SourceRoom

Start a sourcing request from a photo, screenshot or sketch and turn the visible product features into an editable trade brief.

How it works

SourceRoom is designed for the common situation where a buyer knows the type of product they want but does not yet have a complete written specification. A visual reference can be analysed into an editable draft so the buyer can refine the requirement before submitting it to suppliers.

  • Use a photo, screenshot or sketch as a visual reference
  • Identifies likely product type and visible features
  • Creates an editable sourcing draft rather than an instruction to copy another brand
  • Buyer reviews the specification before it is submitted

A visual reference, not a copying instruction

SourceRoom is built to describe visible characteristics and help create a lawful sourcing brief. The buyer remains responsible for reviewing the generated draft, and suppliers should raise intellectual-property, compliance or manufacturability concerns before quoting.
