The process

From a photo and a link to a launch plan.

You send the product you want to sell. We investigate it, compare selling it as sourced with optional improvements, and hand back launch options, financial guidance and a clear next step — with the evidence attached.

STEP 01

Send your product

A product photo and a purchase or supplier link. A description works if you don't have a link yet — one reference can start it.

STEP 02

Confirm scope & pay

We confirm exactly what we'll investigate and any missing details, then send a secure payment link. No payment before scope.

STEP 03

We investigate

Competition, demand, reviews, pricing, suppliers and launch economics — comparing as sourced with optional improvements.

STEP 04

Choose your next test

You get launch options, financial consultation for your service, and a recommended next step you can act on.

One reference can start an inquiry, but it doesn't guarantee enough evidence to finish without follow-up. We'll tell you what else we need before research begins.

What you can send

Start with a photo and a link.

Send both if you can — a photo helps us find visual matches, and a link confirms the exact item. Either one gets us started.

01

A product photo

Used with Google/Amazon Lens to find comparable products.

02

A purchase link

An Amazon/marketplace listing you're considering.

03

A supplier link

An Alibaba/AliExpress or other supplier reference.

04

Or just an idea

A clear description of the product and who it's for.

What we deliver

Two ways to launch — investigated side by side.

We never assume you should customize. We compare selling the product as sourced against a review-led improvement, and show the costs and prices to test for each.

As sourced

The economics of selling it as it comes — pricing, competition and margin.

Optional development

When reviews reveal a real unmet need, a practical concept and supplier brief.

Negotiation

Questions and messages to discuss price, small first orders and samples.

Financial consultation

A launch budget, cash-flow view and financing options for your stage.

Google/Amazon Lens matches help find comparable products; a report always names any unavailable source and the fallback used. We don't fabricate matches, sales data or testimonials.

The verdict language

What GO and PASS mean.

GO

Worth a defined next step.

The evidence supports a specific action — often a sample or a small pilot, with named conditions. A GO for a pilot is not a GO for committing inventory.

PASS

Not on the current evidence.

This version isn't worth the spend yet — the report explains what would need to change. A supported PASS is a valid, useful outcome.

A GO or PASS applies to a defined action. A supplier's listed minimum order quantity does not automatically mean PASS — we explore practical pilot quantities and negotiation. Customization is never assumed.

Data & sources

Evidence first, with its limits.

We start from observable evidence — marketplace listings, retail pricing, reviews and supplier pages, each dated. We use research tools where available and permitted, and state sources, dates and limitations. Competitor sales estimates are not a forecast of your own sales, and we deliver commercial interpretation, not raw dashboards.

Important

Decision support — not a guarantee.

SourceVerdict reduces uncertainty before you commit money. It does not guarantee sales, margins, supplier concessions, financing approval or regulatory clearance. Financial consultation is our own advice; providers make their own eligibility and approval decisions. Products with specialised safety, medical, food or electrical requirements may need a different scope.
