For FMCG and CPG teams

Answers your auditor can follow

Quality, regulatory and procurement teams get sourced FMCG answers inside the AI assistant they already use. Every answer names the rule or the official list it came from, states what it did not check, and leaves the compliance call to you.

The same question, two worlds

Without the network

  • Generic chatbot guesses, with no sources and no quality label
  • Trade-fair contacts and a spreadsheet from 2023
  • Regulatory check happens after the artwork is designed
  • Nobody can tell you how confident the answer is

With fmcg.network

  • Answers name the official source behind them
  • Suppliers across DACH, PL and NL, growing continuously
  • Novel food pre-flight before budget is committed
  • Confidence reported per answer, and what it did not check stated openly

Written down by people, before you ever ask

A general AI assistant improvises an answer the moment you ask. Every check here was written before you arrived: the data it uses, the rules it follows, the sources it cites and the things it deliberately does not cover. You can read all of it, and you can see who wrote it.

You can see who wrote it

Every check carries one named author, and that name travels with the answer. Today every check on the network is written by the fmcg.network team. As outside authors join, their name appears instead of ours, on every answer they give.

You can read the method

The data it uses, the rules it applies, the sources it cites and the limits it admits to are all published before you rely on any of it. Not a summary of the method. The method.

It is not allowed to give you the verdict

A check reports what an official source says. It never tells you a product is compliant, approved or safe, because that call is not ours to make. An automated check blocks any new capability that tries.

Fair questions

Do we have to change how we work?
No. fmcg.network appears inside the assistant your team already uses. There is no dashboard, no second login and no new interface to train anyone on.
How do we know the answer is right?
Every answer names the source it came from, so the check you do is the one you would do anyway: open the document and read it. Supplier records are machine-collected today and labelled that way on every result. Where a check is not sure, it flags the result for a human instead of presenting it confidently.
Who actually writes these checks?
Today, we do. Every check on the network is written by the fmcg.network team, and every one names its author, its data sources and what it does not cover, so you can judge the work rather than trust the badge. The network is built so that outside experts publish under their own name, and when they do, their name appears on their answers instead of ours. We will not describe an author as verified or certified, because we do not check professional credentials.
What happens to our data?
We do not keep the questions you ask or the answers you get. A test in our build sends distinctive ingredient names through a check and fails if any of them appear anywhere in our logs. We record which check ran, whether it worked, how long it took, your account, your country and your organisation. We do not record your IP address or your city. No third-party trackers, and no analytics cookies unless you accept them.
What if a capability does not know?
It says so. Unknown ingredients go to a review queue and lower the reported confidence. An honest "unknown" is the product working, not failing.
