Know Exactly Who You're Sourcing From
Forthsource gives e-commerce merchants access to official supplier verification data that was previously available only to large importers.
Why Supplier Verification Matters
Every year, e-commerce merchants lose money to fraudulent suppliers, misrepresented factories, and suppliers with undisclosed legal problems. Most vetting is done through Alibaba ratings and WhatsApp conversations — not exactly robust due diligence.
Forthsource cross-references suppliers against official Chinese government business registries. The AI trust score then synthesises registry data, trading history, and known risk indicators into a single 0–100 score.
The Landed Cost Problem
Merchants consistently underestimate their true cost of goods because they don't account for freight, duties, taxes, and insurance at the time of ordering. Forthsource's landed cost calculator makes it easy to see the full cost before committing.
