A 300-worker garment factory asks HN-style Reddit how to deploy AI agents
Kritto_ · reddit · 2026-11-02
A Reddit user details the full workflow of a 300-employee garment factory whose major customer is Fabindia — order intake, delivery estimation, fabric procurement with A/B/C quality grading, material estimation, sampling, multi-stage production, QC and delivery — currently run on manual processes, Excel, and some CAD software, and asks how to design and deploy AI agents from scratch.
Key questions: agent design, suitable frameworks and architecture, integration with existing software and operational data, required data, multi-agent collaboration across departments, and practical deployment challenges.
