1. Create an account on the Cala platform (available at ca.la) and set up your brand profile.
2. Start a new project and define the product category, styles, and initial ideas.
3. Generate designs with the AI tool by entering text prompts or uploading sketches; refine them until the vision looks right.
4. Invite team members and collaborate using comments, @ mentions, and real‑time feedback on each design.
5. Assign tasks and deadlines to keep every step—from design approvals to sampling—on schedule.

Cala operates on a freemium model, offering limited access to its core tools at no cost. For brands that need advanced features, higher collaboration limits, and full access to manufacturing and logistics networks, Cala provides custom pricing tailored to the specific scale and requirements of the business. Because plans are tailored, the best way to get up‑to‑date pricing is to contact Cala directly or visit the official website.
