Saudara AI

Saudara AI is an AI sourcing broker connecting American brands with vetted overseas factories. US brands import $3T in goods a year and lose billions to ghost suppliers, hidden fees, and blown deadlines. The factories that actually deliver sit behind decades-old relationships outsiders can't break into. We were born into them. Every deal runs through a real human broker, supercharged by AI that handles sourcing, quoting, QC, logistics and vendor financing. 10x faster, at a fraction of the cost.

No Logo

match 46

No Logo is building the orchestration layer for creating viral consumer products. The manufacturing world is full of capable, underutilized overseas factories with the machines, tooling, and engineers to build winning products – but no way to connect them to the creators and brands with the ideas and distribution. As a result, bringing a new product to market has traditionally taken 6-12 months, tens of thousands of dollars, and a team of 20-30 people. No Logo collapses that. Using generative AI
