About StyleCore AI
StyleCore AI is more than just software — it’s a revolution for fashion boutique owners. Born from the real-world grit of a former boutique founder, StyleCore AI was created to solve the exact problems that slow down growth, waste money, and overwhelm even the most passionate fashion retailers.
We’re the first-ever AI-powered inventory and buying assistant built exclusively for boutiques — and we didn’t stop there. We’ve layered in tools that take the chaos out of trend forecasting, buying trips, content creation, supplier management, and customer retention. All in one place. All in real-time.
Our Mission:
To give boutique owners the tech edge they deserve so they can spend less time guessing and more time growing.
We’re here to empower dreamers, founders, fashion risk-takers, and independents with the same kind of tools once reserved for big-box retail giants.
Why We’re Different
- We forecast trends before they pop, not after.
- We stop dead stock before it happens.
- We make content creation effortless with AI-powered graphics and captions tailored to your boutique’s brand.
- We turn market trips into strategic wins.
- We give you confidence in every buying decision because we’ve been where you are.

About the Founder
StyleCore AI was founded by Monica Hawk-Becker, a visionary entrepreneur and former boutique owner with over 25 years of experience in the fashion industry. Monica launched her first high-profile boutique in Kansas City, Missouri, and later expanded into Southern California, building a name for herself as a bold curator of emerging style, unique pieces, and personalized service.
After living the fast-paced, all-consuming life of a boutique owner, she often thought, “If only I had a tool that could help me make smarter buying decisions, track inventory effortlessly, and actually predict what would sell — I could’ve had more time to create, connect, and grow.”
That thought never left her. So years later, she built it.
StyleCore AI is the solution she wishes she had — created for every boutique owner who’s ever felt overwhelmed, burned out, or just needed a smarter way to run their business.
Her passion for fashion, combined with her drive to simplify the lives of fellow entrepreneurs, led her to develop a platform that merges data, style, and intuitive tools — so that boutique owners can finally have both freedom and flow in their business.
“I built StyleCore AI for every boutique owner who dreams big, works late, and deserves smarter tools. This system is about making your life easier, your business stronger, and your growth unstoppable.”
Built for Boutiques. Backed by Data.
StyleCore AI was created with one mission: to make inventory smarter, buying easier, and fashion more intuitive for boutique owners everywhere.
No more guesswork. No more missed trends. Just powerful, easy-to-use tools that help you grow stronger, sell faster, and stay one step ahead—always. Your boutique deserves the best. This is Style, Simplified.
