How it works

Brand brief + ten supplier filters → ranked matches

The framework starts one step upstream of sourcing. Dimension 0 is a brand brief — product-consumer fit, captured as free text — that grounds every later spec choice. Then Dimensions 1–10 are the buyer-intent filters, each mapped 1:1 to a supplier-schema field. Click any dimension to expand.

1
Buyer intent
"I want to make 200 oversized cotton tees, 240+ GSM, ivory + sage, $4 landed, US-bound."
2
Brand brief + 10-dim extraction
Dim 0 captures buyer + need + occasion. Dims 1–10 capture product, fabric, qty, channel, geography, timeline, compliance, customization, samples, trust.
3
Filter against supplier graph
Each dimension maps to a supplier-schema field. AND/OR logic returns a candidate set, ranked by fit score.
4
Top 3 ranked matches
Trade-off notes, trust signals, first-message preview ready to fire.

Q0
Brand brief — product-consumer fit (does not filter suppliers — grounds Dims 1–10)
→ free-text brief · captured once, played back when buyer drifts

The brief before the brief. James Cunningham, brand-build advisor: "It's a product-consumer match. It doesn't change the supplier-brand owner matching — it's the step before it in the value chain."

Two ways in (run whichever applies)

  • Brand-first: You've got Brand X. Have you defined the right product around the occasion they'd wear it for?
  • Consumer-first: You're serving Consumer X. Have you defined the right product around a proven need?

The 6 sub-prompts

  • 1. Intended buyer — gender
  • 2. Intended buyer — age
  • 3. Climate / vibe of their targeted consumers' market
  • 4. Stage in life
  • 5. Functionality wanted — the need they're looking to sort out by using this product
  • 6. Why are they buying this from you specifically?

What Frenzee does with it

  • Drift detector — every later spec change cross-checked against the brief. "You said warm-climate Gen Z streetwear, but you're spec'ing 240gsm — that reads light-tee, not heavyweight hoodie."
  • Marketing payload — the "why from you specifically" line is the seed for the launch tagline + first ad copy. Played back when the brand goes live.
  • Coherent supplier message — the brief informs the first message to the shortlisted suppliers, so context lands in one shot instead of a back-and-forth.
Q1

Q2
Material — look + feel descriptors
→ supplier.fabric_strengths · layman→industry translate

The translation engine. The buyer says "soft and breathable for summer" — the AI maps to cotton, linen, modal, bamboo viscose and intersects with each supplier's fabric strengths.

Sample of the 60+ row translation table

  • Soft, breathable, summery → cotton lawn, voile, linen, modal, bamboo viscose, rayon
  • Drapey, slip-feel → silk charmeuse, cupro, viscose satin, modal jersey
  • Crisp, structured → cotton poplin, twill, oxford, ponte, taffeta
  • Stretchy, body-hugging → jersey + 5% elastane, ponte, scuba, performance interlock
  • Warm, cozy, winter → wool melton, cashmere, fleece, French terry brushed, sherpa
  • Heavyweight tee → 220–300 GSM jersey, ringspun cotton, Supima
  • Sweater-like, no itch → cotton knit, merino wool, bamboo blend, viscose-nylon knit
  • Denim — soft, broken-in → 9–11 oz right-hand twill, stretch denim 1–2% elastane
  • Activewear / wicking → nylon-spandex (Supplex), poly-spandex interlock, brushed poly knit
  • Lingerie / bra fabric → stretch lace, mesh tulle, microfiber jersey, power mesh
  • Sheer / chiffon → polyester chiffon, silk georgette, mesh, organza
  • Faux leather jacket → PU on knit/woven (drape), PVC on woven (cheaper)
  • Eco / sustainable → GOTS organic cotton, recycled poly (GRS), Tencel/Lyocell
  • Velvet-looking → velvet, velour, plush, chenille
  • Compression / shapewear → high-elastane jersey (15–25%), power mesh

Naturals

  • Cotton (Pima, Supima, Egyptian, organic, BCI, ringspun, combed)
  • Linen, hemp, ramie
  • Silk (mulberry, charmeuse, chiffon, georgette, dupioni)
  • Wool (merino, lambswool, cashmere, alpaca, mohair)

Cellulosics + synthetics

  • Viscose, modal, micromodal, Tencel/Lyocell, cupro, bamboo viscose
  • Polyester (PET, recycled rPET, microfiber)

  • Satin/sateen, dobby, jacquard, velvet, corduroy
  • Specialty: waffle, seersucker, oxford, tweed, melton
Q3
Quantity — how many for this run?
→ supplier.MOQ · supplier.MOQ ≤ buyer.qty

Different garments have different MOQ economics. The MOQ tier matrix by product category drives factory-class + flexibility filter.

