For independent designers

Bring your house.
Keep your voice.

SaBi is the home for independent African heritage fashion houses. We are the chassis under your brand. Your storefront, your concierge, your Stripe, your conversation. We just make the parts of your work that don't pay better.

Four houses are already live

AfricStyle, King Moh, Stanlion, Maccen.

Each one keeps its own voice. Each one runs its own Stripe.

What you get

A working storefront in your voice, in three languages, on day one.

Editorial storefront

In your brand colors. Hero photo, your tagline, your story, your pieces, your concierge. Fully live in English, Spanish, and French. Every label, every product description, auto-translated when you write a new piece.

Fit profile in 90 seconds

A customer takes one photo on their phone. Our scanner detects their body, returns ten measurements, and the profile travels across every house on SaBi. Photos never leave the customer's device.

AI concierge trained on your atelier

Knows your fabrics, your timelines, your founder. Speaks every customer's language. Hands off to you when a conversation reaches anything you'd want to handle personally.

Sizes + stock you control

Add a piece, set its sizes (S/M/L/XL or 38–46), flip a size to sold out with one click. The storefront updates within a minute.

One inbox. One calendar. One ledger.

Customer messages, commission requests, fitting bookings, all in /admin/inbox. Reply once. Same place you see new orders and confirm fulfillment.

Payments to your bank, not ours

Stripe Connect on your own Stripe account. SaBi never holds your money or your secret keys. We're invisible to your customer's checkout.

Cross-house discovery (you decide)

Your product page can show one piece from each peer house, drawing customers across the four brands. Switch it off in one click if you'd rather stay solo.

Heirloom + provenance built in

A piece can carry its weaver, fabric origin, year, heritage story, and even a hand-down ledger so the next generation knows who wore it before.

How SaBi facilitates commerce

From a Pinterest screenshot to a deposit-paid commission, in one thread.

  1. 01

    Customer measures once

    Photo scanner or step-by-step. Profile travels across every house on SaBi.

  2. 02

    Customer browses + messages

    They heart pieces, ask questions, or click "have it made for me" with their measurements pre-filled.

  3. 03

    You quote, they pay

    You quote in the thread. Stripe takes the deposit when you both agree. You keep 100%; SaBi takes a flat monthly fee, never a percentage.

Two ways to take payment

Use SaBi as your storefront, or as a window into your existing one.

If SaBi is your storefront

Native Stripe Connect

King Moh, Stanlion, Maccen. You connect your own Stripe in one click. Money lands in your bank, not in ours. Receipts, refunds, payment dashboard, all yours. Mobile money rails (NotchPay, Flutterwave, MTN MoMo, Orange Money) on the same OAuth pattern, on the roadmap.

If you already run a store

SaBi mirrors and deep-links

AfricStyle. Your pieces show beautifully on SaBi in your brand colors and three languages. The "Buy" button on each piece deep-links to the matching product on your existing site. Your existing checkout stays the source of truth. SaBi adds reach.

How you get in

We don't ask you to sign yourself up. We invite you.

  1. 01Send the form below. The SaBi team replies within a day, usually faster.
  2. 02Once we have your email and the brand name confirmed, we add you as the owner of your house.
  3. 03You receive an email with a one-time link to /<your-house>/admin/sign-in. No password. Click and you're in.
  4. 04First thing you do in /admin: confirm your tagline, story, and concierge name. Optionally upload a logo and hero photo.
  5. 05Second thing: open /admin/products. Your first 3–8 pieces are already there. Edit, add, set sizes. Live within a minute.
  6. 06Third thing: open /admin/payments and connect your own Stripe so payments can flow.

The five questions every house asks

Straight answers, in advance.

Do you take a percentage of my sales?+
No. SaBi is a flat monthly subscription per house. Stripe Connect routes payments straight to your Stripe account. We never see your secret key, never hold the money, and never take a cut. The day that changes, you'll be the first to know.
Who owns my customer list?+
You do. Customers who message your storefront, buy from you, or save a wishlist on your house are your customers. SaBi is invisible at checkout and never markets to your list. The cross-house wishlist is opt-in per tenant, and your customers see your brand at the top of every page.
What if I don't speak Spanish or French?+
Write everything in English. SaBi auto-translates new product descriptions, taglines, and stories the moment you save them. Customers who browse your storefront in ?lang=fr see your real words rendered in clear French, not Google Translate slop. You never have to know a third language.
Can I leave?+
Same day. Your domain, your products, your customer list, your Stripe: all yours, exported on request. You're not locked into anything.
How do customers find my house?+
Direct URL (sabi.style/<your-slug>), your custom domain pointed at SaBi, the platform homepage that lists all four houses, search engines, and the cross-house rail on peer storefronts (when you opt in). You can also bring your own traffic: every social link from your Instagram or Threads can land on your SaBi storefront the same way it lands on Squarespace today.

Apply

Tell us about your house.

Three sentences is plenty. We reply within a day. If we're a fit, the next email from us has your owner sign-in link.

No sales call. No quotas. No commission on your sales.

SaBi is a flat monthly subscription per house. We do not take a cut of what you make. If we ever do, you'll be the first to know and you can leave the same day.
