How it works
Validate the idea
Run a product through the free idea checker or filter the research catalog by niche, season, and margin. No account needed to start.
Confirm a real supplier
Import from CJ Dropshipping, Printful, or Printify, or a direct supplier on the platform, and check the price clears fees before you list it.
Publish when you are ready
Publish researched products to a hosted store page or push them to Shopify. Save every product you quote so the shortlist stays in one place.
What you can do on day one
Product research
Filter a labeled sample catalog by niche and season, then save the products you are actually quoting. The public preview does not require an account.
Suppliers that can fulfill
Import from CJ Dropshipping, Printful, or Printify, or list a product from a direct supplier who joined the platform.
Hosted storefront
Product pages, a cart, and Stripe Checkout on a link this app serves. Publishing does not require another ecommerce account.
Optional Shopify
Push researched listings to Shopify when you want that channel. Free accounts get a monthly cap. Pro removes it.

Common questions
Is the product catalog live sales data?
No. The built-in discovery catalog is curated sample data. Prices, competition tags, and season windows are editorial. Search suggestions do not include verified order counts. Use a supplier quote before you buy ads.
Do I need a Shopify account?
No. Sign up, connect Stripe payouts, import a supplier product, and publish a storefront at /store/your-link. Shopify is an optional sales channel.
What does the free plan include?
Free accounts can save 10 products, keep 25 research-catalog products, publish 25 hosted listings, and save 3 launch workspaces. Pro removes the research, catalog, and listing limits and allows 50 saved launch workspaces. Pro is $29 per month, billed by Stripe. Supplier API import for the storefront uses the platform keys and is available to signed-in sellers.