Sample / capsule

  • Cotton T-shirt (printed): 30–100 / color
  • Hoodies / sweatshirts: 100–300
  • Sweaters / knitwear (machine): 100–200
  • Woven dresses / blouses: 50–200
  • Leather goods (bags): 50–100

Standard runs

  • Cotton T-shirt (cut-and-sew): 500–1,000
  • Polo shirts: 300–500
  • Denim / jeans: 500–1,000 / wash
  • Activewear (poly-spandex): 500–1,000
  • Hats / accessories: 300–500

Scale

  • Hoodies: 1,500+
  • Wool coats: 1,000+
  • Activewear: 2,000+
  • Athletic shoes: 3,000+

Flexibility heuristic

  • Flexible: vertically integrated small mills (Tirupur), wholesale-cluster factories (Guangzhou), seasonal-slack windows
  • Rigid: mass-production factories (Vietnam Tier-1), silk mills, fully-fashioned knit specialists
Q4
Channel + Price — where you sell, what you charge
→ supplier.FOB_range · back-calc target FOB

Margin stack drives realistic FOB target. Buyer states retail + channel; AI back-calculates the FOB band.

FOB target by channel

  • DTC (Shopify own site): 12–20% of retail · brand 70–80% gross
  • Etsy: 25–40% · net 30–50% after fees
  • Amazon FBA: 18–30% · 25–40% net
  • Wholesale to indie: 25–35% · 40–55% on wholesale
  • Department / specialty: 15–22% · 30–45% net
  • Through middleman: 20–28% · 65–75% if DTC
  • Marketplace (Amazon/Tmall): 20–30% · 25–40% net
  • Luxury / premium boutique: 8–15% retail · 60–75% gross

Rule-of-thumb stack

  • Wholesale = 2.0–2.5× FOB landed
  • MSRP = 2.2–2.5× wholesale
  • DTC vertical retail = 4× FOB landed (Everlane / Warby model)
  • Example: FOB $10 → wholesale $25 → MSRP $60–75 traditional
Q5
Geography — where it's made + where it sells

  • Sample lead: 7–21 days typical
  • Bulk lead: 45–90 days FOB · 60 days median
  • Express / Ready-to-Ship: in-stock SKU + minor modification
  • Hard launch deadline: framework backs out 2–3 week buffer for shipping + customs

Seasonality blackouts

  • Chinese New Year: 14–21 days closed · 6–8 week total disruption (mid-Jan–early Mar)
  • Tet (Vietnam): end-Jan / early-Feb · same pattern as CNY
  • Diwali (India): late-Oct / Nov · 2–3 weeks disruption
Q7
Compliance — required certifications
→ supplier.compliance_stack · supplier.certs ⊇ required_certs

Buyer's market auto-derives required certs. 3-state filter (verified vs PDF-uploaded vs none). 15 major certs the framework recognizes.

  • Outdoor / performance: Bluesign + Higg FEM
  • Premium DTC: OEKO-TEX 100 + (BSCI or SEDEX)
  • Children's: CPSIA + OEKO-TEX 100 Class I
Q8
Customization — logos, colors, sizing, prints, embellishment
→ supplier.vertical_integration · capability tier match

9 customization vectors. Each drives sample iteration count, MOQ uplift, and which factories can fulfill.

Vertical integration tier

  • CMT: you supply fabric; cheapest labor
  • Full-package: factory sources fabric; higher unit cost
  • Vertical-with-mill: factory has own mill; tightest control, small-batch friendly
  • Trading company: middleman, NOT manufacturer — auto-flagged

Language + response

  • Mandarin only → translation layer fires
  • Mandarin + English (export-side) → standard match
  • Cantonese (HK / Guangdong) → premium for HK-buyer fit
  • <1h: Fast Response tier · <12h: standard · >24h: red flag

How everything you saw was built

Where the data came from + how the matches are picked

Nothing in the live demo is fabricated. Every supplier, FOB, MOQ, and audit signal traces back to a real listing on Alibaba's showroom pages. This page documents exactly how — so you can verify against source.

1 · Where the supplier graph comes from

📦
Source: Alibaba.com showroom + IndiaMART directory
→ ~19K records · ~12.5K unique supplier companies · 39 countries

All supplier data was pulled from Alibaba's category showroom pages — the same pages a buyer would land on if they searched a category like "cotton-t-shirt" directly on Alibaba. We didn't build relationships, we didn't pay for premium data — we scraped what's publicly visible to anyone with a browser.

Per-record fields

  • Supplier name + Alibaba storefront URL (so you can click through to verify)
  • Country of origin
  • Years on Alibaba (supplier_year)
  • Trading-company flag (manufacturer vs middleman, auto-flagged in red)
  • Gold Supplier + Verified Supplier flags from Alibaba
  • Third-party auditor (TÜV Rheinland · SGS · Intertek · BV)
  • Promotion tags (Ready to Ship, etc.)
  • Reviews: star score + review count
  • Price ladder: tiered FOB by quantity bracket — verbatim from the listing
  • Provide products: the supplier's listed product strengths

What we did NOT scrape

  • Buyer messaging history (private)
  • Internal Alibaba metrics like "response time" beyond what's public
  • Anything paywalled or behind login
  • Image assets — text data only

