| Sample photography per SKU | $150-$300 per on-model look, per industry rate guides | 10 credits (~$1.00) per SKU — photorealistic on-model image generated per SKU | On-model AI photography answers the fit question flat-lay cannot — without a studio day. |
| Total photography cost for a 50-SKU collection | $7,500-$15,000 in on-model photography alone (50 looks at $150-$300 each), before setup and editing | ~$50 in compute credits (50 looks at 10 credits each) — no studio, no photographer, no travel | Cost savings compound with collection size: the larger the range, the greater the advantage. |
| InDesign layout and data entry | Days of design-agency or in-house InDesign work to format SKU data, pricing, and layout | Automated — SKU data, pricing grid, MOQ callouts, and layout built from your catalog import in minutes | Manual data entry errors are eliminated; every field maps automatically from your catalog. |
| Per-season production cost | A per-season production budget for sample photography, InDesign layout, and PDF production | Compute credits only — no minimum spend and no production overhead | Seasonal line sheet refreshes take minutes, not weeks. |
| Turnaround time (50-SKU collection) | 5-10 business days from sample availability to buyer-ready PDF, per industry turnaround guides | In a single session from catalog import to shareable PDF and flipbook link | Go from catalog to buyer inbox on the same morning the collection is confirmed. |
| Revision cost (pricing or MOQ changes) | Designer time per revision round to update and re-export the InDesign file | No cost — edit directly in the browser and republish; buyer link updates automatically | Mid-season pricing adjustments no longer require a new PDF send or new link distribution. |
| Digital distribution to buyers | Static PDF email attachment; no interactivity; re-distribution required for every update | Password-protected interactive flipbook link; accessible on any device; updates reflect in the existing link | Buyers always see the current, accurate version — no version confusion in the buyer inbox. |
