For bag factories, sourcing teams and designers.
Find the right material. Skip the endless search.
TaoLiao is building an AI-assisted path from a material request to real supplier options you can compare, confirm and sample.
The problem
Finding material takes too much back-and-forth.
WeChat messages, sample books and market visits. Specs differ, prices go stale and useful options are hard to compare.
The planned sourcing workflow
One request. A clearer path to samples.
- Show the need
Photo or a short description
- Compare supply
Specs, minimum order, price and unknowns
- Ask & sample
Supplier confirmation before a decision
Preliminary business model
Start with reliable supply. Earn through useful tools.
Basic sourcing and supplier listings are planned to be free. Later: paid factory team tools, supplier tools and verification services. Pricing and willingness to pay remain unvalidated.
Where we stand
- M1Complete
- Internal Scout loop: supplier, booth, listing draft, photos, material and commercial fields, evidence and save/resume.
- M2Active
- Target: approximately 20 real Shiling fabric listings from supplier color cards, with overview and close-up photos and dated sources. Review record quality, capture time and friction.
Help us test this in the real world.
Seeking mentor feedback, factories with a real sourcing request and introductions to Shiling fabric suppliers.
Magic Demo uses illustrative data, not verified supply. It sends no real inquiries or sample requests.
