Functional areas described by the company include inventory management (tracking lots, warehouses, stock levels, transfers, shipping activity, and supporting documents); sourcing and evaluation (sourcing plans, candidate lot organization, sample coordination, and capture of quality information); contracting and coordination (contract creation, signature collection, invoicing, confirmation of responsibilities, and preparation of transactions for fulfillment); and sales through an online marketplace where available inventory is listed, sample requests are handled, and inquiries are answered. The company positions the product as workflow automation that tracks each step of the sales and logistics process from order to delivery and maps progress in a collaborative workspace, with the stated aim of reducing manual work, limiting errors, and supporting cross-border trade.
