Where Tr3e goes deeper
- Live cost and margin per colour, from materials, components and manufacturing, next to the Target Price.
- The collection budget: spend, projected revenue and profit from the planned units.
- The Critical Path: eight milestones per product with owners and dates, and a view of the whole collection.
- Sampling with photos, notes and prices on the product.
- Purchase orders by colour and size, in the supplier's currency, sent as a PDF.
- SKUs, GS1 barcodes and Digital Product Passports from the same data.
- AI: a built-in agent, and a connection to Claude, ChatGPT and Copilot.
Tr3e has no inventory, wholesale or accounting tools, and no dedicated tech pack builder.
Using both
A common setup for growing brands: run stock, wholesale and accounting in ApparelMagic, and develop the collection in Tr3e. The line plan, costs and purchase orders are ready in Tr3e before the styles go into the ERP for selling.
