What happens when buyers help train the find-suppliers AI?
Our matching system keeps learning. Now we're inviting the people it's built for - buyers like you - to help steer it. Your sourcing experience plus our data, making the system match the right suppliers more accurately, together.
This means the system's direction is no longer decided by us alone. It is adjusted by frontline buyer feedback.
Why invite buyers to build it
We've run many sourcing rounds across 28 industries. The data told us one thing:
Buyers don't need another directory - they need suppliers that actually fit their product and spec.
No matter how good our matching engine is, if it gets the industry wrong, everything is wasted. And you cannot guess a buyer's real needs from an office chair.
So we changed direction: not "we built it, you use it", but "we build it together - you tell us if we're right".
What we co-build
Three concrete things:
- Matching. What makes a supplier "right" for your product type - you tell us what mattered in a good match, and we tune the engine.
- Verification. Which signals convince you a supplier is real and reachable - your judgment on our checks is the best training data.
- Fit. You say "the match missed this spec" or "these suppliers are actually peers, not candidates" - and we prioritize fixing that.
No pressure, no limits. Say whatever you think.
Signals, not empty talk
Cumulative data so far:
- 1.335M+ company pool, 760K+ reachable companies
- 28 industries covered across our company pool
- Every request, which suppliers we surfaced, and whether they responded - the system tracks these signals automatically. We don't guess who fits; the data tells us.
The buyers whose feedback is sharpest are exactly the ones worth inviting to co-build.
Honest, not fabricated
We do not invent buyer cases. At this stage we're "looking for co-building buyers" - if you join, you're among the first participants. Your feedback directly shapes how we find suppliers. Not just "trying it", but truly "co-building".
Email toko@51toko.com with what you want to source and what you think of the matches. A few sentences about your category and needs, and we tune the system for it. All data and your feedback feed back in.
Co-building is free for buyers.
