## Key takeaways

- Clothify (clothify.io) is an AI clothing brand builder: you type an idea and it drafts original artwork on real garments, a brand, a store website and social posts.
- Clothify is software. Print on demand partners make each piece after it is ordered and ship it to the customer, so there is no stock to buy or pack.
- Paid plans are Starter at $19.99, Studio at $49.99 and Pro at $149.99 a month. New Studio subscribers can try it for 7 days for $1.
- Clothify was called KickStart until November 12, 2026. It is the same product under a new name.

Clothify is an AI clothing brand builder at clothify.io, founded by Evan Yadegari and Austin Frankel. You type one idea, such as "a streetwear brand for late nights in the city", and Clothify drafts artwork on real garments, a brand name, colors and logo, a store website, and photos and captions for social media. You review and edit the drafts before taking them further.

- **1 idea** typed in plain words to start
- **12 garments** from T-shirts and hoodies to caps and totes
- **$1** for a 7-day Studio trial
- **6 platforms** get ready-to-download social posts

## What Clothify does

Clothify covers the work between an idea and a first sale. Each part is a draft you can edit, and nothing is ordered or published until you approve it.

1. **Brand** A name, colors and a logo, or the ones you already have
2. **Artwork** Original designs drawn for your idea
3. **Pieces** Artwork placed on garments, with color, placement and scale
4. **Store** A hosted website with product pages, prices and policy pages
5. **Launch content** Product photos, posts and captions to download
6. **Domain** Search for a store address, or connect one you own

## How Clothify works

You start with a sentence, a logo or reference images. Clothify asks a few visual questions about your garment, vibe and colors, then draws the first pieces. From there you adjust the artwork, pick garments and set prices from each piece's real cost to make.

Pieces are made by print on demand partners. [Printful](https://www.printful.com/how-printful-works) prints or embroiders each order after it is placed and ships it to the customer, with an average fulfillment time of 2 to 5 business days listed on its [shipping page](https://www.printful.com/shipping). Payments on your store go through Stripe. The full workflow is on the [studio page](https://clothify.io/studio), and each tool has its own page under [features](https://clothify.io/features).

## Who Clothify is for

Clothify is built for people who have an idea and no design or ecommerce background, and for brands that want to move faster.

1. **First-time founders** One idea and no stock budget
2. **Creators** Merch for an audience that already exists
3. **Teams and clubs** One store for members, with no boxes to hold
4. **Existing labels** Upload your logo and keep your name and colors

The [use cases page](https://clothify.io/use-cases) shows how each kind of brand starts.

## What Clothify costs

Three paid plans differ mainly by how many AI design requests you get each month. Prices were checked on November 10, 2026, and the [pricing page](https://clothify.io/pricing) always has the current ones.

| Plan | Monthly | Annual | AI design requests a month |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Starter | $19.99 | $119.94 | 15 |
| Studio | $49.99 | $299.94 | 50 |
| Pro | $149.99 | $899.94 | 100 |

New Studio subscribers pay $1 for the first 7 days, then the regular Studio price unless they cancel. Starter and Pro have no trial. You can start a brief before signing in. An account is needed to save work, and generation and workspace access follow the current account and plan requirements.

Garments, shipping and domains are separate from the subscription. For customer orders, Clothify deducts the production and shipping costs plus a 3% platform fee on merchandise from the payment; Stripe processing fees also apply. The brand keeps the remainder. A T-shirt with one print was $11.92 to make and a hoodie $22.63 in our November 7 supplier snapshot. Actual quotes depend on the product, size and destination. [What it costs to start a clothing brand](https://clothify.io/blog/cost-to-start-a-clothing-brand) adds up a sample first month.

## What Clothify does not do

Knowing the limits matters as much as the features.

1. **No warehouse** Clothify holds no stock and ships nothing itself
2. **No auto posting** Social posts are prepared for you to download and post
3. **No guarantees** Software cannot promise sales, rankings or a trademark
4. **Samples recommended** A mockup is not the printed piece, so inspect a sample before selling

Available products depend on the supplier and where the order ships. Check the real garment with the [clothing sample checklist](https://clothify.io/blog/clothing-sample-checklist) before you sell it.

## Clothify was previously called KickStart

Until November 12, 2026 the product was named KickStart and lived at trykickstart.app. It is now Clothify at clothify.io, and the old address redirects to the new one. The assistant inside the product is called Clothify AI. Other apps and stores use similar names, so the quickest check is the address: this guide is about the clothing brand builder at clothify.io.

## How Clothify compares with other tools

Clothify sits between a design tool, a print on demand supplier and a store builder. The [comparison pages](https://clothify.io/compare) look at the choice against each one, including [Clothify and Printful](https://clothify.io/compare/clothify-vs-printful) and [Clothify and Kittl](https://clothify.io/compare/clothify-vs-kittl). Pick a supplier directly if choosing blanks is your starting point, a design tool if you only need artwork, and Clothify if you want the brand, pieces, store and launch content drafted together.
