Akwa Platform

Build on the operating system behind AI fashion development.

Akwa is building the structured design layer for fashion: from sketches and semantic garment graphs to production-oriented technical data. The first door is open: on a paid plan, a personal API key connects your AI assistant or your own system to the garment graph, tailor briefs, Design Trust, exports and Tech Packs. Early access, built on something real, not a promise.

Keys are created in Settings > Developer access. Partner capabilities beyond the first door open through the waitlist.

The data model

Fashion as structured information, not just an image.

Sketch→ Semantic Garment Graph→ Render→ Tech Pack→ Manufacturing

Most fashion AI ends with an image. Akwa treats a design as data every stage can read and enrich: seams, panels, points of measurement, provenance. The semantic garment graph is the product; an API is just how you reach it.

Why fashion needs structured design data

Every other industry designs on data. Fashion still designs on pictures.

Software has code. Architecture has BIM. Film has the edit timeline. Music has the score. Each is a structured source of truth that every tool can read and every stage can build on without guessing.

Fashion has an image and a PDF. A render is pixels; a tech pack reverse-engineers those pixels; a factory re-interprets the tech pack. Design intent leaks at every handoff, and the cost shows up as failed samples, poor fit, misread details and slow production.

When a garment is structured data instead (seams, panels, points of measurement, construction and provenance) every stage reads and enriches the same source rather than reinterpreting a picture. That programmable design layer is what fashion is missing, and what Akwa is building.

What you could build

Ship in weeks, not months.

AI Fashion Stylist

Personal styling and wardrobe agents grounded in real garment intelligence.

AI Tech Pack Generator

Turn a design into production documentation inside your own product.

Body Twin Fit Experience

Measurement-based fit guidance for commerce and styling, on a declared Body Twin, no photographs.

AI Tailor Assistant

Brief-to-garment guidance for tailors, ateliers and made-to-order.

Fashion Manufacturing Platform

Complexity, readiness and construction intelligence for sampling.

AI Fashion School

Teach construction, culture and craft with structured fashion knowledge.

Agentic Shopping Experience

Let assistants design, compare, visualise and buy, on the user's behalf.

Capabilities

Fashion intelligence, as building blocks.

Design Generation

Beta

Culturally grounded fashion concepts from language, sketches or structured briefs.

Tech Pack

Beta

Structured sample-stage tech packs: flats, BOM, specs, construction and QC. Requestable through the API.

Design Trust

Beta

Originality signals, cultural provenance, similarity risk and readiness. Readable through the API and MCP.

Body Twin

Exploring

A measurement-based representation of the wearer: declared attributes, no photographs. Try-on is not offered today, and the Body Twin is not yet readable through the API.

Concierge (MCP)

Beta

Connect Claude Code, VS Code or Copilot to your Akwa account with a personal API key: garment graphs, tailor briefs, Design Trust and exports.

Manufacturing Intelligence

Exploring

Production complexity, construction risk and factory-readiness estimates.

Connect

Two doors, one key.

On a paid plan, create a personal API key in Settings > Developer access. It opens the Akwa MCP server and the Akwa API. Both answer only about your own designs and the published Akwa house collection, never with renders, and every value carries its provenance state (asserted, inferred, unstated). Send it as Authorization: Bearer akwa_sk_….

MCP server

Streamable HTTP, JSON-RPC 2.0 over POST. Five tools: get_garment_graph, get_tailor_brief, run_design_trust, list_unresolved_confirmations (read-only) and export_design (a layered SVG for Illustrator, or JSON, one-hour link).

Claude Code

One command, then ask Claude about your designs by name or AKW identity.

claude mcp add --transport http akwa https://olgggkmqnncdjdxwikml.supabase.co/functions/v1/sgg-mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer akwa_sk_..."

VS Code and GitHub Copilot

Add to .vscode/mcp.json (or copilot mcp add with the same URL and header).

{ "servers": { "akwa": { "type": "http", "url": "https://olgggkmqnncdjdxwikml.supabase.co/functions/v1/sgg-mcp",
  "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer akwa_sk_..." } } } }

Akwa API v1

The same reads by design id or permanent garment identity, exports, and Tech Pack requests (EUR 25 plus a fixed surcharge, or included in your plan). GET /v1 lists every route.

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer akwa_sk_..." https://olgggkmqnncdjdxwikml.supabase.co/functions/v1/api-v1/v1/designs

ChatGPT and claude.ai

Consumer connectors sign you in with OAuth 2.1 (early access). Add a custom connector with the MCP URL below, approve it with your Akwa account, and disconnect it any time from Settings. Akwa inside ChatGPT is entitlement-only: what your plan already includes, with no purchases in the chat.

Platform philosophy

The principles under every endpoint.

Designer intent is the source of truth

AI assists; designers decide. Faithful by default, creative only by request.

Structure before pixels

A garment is data first and an image second. The graph, not the render, is authoritative.

Culture before style

Origin is the starting material, grounded in a cultural fashion ontology, not a surface filter.

Production before presentation

Everything resolves toward something a real tailor or factory can actually make.

The missing layer

Every domain has a platform to build on. Fashion doesn't, yet.

Akwa is building the operating system behind AI fashion development: not another chatbot, but reliable, programmable fashion capabilities. Design intelligence, a cultural ontology, manufacturing knowledge, technical documentation and privacy-first digital twins, all reachable from one platform.

Early access
