What is your idea?
Talk, type, or add a reference. ForgeLane organizes your request and preloads the details.
That's how much Western buyers overpay
because they lack factory-floor visibility.
No tool to verify a factory price. No system that gives a Western buyer the same intelligence a Mandarin-speaking native gets walking the factory floor. ForgeLane closes that gap.
The full sourcing workflow
— in one place
From first brief to client approval, every step is connected. No switching tools, no manual handoffs.
Brief to Project
Turn a client brief into a structured sourcing project in minutes
Paste meeting notes, a WhatsApp message, or a formal brief. AI reads it and extracts product type, specs, colors, logo requirements, order quantity, and risk flags — no manual data entry.
Search to Shortlist
Find and rank the best suppliers across Alibaba, 1688, and the open web
AI searches and scores every supplier match by price, MOQ, lead time, review rating, and customisation capability. Compare side-by-side and shortlist in one click — no spreadsheets.
Cost to Quote
Calculate your landed cost and build a client-ready quote in one flow
Enter the supplier unit cost. The calculator fills in freight, customs duty, packaging, and your margin automatically. AI then drafts the full client quote — line items, cover note, payment terms, timeline — ready to send.
Mockup to Approval
Send a factory spec sheet and a live client portal — client approves in one click
Generate a bilingual (EN/ZH) factory specification sheet with your client's logo applied and dimensions annotated. Share a portal link — clients view the mockup, quote, and project status, then approve or request changes without logging in.
From brief to signed quote — in hours, not days.
One platform. Every tool connected. No manual work between steps.
