The 30-second answer
AIMS360 is the bigger, apparel-specific choice: PLM, production, retailer EDI, warehouse and accounting in one standard system built for fashion. Convexity is smaller and younger and works more like a boutique: it goes deep on inventory, orders and purchasing, puts AI to work on the buying, and our team adapts it to how your brand runs. Pick AIMS360 for the whole apparel stack from one vendor; pick Convexity when the problem is what to make or buy, by style and size, and you want it handled for you.

A smaller, younger team. Our founders and engineers set it up with you, adapt it to your process and stay reachable after go-live.

An autonomous purchasing manager, not another tool
In most apparel systems, someone sets reorder rules style by style and size by size. Convexity’s inventory optimization works like an autonomous purchasing manager: every week it re-forecasts each SKU from its own sales history, resets reorder points and safety stock, and drafts purchase orders by vendor that respect lead times, minimums and case packs, with the reasoning shown. Your buyer reviews the exceptions and approves; the routine work is already done.
Can Convexity run alongside AIMS360?
Yes. Brands can keep AIMS360 for production and accounting and run forecasting and purchasing in Convexity next to it. We agree which system owns styles, orders and stock before connecting them.
