rights to concepts, directives and catalog content you generate and approve are assigned to your business. We never resell or reuse your designs or brand data.

What print quality do exports support?

Exports target common POD specs: transparent PNG at 300 DPI (e.g. 4500 × 5400 px for full-front tees) plus SVG for vector-friendly typography. Each file ships with a print-area spec for the selected garment.

Which print-on-demand providers can I connect?

TrendingTee integrates with our fulfillment partners Printful, Gelato and Prodigi — connect your provider account once and sync in one click. A standard JSON catalog export covers any other platform or storefront. Enterprise plans can add custom fulfillment and ERP connectors.

How do you prevent copyright and trademark issues?

Every concept passes an automated screen for trademarked terms, protected characters, real-person likeness and harmful content. Flagged concepts are blocked or sent to human review. Screening reduces risk but does not replace legal advice — final publishing decisions stay with you.

Is my brand data used to train AI models?

No. We use Anthropic's commercial API, which does not train on customer inputs or outputs by default. Your guidelines, catalogs and sales data stay isolated to your workspace.
