Built on a working garment floor.

Stitchfloor is factory software for Indian garment units. It is built alongside a garment manufacturer running it for real, and many of its screens started as a question someone there had to answer that morning.

01Why it exists

The floor keeps one count, the office keeps another.

Most small factories run on registers, WhatsApp and an accountant's software. The office keeps the books, the floor keeps its own count in a notebook, and every week somebody copies one into the other. By the time the owner sees a number, it is a month old and nobody is sure it is right.

Large companies solve this with enterprise software. Small ones mostly decide that kind of system is not for them, or try one and watch it stall at the first supervisor who has to type a bundle count into a screen built for an accountant.

Stitchfloor starts on the floor instead. Because it is built alongside a manufacturer that runs on it, the model is the factory's own: lots and bundles, a lot sent to a printer and counted back, piece rates per process, fabric bought by weight and colour. The supervisor's desk is built for Hindi and for a phone, and the books are made from what the floor records.

A small unit should get the kind of control large companies buy enterprise software for, at a price and a learning curve it can take on.

02Team

Who is building it.

Two founders, building alongside a garment manufacturer that runs on it.

Aditya Doomra

Co-founder

Works in corporate finance and strategy at Bain & Company, on applying machine learning to financial and strategic problems. Studied commerce at Sri Venkateswara College, Delhi University, and machine learning and AI at Univ.AI. At Stitchfloor he owns the question of what a number on a screen has to mean before anybody should act on it.

Ridhav Jain

Co-founder

Builds the product: the six desks, the Hindi mode and the ledger underneath them. He works against a real factory rather than a specification, which is why Stitchfloor models a lot going out to a printer and coming back short, instead of a generic work order.

03How we work

Four habits you can hold us to.

Software for wages and money is only useful if people believe the numbers. These are the rules we keep so they can.

  1. We label what is not built. Anything we plan but have not built yet carries Coming soon beside it. Today that is AI-written analysis, a WhatsApp agent and a native iPhone app: all coming soon. Things we do not do, like e-invoices, say No.
  2. We fix a claim when we are told it is wrong. We keep a list of every claim we have withdrawn and check each page against it. If you spot something out of date, write to hello@stitchfloor.com and we will correct it.
  3. We scope a claim to where it is true. Hindi covers three desks, so we say three desks. Voice entry needs a live workspace (your company's own Stitchfloor, as opposed to the public demo), and we say so beside it.
  4. The demo runs the same software. The same software a workspace runs, on a sample factory, without voice entry and e-way bill filing, open to anyone with no signup. You can judge it before you talk to us.

Tell us about your floor.

Where you are, what you make and how many tailors you have. We will take it from there.