Tools used

  • Scrapling (anti-bot Python scraping library)
  • Stealth browser fingerprinting + slow-paced pagination
  • Per-category resume logic (script can pause + restart without dups)

Run timestamp

  • Initial scrape: 2026-05-06
  • Latest data refresh: 2026-05-08
  • Coverage: 486 distinct category queries (cotton-t-shirt, hoodie, denim-jeans, etc.)
  • Pages per query: capped at the first 5 showroom pages (~150 listings/category) for breadth-over-depth

2 · How the chat extracts the brief

🤖
Multi-turn agent — Kimi K2 (text) + Claude Sonnet 4.5 (vision)
→ structured tool-call into 16+ dimensions, no free-text parsing

The chat isn't a single "pull info from one big prompt" — it's a turn-by-turn agent walking the brand-brief framework one question at a time. The model decides each turn whether to ask the next question, render a fabric picker, or call match_brief with all dimensions filled.

Models in use

  • Text turns: moonshotai/kimi-k2-0905 via OpenRouter — picked specifically for native-fluent Mandarin sourcing-trade idiom (我司, 起订量, 大货, 打样, 克重)
  • Vision turns: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.5 via OpenRouter — used when user attaches a sketch/mood image; reads silhouette, fabric texture cues, palette, brand tier

Interview order

  • 1. Product type
  • 2. Direct customer (gender, age, persona)
  • 3. Brand reference (Everlane, COS, etc.)
  • 4. Ideal retail price → FOB band auto-calculated (retail/4–retail/5)
  • 5. Audience deeper (lifestyle, climate, values)
  • 6. Fabric / texture (visual picker — see below)
  • 7. Color palette
  • 8. Visual references (optional, image attach)

Production decomposition

  • Complex briefs (e.g. "tees with college logos, no inventory") trigger a decomposition turn BEFORE intake continues
  • Project split into: factory_in_network · factory_out_of_network · talent_needed · external_service · user_handles
  • Honest framing — "We don't have POD fulfillment, here's Printful/Gelato/Printify" beats fake matches

Fabric picker (visual translation)

  • Non-fashion users can't articulate "240gsm fleece-back" — so we don't ask
  • Picker shows 3 layers per chip: plain English ("Buttery soft"), brand reference ("like Lululemon Align"), factory spec underneath ("260gsm nylon-spandex 4-way stretch")
  • User taps → factory spec flows into the brief as their answer
  • Curated for 8 highest-volume categories; generic lightweight/midweight/heavyweight fallback for the rest

3 · How the 3 matches are picked

⚖️
Hard filters → fit score → rank → top 3
→ deterministic, no LLM in the ranking loop

After the brief is extracted, the supplier graph is filtered + scored client-side using a deterministic ranker — so the same brief always returns the same matches. No LLM is in the picking loop. This is a feature, not a limitation.

Hard filters (suppliers excluded if any fail)

  • Category match: supplier.search_query === brief.category
  • MOQ-fit: supplier.moq ≤ max(brief.qty × 1.5, 2000)
  • Has FOB data: supplier.fob_low_usd != null
  • Trading-company excluded: !supplier.is_trading_company (manufacturers only)

Fit score (higher = better)

score =
  trust + audit + years
  − fobGap × 1.5

where:
  fobGap = |fob − target| / target
  trust  = review_score × log10(reviews + 1)
  audit  = 0.4 if auditor exists, else 0
  years  = min(supplier_year / 10, 1.5) × 0.2

Why those weights

  • FOB gap is the single biggest factor (1.5×) — the buyer told us their target; missing it badly is a deal-breaker
  • Trust = review score × log(review count) — log dampens "5★ from 2 reviews" vs "4.7★ from 200 reviews"
  • Audit (+0.4) is a nudge, not a gate — many great factories don't have third-party audits, especially smaller mills
  • Years is mild (max 0.3) — capped because new factories aren't penalized as harshly as fly-by-night

Top 3 picks

  • Sorted by score, top 3 returned
  • Each card carries a trade-off note ("+18% FOB but 3 sample iterations included" / "best price but trading-company") — the AI explains the trade so the buyer doesn't have to read tea leaves
  • Position 1 = ★ Best fit · Position 2 = ⚖ Quality match · Position 3 = 💡 Alternative

4 · The first-message draft

✉️
Brand-led intro · EN + Mandarin sourcing-trade idiom · auto-translates supplier replies
→ generated once per brief, ready to copy + send

Once a top match is picked, the agent drafts the first outreach message in English + Simplified Chinese. The pattern follows what 30-year Asia sourcing operators actually use: open with brand context (who/why/what need), THEN the spec, THEN 4 numbered questions, close warm. Generic supplier reference so the message can fire to any of the top 3.

Why this matters

Suppliers triage hundreds of inquiries per week. A brief that opens with "we're sourcing 200 cotton tees" looks like a tire-kicker. A brief that opens with "we're building a Singapore-based basics label for sustainability-conscious professionals…" reads as a real brand who's done the work. Higher-quality factories ALWAYS prioritize real brands.
