This reduces waste by ensuring that garments are only manufactured once they are sold. Combining pre-orders and programmable revenue splits helps transform the traditional \u2018push system\u2019 (stock model) into a \u2018pull system\u2019 (stockless model) of made-to-order manufacturing, ensuring a more sustainable approach and a positive working capital process. \n\n- **Multi-sided marketplace:** The blockchain can bring greater efficiency and liquidity to the creator economy, not only allowing for better matching of creators and brands with suppliers but also resulting in increased growth and fairer revenue sharing among contributors. This leads to a circular economy as suppliers are better able to repurpose their supply to the network of creators. Our multi-sided marketplace enables a collaboration graph with suppliers and producers bringing their made-to-order capacity onchain with verifiable footprint standards like energy credits and water consumption.\n\n- **Creator portfolio and licensing:** creators can mark the originality of their creations on the public ledger and can receive perpetual royalties as brands and other creators remix their creations. Creator and manufacturer profiles to showcase and license digital assets such as 3D zero-waste designs and sustainable manufacturing capacity. \n\n\n---\n\n# Background\n\nFashion production makes up 10% of humanity's carbon emissions, dries up water sources, and pollutes rivers and streams. Even worse, 85% of all textiles go to the dump each year, and washing certain types of clothes sends a significant amount of microplastics into the ocean (UNECE, 2018).\n\nFast fashion is a symptom of poor incentives. Currently, the fashion industry faces several problems:\n\n### Lack of resources, access to supply, and upfront costs\nFashion, like many other consumer goods verticals, has been going through a digital transformation as adoption from a digitally native audience of creators and consumers soars. This is impacting not only the design and production processes but the entire supply chain and those involved within it.\n\nDifficulty in accessing reliable suppliers and resources has hindered designers and brands from fully exploring their product potential, leading to the protectionism of supply networks and challenges in supplier management.\n\nThe industry is beginning to shift towards a more sustainable and positive working capital model, moving away from traditional stock-based systems to presell, preorder, made-to-order, and minimum-order-quantity manufacturing.\n\nThis allows designers and brands to receive upfront payments from orders, reducing the need for upfront investment in stock inventory and enabling a more efficient production process.\n\n### Supply chain transparency, gated footprint data, and fragmented digital assets\nThe challenge of implementing sustainable business models that are economically viable has grappled consumer markets, particularly fashion for a decade or more. Existing solutions are yet to scale sufficiently to meet customer needs across the demand curve.\n\nCustomers are increasingly conscious of their purchases, but reliable supply chains require collaborative networks of suppliers and producers to achieve scalable sustainable production.\n\nWeb2 software solutions have attempted to bring visibility to a product's provenance and footprint, but they lack standardized and complete data sets, making it difficult to verify sustainability claims and achieve clear transparency and visibility in the supply chain.\n\nProgress is further hindered by the vertical integration of fast fashion companies, fragmented data sources, and lack of shared incentives.\n\n### IP development and commercialization\nCreators often struggle to protect their Intellectual Property (IP) from appropriation by larger brands and cannot sufficiently monetize their creations without centralized distribution channels.\n\nSustainable suppliers and producers find sufficient demand at higher costs until they can scale their technologies and commercialize their IP.\n\nThe emergence of NFTs has opened up new opportunities for creators and makers to utilize decentralized distribution channels, monetize their work directly, and capture revenue across the demand curve.\n\n---\n\n# Solution\n\nCrowdmuse\u2019s programmable human-centric incentives enable each product contributor to monetize their creations and own their data and IP. \n\nCrowdmuse lowers the barrier for co-creation by:\n- Reducing upfront costs through revenue splits\n- Multi-sided marketplace with modular supply capacity\n- Recurring revenue through IP licensing and subscription\n\n### Reducing upfront costs through co-creation and preorder drops\nCo-creation refers to the process in which a brand or multiple creators co-design a product with input from their fans. As designer collectives and micro-brands bring their products and suppliers on-chain, they transform their individual supply chains into a supply web with multi-directional interconnections. By sharing supply and production risk, the collective capacity can scale sustainably without the need to push manufacturing costs down in vertically integrated supply chains.\n\nCrowdmuse utilizes the blockchain as a distributed order book of skills to streamline co-created and co-owned products, allowing creators to earn revenue based on their contributions and enabling artifacts to be authenticated to their profiles.\n\nCreator artifacts and skills can be plugged into multiple product creation flows, meaning that a 3D designer can plug their digital assets into another creator network to create an entirely new product.\n\nLimited edition product drops on the Crowdmuse marketplace help mitigate upfront stock costs and meet desired order numbers before production and delivery.\n\n### Multi-sided marketplace with modular supply\nIn order for the multiplayer creator economy to thrive, a multi-sided platform is needed to enable the various market participants to easily transact with each other.\n\nThe blockchain can bring greater efficiency and liquidity to the creator economy, not only allowing for better matching of creators and brands with suppliers but also resulting in increased growth and fairer revenue sharing among contributors.\n\nUsing our multi-sided marketplace, suppliers, and producers can bring their made-to-order capacity onchain with verifiable footprint standards like energy credits and water consumption.\n\nWith increased sustainable product supply options in the market, on-chain product provenance and certification provides transparent sourcing standards and footprint insights, while consumer ownership incentives serve as a market demand signal to larger brands.\n\n**Supply Webs**\nSupply access and manufacturing are made possible through our growing supply network, providing made-to-order, high-quality, sustainably manufactured garments.\n- [DECODE](https://twitter.com/decodemfg) is a New York-based zero-waste micro-factory and fashion company.
