Know what will sell before you build it
PLANNING INTELLIGENCE
Connect your existing data — PLM, Shopify, Snowflake — into a shared planning layer that validates every decision before costs are locked in.
THE PROBLEM
Every season starts with a plan.
Many are already wrong.
Your data exists. The problem is that it lives in five different places, arrives weeks late, and requires an analyst just to access it. By the time the signal reaches the decision, the window to change anything has closed.
8 WEEKS
To translate a demand signal into a production decision
Your team finds out at week 5 something is off
Assortment decisions, quantity plans, spec handoffs — all made on data someone copied from somewhere else. By the time it surfaces, you're already committed

Trend cycles are compressing faster than your production window
What ran 18 months now runs 8 weeks. Your 6-month production cycle wasn't built for that. The gap between signal and decision keeps costing you seasons.

Every function has their own version of the truth
Design, merchandising, finance, production — each working from a different spreadsheet, a different cut of the data, a different read on what's selling.
THE REAL ISSUE
Markdowns, returns, and deadstock are the symptoms. The disease is a broken planning and coordination layer. What if you could validate in the same place you build?
HOW VIVIDAL WORKS
One shared layer. Every decision, validated before it ships.
Vidival sits between the systems you already run and turns siloed data into a planning layer every function can act on. A checkpoint at every step before costs are locked in.
01
WORKFLOW
One source of truth, every function
CONNECTED WORKFLOW
Every planning decision — assortment, quantity, specs, handoffs — runs through a shared layer that ingests your existing data and keeps it current. No copying. No reconciling versions. No finding out something went wrong at week 5.
02
VALIDATION
Checkpoints before every handoff
PRE-MEETING INTELLIGENCE
Designers validate specs before they reach merchandising. Merchandisers check against budget before a line review. Every team arrives prepared — not catching up. Decisions get made, not deferred.
03
INTELLIGENCE
External signals built into the plan
SIGNAL ENRICHMENT
Trend data and demographic signals layer into planning before a spec is written — not after a season fails. What you build starts closer to what the market will want, not what it wanted last year.

Walk into every meeting already knowing where the problems are and what to do about them.
Stop planning in the dark
We're working with a small group of Merchandising teams to shape the product. If your brand runs on Shopify Plus or Snowflake and planning loss shows up in your P&L, we want to talk.
No sales calls. Just a conversation about whether this is the right fit
