Buying assistant

An Assistant That Drafts Orders, Not Trend Reports

Trend reports tell you what happened. A working assistant finds verified supply, compares live availability and terms, and assembles the order for your review.

The insights ceiling

Most wholesale AI stops at reporting: dashboards about what sold, summaries of what trended. Useful, but it leaves the actual work — finding supply, checking terms, building the order — exactly where it always was: in your inbox and spreadsheets.

Ask like you would ask a colleague

Describe the buy in plain language: category, ship-to market, price ceiling, timing, what is already on the floor. Semantic search reads intent rather than keywords, and the assistant scopes results to verified brands that can actually deliver to you.

Every recommendation shows its work

Results come ranked with reasons: live availability, MOQ fit, wholesale price against your ceiling, ship-to coverage, size-run completeness. No black-box scores — each suggestion cites the operational evidence behind it.

The draft order is the deliverable

The assistant assembles a variant-level draft order across brands, checks style minimums and MOQs, and hands it to you for line-by-line review. You adjust, approve, and submit; the assistant never commits a dollar on its own.

Free for buyers, on purpose

Sourcing on Apparel Market costs buyers nothing — discovery, the assistant, saves, gated line sheet access, draft orders, and checkout handoff are all included for verified buyers. The marketplace wins when your order ships, not when you pay for tooling.

Use the public role paths to move into buyer onboarding, brand onboarding, or an operator conversation before gated workspace access.
