Short profile (free to use)

Isakum (isakum.com) is a platform for personalized T-shirts from Montabaur in the Westerwald region of Germany. Customers describe the design they want in their own words, for example "my dachshund as a watercolor". A self-developed AI pipeline turns that description into several finished designs to choose from within a few minutes. Every design is created individually from the description behind it, and no design is like any other. Production starts only after the order is placed, at a European production partner, with no warehouse and no overproduction. The platform is run as a sole proprietorship by founder Ilia Isakov, from the programming to customer service.

  • A one person business: one founder builds and runs the entire technology alone, from the AI system to customer service.
  • AI you can touch: one sentence in everyday language becomes a product you can wear.
  • Fashion without overproduction: nothing is produced until it has been ordered. No warehouse, no leftover stock.
  • Founded in the region: a digital company from Montabaur instead of Berlin or Munich.
