Supplier Scorecard Builder
Sourcing and suppliers
Turn scattered supplier quotes and email threads into defensible, weighted scorecards in minutes.
For FMCG and CPG teams
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.

Labelling and claims

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.
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.
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.
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.
