Straight answers.
What each service includes, what to send, and what we don't promise.
Are these reports about my own product?
The $49 Personalized Product Report and the $249 Personal Launch Consultation investigate the product you submit — send a photo and a purchase or supplier link. The free sample and the $29 Weekly Case Report are products SourceVerdict selects, not personalized to you.
What is the free sample?
The Everyday Tech Pouch — a real, complete 12-page investigation with an interactive report and a downloadable PDF. Enter your email and we send a link to the full report. It's free, and never a $29 purchase.
What does the $49 Personalized Product Report include?
The complete investigation of one product you submit (one market, one channel): verified visual matches and same-category alternatives, observed prices and qualified demand signals, review themes and unmet needs, a fair sell-as-sourced route plus an optional custom-design suggestion, preliminary sourcing/price/contribution scenarios, and risks with next tests. We don't promise raw data exports, supplier agreement, exact competitor sales, a physical sample, a loan or a fixed page count.
What is the $29 Weekly Case Report?
A researched report on a product we select and publish — not personalized to you. New cases are planned weekly and each is $29 when released. A case is purchasable only once it's published; the free pouch sample is never a $29 checkout.
What makes the $249 service different?
It adds a personal consultation, agreed supplier validation (identity/listing/document checks and a quote-comparability review, with findings and gaps), a development and small-order negotiation plan, a launch budget and cash-flow/downside assessment, and relevant business finance options by borrower country and stage. Format, timing, document checks and any supplier-contact authority are confirmed before payment.
Is funding included?
Financial consultation and suggestions are included in the $249 service. Capital and financing approval are not — SourceVerdict is not a lender, and provider eligibility, terms and approval apply.
Do I have to customize the product?
No. We evaluate selling it as sourced and an optional improvement fairly. Selling the original design can be the right answer, and we don't assume a custom design commands a higher price.
Are supplier outreach and physical samples included?
The $249 service includes agreed supplier validation — identity/listing/document checks and a quote-comparability review — plus a negotiation plan. Goods, physical samples, third-party testing, factory audits, procurement and any direct outreach beyond the agreed scope are not automatic. A supplier's listed MOQ alone is not the verdict, and negotiated quantities need actual supplier agreement.
How do you estimate sales?
We use available demand evidence and research tools, with sources, dates and limitations stated, and label numbers Observed, Modeled or Next to verify. Competitor estimates are not a forecast or guarantee of your own sales.
What should I send?
A product photo and a purchase or supplier link, plus your business/borrower country, selling market, channel and the decision you need. One reference plus a description is enough to begin an inquiry.
How long does it take?
We confirm timing with you when we confirm the scope, rather than promise a fixed turnaround up front.
What happens after I submit?
We review your submission, confirm the scope, and send a secure payment link before any work begins. After payment we prepare and deliver your report — and, for the $249 service, a personal consultation. Payment and delivery are separate, verified steps.
