One run, start to finish

Every dassi job has the same shape: an input, work done on real pages and accounts, output you can verify, and exceptions flagged — never guessed. This one is an illustrative example of the job.

  1. 09:14 alibaba.com searched your spec, opened 14 supplier pages, pulled MOQ, unit price, lead time, and ratings
  2. 09:21 made-in-china.com found 6 more suppliers carrying the same spec
  3. 09:26 xe.com converted the EUR and CNY quotes to USD, noting the rate and the date
  4. 09:28 sheets.google.com wrote 20 rows into your sourcing sheet: supplier, MOQ, unit price, lead time, source link
  5. 09:33 gmail.com drafted the customer quotation from your template — a 3-option shortlist with your margin applied
output
  • verified: 20 suppliers compared in your sheet — every number linked to the page it came from
  • verified: Quotation drafted in Gmail, priced by your margin rule — held for your approval
exceptions
  • flagged: 2 suppliers listed no MOQ — rows flagged, not filled in with a guess
  • flagged: 1 supplier's stated lead time contradicted its own listing — both numbers captured, marked for your judgment

The next RFQ arrives → the same run starts. Your spec format, your margin rule, your template — already taught.

What you can hand off

Marketplace sourcing runs

Alibaba, Made-in-China, IndiaMART, ThomasNet, or the niche directories of your industry — dassi works whichever sites you'd open, in your logged-in session.

The comparison sheet, kept honest

MOQ, unit price, lead time, shipping terms — normalized into your columns, with a source link on every row so you can verify any number in one click.

Quote requests in your name, with your approval

dassi fills supplier inquiry forms and drafts messages for the shortlist. Nothing is sent until you say so.

Currency and unit normalization

EUR, CNY, per-piece versus per-carton, metric versus imperial — converted consistently, with the rate and source noted.

The customer-facing quotation

Drafted from your own template with your margin applied, ready for you to adjust and send.

The tab marathon between RFQ and quote

A serious quote is a research project. Fifteen supplier tabs across three marketplaces, two currencies, MOQs buried in product descriptions, lead times that contradict the listing one page over. Then the copy-paste into a sheet, then the math, then the email. Half a day is gone by the time the quote goes out, and the next RFQ starts the clock again at zero.

The work is repetitive, but it isn’t mindless. It takes your judgment about which suppliers are credible, which numbers are real, and how much margin the deal can carry. That judgment is the reason the job never got handed off. Until now, handing off the work meant handing off the judgment with it.

Your procedure, run by a teammate

dassi splits the job along that line. It runs your procedure, meaning the sites you’d search, the columns you keep, the template you quote from. The judgment calls stay with you, with the evidence lined up in advance. Every number in the comparison sheet links back to the page it came from. Gaps get flagged instead of filled in. The quotation shows up as a draft, priced by your rules, waiting for your eye before anything sends.

And because dassi works in your browser on your machine, it sees the marketplaces the way you see them when you’re signed in: supplier chat history, trade-assurance status, negotiated prices that only show on your account. A cloud tool browsing from a datacenter gets the logged-out version of the internet.

From one run to a standing capability

The first RFQ takes a walkthrough. Every one after that is a forward. Paste the spec, get back the sheet and the draft, and send the quote while your competitors are still opening supplier tabs.

Teach it once

01

Walk it through one RFQ

Do one sourcing run while dassi watches — which sites you trust, which columns you keep, what disqualifies a supplier. That becomes the Skill.

02

Give it your rules

Your margin, your incoterms, your minimum supplier rating, your quote template. Rules live in plain English, and you can edit them anytime.

03

Hand it the next RFQ

Forward the email or paste the spec. dassi runs the whole job and comes back with the sheet and the draft.

Your accounts. Your machine. Your call.

Runs on your machine

The agent works in your browser on your computer, local by design. It never runs in our cloud.

Your logins stay yours

It works in the sessions you're already signed into. No password handoff, no credential vault.

You approve what leaves

Messages, submissions, payments — anything outbound waits for the approvals you set.

Your model, your choice

Claude, GPT or Gemini with your own key or included credits, or a fully local model. On your own key, prompts go straight to your provider; included credits pass through dassi's relay.

Frequently asked questions

Which marketplaces and directories can it search?

Any site you can open in your browser — including ones that need your login. Alibaba, Made-in-China, IndiaMART, ThomasNet, Faire, or the specialist directories of your niche. There's no supported-sites list, because it works on pages, not APIs.

Does it contact suppliers as me?

It drafts in your name and holds everything for your approval. You review each inquiry before it goes out — and once you trust a step, you can let routine ones send on their own.

How do I know the numbers in the sheet are right?

Every row carries a link to the page the numbers came from, so verification is one click. Where a listing is missing or contradicts itself, dassi flags the gap instead of filling it in — a blank cell with a note beats a confident wrong answer.

Can it handle my pricing and margin rules?

Yes. You state them in plain English — target margin, floor price, preferred terms — and dassi applies them when drafting the quote. Anything that lands below your floor is held for you rather than sent.

My sourcing process is particular. Will it fit?

That's the point. dassi doesn't come with a generic sourcing process — it learns yours: your trusted sites, your disqualifiers, your sheet, your template. If you refine the process later, edit the Skill in plain English.
