I’m building WiseLocals to solve the lack of transparency in international sourcing. Most businesses lose margins to opaque intermediaries or face high fraud risks when sourcing from major manufacturing hubs.

We’ve developed a platform that connects businesses directly with vetted local experts, moving away from the "middleman" model that often complicates the supply chain.

Key Technical/Process Focus: * Multi-tiered verification: A rigorous onboarding process to verify local agent identity and expertise. * Milestone-based payments: Funds are held and only released once both parties are satisfied with the service. * Performance Analytics: Using data-driven insights to track vendor reliability over time. * Direct Project Management: A dedicated interface for real-time communication and project tracking.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on how to further automate trust in cross-border B2B transactions!
