What changes with Collectives

A new revenue line, without anyone giving up control.

One store's data has limited value on its own. Pooled across the group, with permission, it becomes an asset that suppliers and brands will pay to access.

A new revenue stream

Members' data, pooled into a single asset that suppliers and brands pay for. Revenue flows back to the group.

Control stays with each member

Each member chooses what to contribute and at what level: store, group, category or SKU. Your data is governed, consented, and never exposed to other members.

Scale you cannot reach alone

Pooled, the data has real market value. Members reach that market without joining a chain or giving up autonomy.

How it works

Contribute what you choose. Earn from the collective.

Each member connects their data and chooses what to contribute, and at what level. tapestry pools it into a governed, aggregated asset that suppliers and brands can access, with permission and on the group's terms. The revenue from that access flows back to the members. Each member keeps full control of their own data, and no member sees another member's performance.

Step 01

Members contribute

Connect your data and choose what to share, down to store, group, category or SKU level. Nothing moves without consent.

Step 02

tapestry pools it

Every contribution becomes one governed, aggregated asset. A member's own data is never exposed to another.

Step 03

Suppliers access it

Suppliers and brands pay to access the collective insight, with permission and on the group's terms.

Step 04

Revenue returns

A new line on the group's P&L, shared back to members.

Privacy between members. Collectives only ever moves as an aggregate. No member sees another's performance.

Intelligent assistant

AI gets the headlines.
IA gets the work done.

Ask the question. Hank surfaces the answer.

In your own stores, Hank does what it does in Retail+: ask a plain-language question and it returns ranked tables and charts with a confidence tag. Across the collective, Hank surfaces aggregate trends, what is growing and where demand is shifting, without exposing any single member's data.

The platform

Everything in Retail+, for your own stores.

Collectives members run their own business on tapestry's full real-time intelligence platform: the same live POS data, the same tools, the same Hank. The only difference from a chain is that you see your own stores, never another member's.
