Barcelona-based FashionTech startup Artiso has secured over €3 million in pre-Seed funding to develop its AI operating system for fashion teams. Criteria Venture Tech led the round, with support from Swanlaab Venture Factory, Bynd Venture Capital, and angel investors David Tomás and Nicolaj Reffstrup. Artiso's co-founder and CEO, Sarah Iglesias Hiller, emphasized the company's mission to streamline the fashion creative process by integrating inspiration, design, product development, and pre-production onto one platform.

Founded by former Mango executives Iglesias Hiller, Lucas Pastur Romay, and Matthias Brenninkmeijer, Artiso leverages agentic AI to connect every step of the creative process, from moodboards to tech packs and campaign imagery. The startup claims its platform, built around each brand's unique archive and knowledge, can create tech packs in just four minutes, a significant improvement over the previous two to six hours.

Artiso works with mid-sized to enterprise fashion brands across Europe, North America, and Asia, with a focus on brand memory and personalized outputs.
