The job, before and after
Without it
The argument is marked as assertion, and the reference you half-remembered turns out to be the wrong season.
With McLeuker AI
Reference every claim you make in a crit.
Every crit and every hand-in - then once, for the graduate portfolio.
Why it is hard
A fashion degree asks for a researched argument, a resolved collection and a portfolio that gets you hired - and it asks for all three in the same term. The industry tools that would help cost more than the course.

Cited dissertation, concept and portfolio
Open an example: Dissertation Research BriefingIn depth · Hand in
Four hand-ins, and each one is marked on something else.
The brief says what to hand in. It rarely says what separates a pass from a distinction, so that is what this says instead.
01 · Term one
The dissertation
Whether the sources argue something or are listed to prove reading happened. Citation is the floor. Having a thesis is the grade.
Word10 pages
02 · Term two
The concept
Whether somebody else could work from it. A board that could belong to three different collections has not made a decision yet.
Deck10 slides
03 · Term three
The final collection
Cohesion, harder than any single piece, plus enough technical resolution to show it could be made.
PDF6 pages
04 · After
The portfolio
The only one of the four that keeps working after graduation. A studio reads a document, not a drive.

Reports
4 briefings written for fashion students.
Each one is the finished file, opened in full. Every figure in them is illustrative and each says so on its own cover; a real run researches and cites its numbers with an as-of year.
Start

Its brief opens in the composer. Fill in the [brackets] and send.
Fashion mode, on the Standard plan and above.
Next lane: Independent designers. After graduation: a sketch turned into everything a buyer meeting needs.
Questions
Before you start.
What does it cost to start?
Signing up costs nothing. There is a Free plan and no card is needed: 300 welcome credits when you verify your email, 100 daily credits you can claim every 24 hours, and 3 questions a day in Instant and Thinking. The agents on the solution pages run in Fashion mode, which opens on the Standard plan and above. What each plan opens is on the pricing page.
How long does a run take?
It depends on the job. A studio run is minutes: a fashion collection takes about three minutes end to end, and a product campaign set about two minutes forty. An agent works through every step of its run and stops when the file is finished, so it takes longer; you can follow each step as it runs.
What do I need to bring?
A question or a brief is enough to start. Studios that work from your own material take it directly: a product photo, a store link or a description for a campaign; garments and a model or your own photo for try-on; a sketch, a reference or an existing spec for a tech pack. You can attach files to a message - one file of up to 10 MB on the Free plan, more on paid plans.
Can I edit the files afterwards?
Yes. Decks are PowerPoint with real text boxes, shapes and native charts; spreadsheets have typed cells and live formulas; Word documents keep their styles, headings and a table of contents that updates. Research reports come as an editable PDF or DOCX.
Is my data used to train models?
No. McLeuker AI does not use your content, your files or your connected-account data to train or fine-tune AI models, as the Privacy Policy and the Terms both state. Limited, aggregated and de-identified logs may be used to improve reliability and security.
How are the references checked?
Books and journal articles are confirmed at Crossref, OpenAlex or Open Library, with their year, and web sources are checked to be live. A reference that cannot be confirmed is reported as unconfirmed.
Will my tutor accept it?
That is your institution's decision. Check its rules on AI and cite what you use - every output here keeps its sources linked, which is what makes citing it possible.
