What the Tr3e connector can do
Once the connector is on, your AI app can read your collection and make changes for you, with your own permissions. Here is everything it can do today, with an example of what to ask.
Not connected yet? Start with Connect Claude, ChatGPT or Copilot. It takes five minutes.
Collections
| You can ask | The connector |
|---|---|
| How is SS27 doing against its budget? | Opens a collection with its budget, PO Ready date, categories, milestones and products, and the projected revenue, profit and budget used. |
| Create FW27 with a PO Ready date of 15 May and the categories Outerwear and Knitwear. | Creates or changes a collection: name, PO Ready date, pace, budget, notes and categories. |
Products and costing
| You can ask | The connector |
|---|---|
| Which products in SS27 have no unit cost yet? | Finds products by collection, category or tag, with their prices and unit cost. |
| Show me the Oslo Coat in Black. | Opens a product with its variants, sizes, SKUs, barcodes, bill of materials, manufacturing and unit cost. |
| Add the Oslo Coat in Black and Ecru, sizes S to L, under Outerwear. | Creates or changes a product: colours, sizes, options, prices, category, and each size's SKU, barcode and planned units. |
| The coat takes 2.4 m of the wool twill and 6 buttons. | Adds, changes or removes lines on a product's bill of materials, so its unit cost is costed. |
| Sewing at Atelier Nord is €18 a unit, minimum 100. | Adds, changes or removes manufacturing lines, such as sewing, a wash or shipping. |
| What is the margin in wholesale and in retail for SS27? | Answers revenue, profit and margin per channel, and what the materials and manufacturing cost against their minimums. |
The Critical Path
| You can ask | The connector |
|---|---|
| What is late in SS27, and who is it waiting on? | Shows a collection's Critical Path: what is late, at risk or on time, and who owns each milestone. |
| Move the sample review of these five products to 3 March and give it to Anna. | Changes a milestone's owner, date or risk flag, or puts products on hold, on one product or many at once. |
Samples
| You can ask | The connector |
|---|---|
| Which samples are we still waiting for? | Lists samples with their type, status, supplier, price and dates. |
| Record a Proto for the Ecru coat from Atelier Nord, expected on 20 January. | Records a sample, changes it, discards it with a reason, or records its next round. |
Purchase orders
| You can ask | The connector |
|---|---|
| Which purchase orders are still in draft? | Finds and opens purchase orders with their lines, totals and status log. |
| Draft a PO to Atelier Nord for 120 Oslo Coats in Black. | Creates or changes a draft purchase order. Approving and sending it stay with you in the app. |
Library
| You can ask | The connector |
|---|---|
| Which fabrics do we buy from Portugal, and what do they cost? | Finds materials and components with their price, minimum order quantity, supplier and stock. |
| Add Organic Cotton Jersey 180, black, 180 gsm, sold by the metre. | Creates or changes materials and components: name, SKU, unit, colour, weight and stock. |
| The silk is €5 a metre, minimum 50 m. | Records an order of a material or component, which sets its price and minimum order quantity. |
| Add Atelier Nord, a sewing factory in Porto. | Finds, creates and changes the suppliers and factories you work with. |
Team and comments
| You can ask | The connector |
|---|---|
| Who is on our team, and what do they do? | Lists the people in your workspace with their role and area of responsibility. |
| What did the factory say about the Proto? | Reads the comments on a product, collection, sample, purchase order or library item. |
| Comment on the PO that the delivery moves a week. | Posts a comment or a reply as you, in plain text. |
Help
| You can ask | The connector |
|---|---|
| Who am I connected as? | Your name, the workspace and your role. |
| How do I invite a colleague? | Answers from the guides, with the app's own button names. |
| Tell the team I need to export the line sheet to Excel. | Passes your feedback on to the team that builds the app. |
What it never does
Some decisions stay with people, in the app. The connector never does these, even when asked:
- Delete anything.
- Approve, send, receive, close or cancel a purchase order.
- Approve a sample or mark it received.
- Decide, reopen or drop a milestone.
- Invite people or change their roles.
- Attach files or mention people in comments.
Every change goes through your own role. Viewers can read but not change anything, and most AI apps ask you before a change is saved.
What's new
- 10 November 2026. 18 new tools: bills of materials and manufacturing, revenue and margin per channel, the Critical Path, samples, purchase orders, suppliers, the team and comments. Product lists now filter by category and tag and show unit cost.
- October 2026. The connector opens in Claude, ChatGPT and other AI apps, with collections, products, materials and components.
New tools appear here when they reach the app. Your AI app picks them up on its own, so there is nothing to reconnect.
