Pioneering an end-to-end digital pathway from sample creation to immersive "try-before-you-buy" experiences HONG KONG, July 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Tencent Cloud, the cloud business of global technology company Tencent, today announced a strategic collaboration with Tokyo-based entertainment production and digital fashion studio forGIFT Inc. Together, the two companies aim to bring AI-powered virtual fitting solutions to Japan's fashion industry—bridging back-end production and front-end retail experiences through a unified, digital-first workflow. Founded in 2017, forGIFT Inc. has supported leading fashion and lifestyle brands including X-girl, DAZN, and Anker, helping them reduce apparel sampling costs by approximately 20% while delivering immersive experience in the metaverse. As the company sought to scale its growing archive of image assets for e-commerce, Tencent Cloud emerged as a strategic partner—offering outfit changes in just 10 seconds and seamless API integration with shopping carts and online storefronts, all while maintaining high interoperability across consumer-facing systems. This prompted forGIFT Inc. to explore how such technology could be applied to their own creative planning proposals, opening new possibilities for client engagement and solution design. Through the partnership, forGIFT Inc. integrated Tencent Cloud's advanced portrait segmentation and image generation technologies—including the "ChangeClothes" Virtual Try-On API and Portrait-Segmentation SDK—into its proprietary "sture" 3DCG fashion sampling pipeline. The resulting solution enables both rapid digital sample creation and real-time, hyper-personalized virtual fitting experiences—dramatically reducing the time, cost, and environmental impact of traditional sampling workflows. Building on this foundation, Tencent Cloud's low-latency infrastructure and Tencent Real-Time Communication SDKs support interactive "shop-along" styling sessions and influencer livestreams with sub-300 ms delay—delivering immersive, real-time try-on experiences for today's digital shoppers. These innovations are designed to meet fast-growing demand as Japan's fashion e-commerce, custom apparel, and metaverse segments continue to expand at double-digit rates. With sustainability and digital transformation shaping the future of fashion, the collaboration between Tencent Cloud and forGIFT Inc. directly addresses a critical market demand—one that no rival has yet met with a unified, locally hosted solution. By combining forGIFT Inc.'s 3DCG production expertise with Tencent Cloud's AI-powered virtual fitting capabilities, the partnership delivers a first-of-its-kind, end-to-end pathway from digital garment creation to immersive, consumer-ready "try-before-you-buy" shopping.

Tencent Cloud provides ongoing technical and operational guidance, from onboarding brand apparel to advising on demo execution and display optimization. These efforts have already accelerated adoption and supported forGIFT Inc.'s broader growth strategy. The joint solution is now being promoted to both independent labels and major fashion houses across Japan, with broader rollouts planned throughout 2025. By 2026, forGIFT Inc. aims to scale its end-to-end virtual try-on service to support at least 50 Japanese fashion brands, helping reduce both sample costs and carbon waste across the industry. Hanson Liu, Head of Tencent Cloud Japan, said, "Our collaboration with forGIFT Inc. reflects Tencent Cloud's commitment to enabling smarter, experience-driven retail journeys. Together, we are delivering a locally hosted, turn-key solution that helps fashion brands reduce sampling lead times and cost, lower their environmental impact, and engage consumers through immersive, real-time virtual interaction." Takafumi Shirai, President of forGIFT Inc., said, "This collaboration marks a major step forward in redefining how digital fashion is experienced and delivered. By working closely with Tencent Cloud, we have been able to push the boundaries of digital sampling and consumer engagement. It has been a pleasure throughout, and we look forward to expanding our efforts together."

