Represent is a crowd-selling platform that enables anyone to create and sell custom merchandise with no upfront costs. Launched in May 2014, Represent removes the hurdles between having a creative idea and selling merchandise online. In 2016 Represent has been acquired by Custom Ink.
We are a tech-first company based in West Hollywood, Los Angeles; Prague, Czech Republic; and Fairfax, Washington Metro. We build successful global products and automate manufacturing with clever software.

Represent is an e-commerce platform that sells celebrity merchandise to raise money for charities. Our main challenge is building a global product that scales and is as automated as possible.
Keeping our servers responsive after a client with millions of followers tweets a Represent link is a must. Caches, auto-scaling, and tuned-up nginx help. Our constantly AB-tested product pages convert the large traffic into sales.
Every order is then processed in a distributed system we've been designing for years. From the moment we get an artwork for the shirt, till the delivery to the customer's door, we only require human attention when it is unavoidable.

Custom Ink acquired Represent in 2016. Custom Ink, just like Represent, sells customized merchandise online and we also share the technological stack. Within Custom Ink, the Represent team helps with innovative and research projects.
The core of the Custom Ink's order creation funnel is an online designer. Given the scale at which it operates, it represents a unique opportunity to test our skills to build large-scale React applications. To enhance Custom Ink's mobile experience, we designed a mobile app which brings the ordering and tracking experience to your iOS device.
With large pre-production and manufacturing divisions, we strongly push for automation. We solve hard real-world problems, by building the right tools and applying the latest machine learning algorithms. Among the projects we work on is a system that cleans up images with deep neural nets, and a tool that identifies trademarks in designs.

Separo is an in-house technology that prepares graphics for screen printing.
To be able to print complex images on fabric, one needs to print in layers. Creating these layers has traditionally been done manually and could take up to several hours. Separo combines deep color science insights with the power of optimization algorithms to automate this process.
Printers all over the world now utilize the algorithms we developed via our SaaS tool.
