Cadenova

Cadenova is the AI-native product workspace where modern fashion brands design, develop, and deliver. Our platform replaces the spreadsheets and email chains that fashion teams rely on today with a complete PLM that handles tech packs, BOMs, costing, measurements, and vendor collaboration, alongside AI design tools and merchandising intelligence built directly into the workflow. By connecting product development to real sell-through data, Cadenova closes the loop between what gets designed and what actually sells. Our mission is to give emerging and growth-stage brands the tools and intelligence to make better decisions before production, protect margins, and produce less of what won’t sell.
