Atoire raises $9.5M seed to sell luxury-factory goods without the markup

Atoire raised a $9.5 million seed round on August 27, 2026, backed by a16z Speedrun, Night Capital, and Jeremy Liew. The AI-powered fashion brand, co-founded by Redouane Ramdani and Luis Angulo, connects luxury manufacturers directly with consumers — selling items from the same factories and materials as high-end brands, minus the traditional retail markup. The model targets a category where DTC disruption has historically stalled.