Tencent Cloud Newsletter Featuring Gartner Research: Data+AI Enabled NextGen Data Intelligence Platform
HONG KONG, July 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- On June 28, Tencent Cloud released a newsletter titled Data + AI: Build NextGen Data Intelligence Platform featuring Gartner® research, analyzing the pain points enterprises face in the era of generative AI. It also provides a comprehensive overview of Tencent Cloud's Data + AI product matrix which offers integrated solutions to help enterprises tackle these challenges. The newsletter points out that in the AI era, the focus of corporate competition is shifting from "model competition" to "competition for high-value data assets" as data quality has often become the core bottleneck in AI development. Enterprises urgently need to build systematic data engineering capabilities to unlock the potential of AI through continuous data iteration and optimization, rather than frequent model adjustments. The newsletter also cites how traditional data platforms face significant challenges in meeting the demands of generative AI. The challenges include large amounts of unstructured data lying dormant, disconnections between data and AI development leading to long deployment cycles, batch processing struggling to deliver real-time responses, inconsistent data standards across departments causing governance challenges and compliance risks, and business personnel highly dependent on IT for data access, resulting in slow responses. Gartner research shows that organizations deploying retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines for their generative AI applications need access to unstructured data, which constitutes 70% to 90% of the data in organizations today [1]. By 2027, the IT spending focused on multistructured data management will account for 40% of total IT spending on data management technologies and services. [2] To address these challenges, the newsletter proposes that enterprises need to build a Data + AI integrated platform. The key capabilities of such a platform include the composability of data and AI technologies, end-to-end lifecycle development from data to AI and business integration, processing and enhancement of multimodal data, and unified metadata-driven governance and compliance. Among them, the composability of data and AI technologies has become a core capability. LLMs undergo generational upgrades every 3 to 5 months, and technologies such as vector search and lakehouse architectures are advancing rapidly. In this context, enterprises need to build a "pluggable" architecture. Meanwhile, the end-to-end lifecycle from Data to AI management has become a standard practice, involving data processing, model construction, and business integration. For example, in the financial industry, real-time data pipelines are used to integrate multi-source data, enabling rapid iteration of risk models and reducing the compliance response time from months to hours. Multimodal data processing capabilities define the upper limit of value. AI applications need to integrate structured and unstructured data to transform diverse types of data, such as text, images, and videos, into "intelligent fuel." For example, retail companies can integrate online and offline multimodal data to create 360-degree customer profiles, driving a more than 30% increase in precision marketing efficiency. In addition, the introduction of Agentic Analytics enables intelligent automated decision-making. For example, AI agents are used to identify and repair faulty data and dynamically track data lineage. Tencent Cloud is committed to building efficient and intelligent enterprise-level infrastructure for enterprises through the deep integration of data and AI technologies. The Data + AI capacity of Tencent Cloud takes data management as its core and integrates products and services such as AI computing power, data storage and analysis, data governance, security management, AI model training, and real-time decision-making. It provides an end-to-end solution from data ingestion to intelligent applications. According to the 2024 Gartner Data and Analytics Governance Survey, almost half of the respondents identify "difficulty in standardizing data across different departments/BUs" as among their organizations' top D&A governance-related challenges. [3] In practical implementation, Tencent Cloud WeData one-stop intelligent data platform enables enterprises to seamlessly manage the entire data-to-AI lifecycle. At the data layer, DataOps ensures real-time integration of multi-source data and automated data pipelining, while built-in intelligent quality monitoring intercepts abnormal data. This is combined with a unified semantic layer that consolidates enterprise-level metrics and data models. At the AI layer, MLOps integrates with popular machine learning frameworks to support the automation of key processes, from feature engineering and model training to online inference. Building on a unified data development experience, Tencent Cloud's ChatBI and data analysis agent significantly lower the barriers to data applications. Business personnel can automatically generate visual reports through simple conversations, increasing demand response speed by 10 times. Tencent Cloud WeData Agent, powered by LLMs, proactively executes tasks such as automatically fixing data pipeline issues and predicting storage bottlenecks to allow for early scaling, showcasing the practical value of agent-driven analytics. In the future, the Data + AI platform will evolve toward natural language interaction, AI-driven automated optimization, and deep integration with generative AI. Gartner forecasts that by 2028, 80% of GenAI business applications will be developed on organizations' existing data management platforms, reducing implementation complexity and time to delivery by 50%.
