CreateMe, an automated soft materials manufacturing company, has created systems that use physical artificial intelligence to revamp how textiles are made. To do so, the company replaces traditional sewing — which is particularly difficult to automate — with digitally bonded construction powered by robotics, proprietary adhesives and AI-driven manufacturing systems.
The company says its Modular-Engineering Robotic Assembly system is the world’s first autonomous tailoring platform, combining hardware and software that “deliver dynamic variability and flawless precision, accelerated with physical AI.” But challenges remain, especially related to handling cloth, which isn’t rigid and thus is harder for robots to handle consistently.
CreateMe CEO Cam Myers holds 25 patents in apparel automation technologies developed at the company. Prior to founding the company, he was on the founding executive team of Group Commerce, a venture-backed e-commerce platform ultimately acquired by Blackhawk Network, and previously held roles at DoubleClick and Allen & Co. He holds a B.A. and an M.A. from the University of Cambridge, and an MBA from Northwestern University.
