Changshin and Palantir Partner to Connect Footwear Development and Factory Operations with Data and AI

The collaboration will improve end-to-end visibility across development and production, helping teams coordinate decisions, respond to issues earlier, and learn from factory outcomes.

BUSAN, South Korea & MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Changshin and Palantir Technologies Inc. (Nasdaq: PLTR) today announced a partnership to apply Palantir Foundry and AIP across Changshin’s development and production operations. The collaboration is intended to connect information and workflows from footwear development and sample planning through factory production, giving teams greater visibility across the end-to-end process.

The partnership builds on a recent AgentCamp, where Changshin engineers and Palantir worked together with live Changshin data to demonstrate initial workflows.

The next phase will build on these starting points to connect development decisions with factory planning and execution. By bringing information and feedback together across the process, Changshin teams aim to identify issues earlier, reduce handoff friction, and use production outcomes to inform future decisions.

CI Nam, CEO at Changshin, said: “Decisions made in development define how we operate on the factory floor. We want to connect those decisions with production feedback so our teams can spot issues earlier, coordinate more effectively, and carry what they learn into the next model. This partnership will help us turn our deep manufacturing expertise into distinctive capabilities unique to Changshin, embedding data and AI into the way we work.”

Ryan Taylor, CRO and CLO at Palantir, said: “Behind every shoe Changshin produces is a series of decisions, from development and sample planning to the factory floor. Together, we’re deploying Foundry and AIP to transform end-to-end processes, building on Changshin’s deep expertise, and keeping Changshin in control of how AI is applied, every step of the way.”
