Sourcia

About this app

Photograph any product. Sourcia searches 1688 — the Chinese-language wholesale platform most Western buyers cannot read — and returns closely matching public listings with an honest evidence label on every lead. Free to start: 5 searches a day, no account required. A visual match is a research lead, not a verified factory. Sourcia always shows you which is which before you spend money. WHAT YOU GET FROM ONE PHOTO • 1688 product and seller listings matched to your photo, ranked by visual similarity — not by who paid for placement • Product and factory pictures taken from the seller's own published pages, kept separate so you can tell a catalogue shot from the premises • A sourcing card with a Chinese-keyword RFQ draft, plus the specs you are still missing before it is safe to contact anyone • A side-by-side supplier comparison with an honest evidence label on every row • Free sourcing calculators — landed cost per unit with your own duty and freight numbers, and CBM / chargeable weight from a packing list. Offline, no account. • No photo? Describe the product and search from an AI-drawn sample — evidence labels on every lead. • Seller-published credentials on each supplier page — certifications, company scale, and named partners — clearly labelled, never called verified unless a person verified it WHY THE EVIDENCE LABEL MATTERS Alibaba shows you the storefront. Sourcia shows you the factory leads behind the product — and tells you how much of each lead is actually proven. Most sourcing tools show you a supplier and let you assume it is verified. Sourcia does the opposite: every lead starts as a public signal, clearly marked as one, and stops being a signal only once a person has actually checked it. A supplier check reads live marketplace pages. WHEN YOU WANT A HUMAN CHECK: EXPERT DESK Ask the Expert Desk and a China-side operator reviews the seller's published records, asks in Chinese for a current quote, and returns an evidence-labelled report. Supplier price and Sourcia's fee are always shown separately. Human work, during China business hours, when intake is open. SUBSCRIPTIONS Sourcia offers three optional monthly auto-renewable subscriptions: • Lite, US$4.99 per month: 50 Sourcia credits each day • Pro, US$9.99 per month: 100 Sourcia credits each day, plus 2 Expert Desk points per billing period • Max, US$19.99 per month: 1,000 Sourcia credits each day, plus 10 Expert Desk points per billing period One-time credit packs of 100, 500, or 2,000 credits are also available and do not renew.

It is not a marketplace, an escrow service, a customs broker, or a legal advisor, and it does not sell you the goods. Public-signal leads are a starting point for your own diligence, not a recommendation. Sourcia is an independent buyer-side tool. It is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by 1688, Alibaba, or any marketplace it reads.

Seller contact routes you can actually use. • Every phone number and email on a factory dossier now says where it came from and what was checked — confirmed by Expert Desk, or read from the seller's own page with the mail server verified. Numbers are formatted for dialling from abroad. • The seller's chat link, shop and contact page on the marketplace are now contact routes too. • When a seller's phone or email is not published, Sourcia says so and can ask the seller for it through Expert Desk; the confirmed contact is saved with the lead.

Momentum comes from crawler snapshots for the tracked storefront. “Viral growth signal” means unusually fast recent rating gains; it is an indicator, not download data.
