Got fed up sourcing hardware part by part, built this so you can source entire assemblies in one shot. Free if anyone wants to try.

I ran hardware production programmes for years and the sourcing always drove me up the wall. Huge spreadsheets tracking parts & suppliers, RFI/RFQs for each one, then weeks chasing suppliers. And the shops that made the prototypes usually couldn't do the volumes, so half of it got re-sourced anyway. I built Open Foundry to automate about 70% of the procurement admin and roll sourcing up to the assembly level. I'm running free pilots if anyone wants to try it. Just join the l

AI 分析

痛点:硬件从样机走向量产时,采购要逐个零件维护 Excel 供应商表、逐个发 RFI/RFQ 并花数周追供应商,而且样机厂往往无法承接量产导致重新寻源。

目标用户:硬件初创公司与中小硬件团队的采购/供应链负责人、硬件项目经理(处于小批量到量产过渡阶段)

证据:Huge spreadsheets tracking parts & suppliers, RFI/RFQs for each one, then weeks chasing suppliers. And the shops that made the prototypes usually couldn't do the volumes, so half of it got re-sourced anyway. / I built Open Foundry to automate about 70% of the procurement admin / I'm running free pilots if anyone wants to try it.

变现:按项目或席位订阅的 B2B SaaS(BOM 分析 + RFQ 自动化 + 供应商库),叠加按 RFQ 数量计费或寻源成功后的撮合佣金;后续可做付费供应商推广位。

MVP:两周内做「BOM 上传 → 自动解析分类 → 一键批量生成 RFQ 邮件/表单 → 供应商报价对比看板」,先只支持 2-3 个常见品类和邮件发送,不做供应商网络,靠人工代发兜底。

竞品:Supplyframe / Findchips、Partium、Bommer / 各类 BOM 管理工具、传统 EMS 与独立采购代理

摘要:发帖人做了多年硬件量产项目,吐槽采购环节靠巨大的 Excel 表格逐个零件维护供应商、逐个发 RFI/RFQ 并花数周追供应商,样机厂产能不够还要重新寻源。他因此做了 Open Foundry,声称可自动化约 70% 的采购行政工作并把寻源提升到整机组装层级,目前只提供免费试点(waitlist 报名),没有任何付费或收入数据。痛点真实且属 B2B 有预算场景,但需求验证仅停留在自述层面,且供应商网络是双边难点。
