The eyewear DAM + wholesale platform

Sync your collection once.
Then sell it everywhere.

Trade Studio is the digital asset manager built for eyewear brands. Every frame you sync arrives complete, with its marketing copy, technical specs, high-resolution images, and interactive 3D. Reps sign in to run PDP-quality demos at the booth or over a call. Buyers order from the same catalogue and download exactly the assets they paid for.

What you get when you sync

One record per frame, holding everything a channel could ask for

A frame is more than a photo and a price. Trade Studio keeps the whole digital asset package together, versioned, and ready to send. Update it once and every buyer, rep, and storefront sees the current version.

Marketing copy

Names, descriptions, story, and selling points, written for the frame and kept consistent wherever it appears.

Frame details and specs

Material, measurements, colourways, lens options, and SKU data, structured so buyers and systems can read it.

High-resolution images

Studio and lifestyle imagery at the resolution retail sites and catalogues need, no chasing files over email.

Interactive 3D and GLB

The same 3D models that power virtual try-on, ready to drop into a storefront or hand to a buyer per SKU.

Sync the collection once

Import from your catalogue or accounting system and Trade Studio builds the package for every frame. From then on it is the single source your buyers, reps, and channels all pull from.

Reps demo it live

Your sales team signs in and walks any collection through PDP-quality pages, the same detail a buyer would see online, at the booth or over a call. Then they write the order on the spot.

How it works

From the booth, to your books, to the buyer's store

Most wholesale order management software stops at the order. Trade Studio carries it through to accounting and to the digital assets your buyer actually needs.

Step 1

Book the meeting

The buyer requests a slot on your show calendar. Email verification and a confirm step keep the booking real.

Step 2

Build the order

Add line items at the booth: SKU, quantity, price. Send the quote, and the buyer confirms on the spot.

Step 3

Invoice hits accounting

The confirmed order posts as an invoice to your own QuickBooks or Xero. A nightly job re-checks anything that did not land.

Step 4

Hand off every asset

When the order's confirmed, the buyer gets the full asset package for exactly what they bought — marketing copy, specs, images and 3D — ready to drop straight into their store.

What Trade Studio does

Wholesale order management software, built for eyewear

Nine things your brand needs to sell wholesale, in one B2B eyewear order portal instead of a spreadsheet, a booking form, and a stack of paper order pads.

Live order taking at trade shows

A trade show order taking app that runs the full flow: create the order, add line items by SKU, quantity, and price, send the quote, get it confirmed, and turn it into an invoice. Buyer details captured as you go.

Accounting sync, per brand

Each brand connects its own QuickBooks, Xero, MYOB, or NetSuite once through OAuth. Confirmed orders sync invoices to QuickBooks and Xero automatically, and a nightly reconciliation retries whatever failed.

The differentiator

Full asset delivery to the buyer's store

When the order's confirmed, the buyer creates a Commerce Studio account and requests the collection. You approve it, and they download the complete asset package — copy, specs, images and 3D — for exactly what they ordered. Nothing else, controlled per asset.

Branded buyer portals

Every brand gets a branded subdomain like yourbrand.trade.varai.ai, with its own logo, colors, catalog, and booking. Buyers see the brand, not us.

Buyer vetting and pricing gates

Retailers apply, your staff reviews and approves, and only vetted accounts see wholesale pricing. Buyer vetting keeps your rate card away from people who should not have it.

Trade show meeting booking

Buyers book meetings with your team through the portal. An email verify and confirm step means the slots on your calendar are ones people will actually show up for.

AI catalog enrichment with SKU Genie

SKU Genie fills in missing product data and manages your digital assets, so your catalog stays current. It is the modern alternative to a Frames Data subscription, and it runs inside Trade Studio.

PMS integration for eyewear brands

Direct connections to more than 40 practice management systems, so the systems your retail accounts already run can talk to your catalog and orders.

Security that fits wholesale

OWASP-hardened auth with account lockout on repeated failed logins, plus per-brand data isolation. One brand's buyers, pricing, and orders never touch another's.

The part no one else does

Full asset delivery to the buyer's store, controlled by the brand

An order is not finished when the invoice goes out. Your buyer still needs the full asset package — copy, specs, images and 3D — to sell those frames on their own site and virtual try-on. Trade Studio handles that last step, and you stay in control of who gets what.

  1. 1 The frames from the order are ready, and the buyer gets an invite.
  2. 2 They create a Commerce Studio account and request the collection.
  3. 3 You approve the request. Access is granted per asset, not to the whole library.
  4. 4 The buyer gets every asset for exactly the SKUs they bought.

Integrations

Sync invoices to QuickBooks and Xero, and reach 40+ PMS

Trade Studio connects to the accounting system each brand already runs. Products and customers come in, confirmed orders and invoices go back out, and your practice management integrations reach the systems your retail accounts use.

  • Inbound: products, customers, and pricing pulled from your accounting system.
  • Outbound: confirmed orders and invoices pushed back, so no one keys them in twice.
  • Reconciliation: a nightly batch retries any failed syncs and keeps a full audit log.

Security

Your rate card and your buyers stay yours

Per-brand data isolation

Every brand's buyers, pricing, and orders live in their own boundary. No cross-brand reads, by design.

No open sign-up to wholesale pricing. Buyers apply, your staff approves, and access follows their region.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get access to Trade Studio?

Access is set up with the VARAi team rather than through open sign-up. Brands should use the contact form to get started. Retail buyers apply to a brand, and the brand's staff reviews and approves them before they see wholesale pricing.

What does Trade Studio cost?

Trade Studio is free for every brand, distributor and retailer, with unlimited frames and sharing. Each account gets a monthly AI allowance that resets on the 1st: 2,000 photo view labels, 25 photo clean-ups, 25 generated missing views and 5 3D models. If you need more, use "Request more" on your dashboard. Pay as you go past the allowance is coming soon. For large groups, contact us about Enterprise.

What is Trade Studio?

Trade Studio is the digital asset manager and wholesale platform built for eyewear brands. Every frame you sync arrives complete, with its marketing copy, technical specs, high-resolution images and interactive 3D. Reps run live demos, buyers order from the same catalogue, and the brand delivers the exact assets to each channel.

Who is Trade Studio for?

Eyewear brands that sell wholesale to opticians and retailers, their sales reps who take orders at trade shows or over a call, and the retail buyers who order from them.

Which accounting systems does Trade Studio connect to?

Each brand connects its own accounting system once through OAuth. QuickBooks is live, Xero is coming soon, and MYOB and NetSuite are planned. Confirmed orders post as invoices, and a nightly reconciliation retries anything that did not sync.

How do buyers get the assets for what they ordered?

When an order is confirmed, the buyer creates a Commerce Studio account and requests the collection. The brand approves the request, and the buyer downloads the full asset package (copy, specs, images and 3D) for exactly the SKUs they ordered. Access is granted per asset, not to the whole library.

Who can see wholesale pricing?

Only vetted buyers. Retailers apply, the brand's staff reviews and approves them, and only approved accounts see wholesale pricing. Each brand's buyers, pricing and orders are isolated from every other brand.

Can each brand have its own branded portal?

Yes. Every brand gets a branded subdomain such as yourbrand.trade.varai.ai, with its own logo, colors, catalog and meeting booking, so buyers see the brand rather than Trade Studio.

Does Trade Studio integrate with practice management systems?

Trade Studio offers direct connections to more than 40 practice management systems, so the systems your retail accounts already run can work with your catalog and orders.
