Pattern Weaver vs TOMOKO

Pattern Weaver is a web-based AI tool for generating repeating patterns for textile and surface design. It makes tiles for uses including fabric, wallpaper, packaging, fashion, and print-on-demand. The site lists 40+ motif families, 600+ substyles, and 29 render methods. Users can preview repeats, adjust density, scale, arrangement, and color, and choose layouts such as half-drop, grid, brick, mirror, scattered, and ditsy. PNG and JPG exports are listed on every plan; Starter adds WEBP, while Pro and Max include TIFF, PDF, SVG, EPS, and DXF. Maximum export sizes vary from 2K to 8K by plan. Pro also includes print-ready CMYK with ICC profiles, color separations, and print bleed with crop marks. The maker says patterns can be used commercially without extra fees or royalties. A credit covers a generation, tiling fix, or enhancement; 8K AI-enhanced exports use two credits, and vector bundles use eight. Credits never expire, and purchases are one-time payments without auto-renewal. Free includes three credits; paid plans start at $19.99, paid once.

TOMOKO is a web-based AI fashion design agent for research, design development, image and video generation, and production preparation. Its research tools search trends, competitors, and source material, while Deep Researcher brings information together from multiple sources. Design Brief, Mood Board, and Design Competition tools support the development and comparison of creative directions. TOMOKO can generate and edit images, create video, and make presentations downloadable as PowerPoint files. Production outputs include specification drafts, pattern starting points, hang tags, woven labels, and JIS-compliant care labels. Projects can contain images, PDFs, specification files, URLs, and notes; users can disable memory or delete individual entries. It supports Japanese and English in a browser, and the maker recommends a PC. The Free plan provides 2,500 credits for 14 days. Starter costs $50 a month for 5,000 credits, while Basic costs $100 a month for 10,000 credits; both have no rollover. A 100.00 USD one-time Top-up provides 10,000 credits, valid for one year. After the trial, generation stops unless a paid plan is obtained, though existing data remains viewable.
