How Inflow utilizes data-driven insights to create catalogs

  1. AI Analysis and Predicting Trends

The platform automatically gathers and updates data from social media and eCommerce to identify trending items based on material, theme, color, and pattern. It suggests specific categories for brands based on demographics such as gender, age, style, and location.

We can easily search for trends and see which products are popular among other fashion brands, as well as understand purchasing power from local to international markets. For example, leather trench coats are trending this fall/winter 2024 season, particularly in dark red (intense rust) for both women’s and men’s collections. These items will be featured in the Collection Trending section, complete with detailed images and models showcasing style, textiles, etc.
