What the product is solving
SourceFlow is designed to make China product sourcing easier for customers who do not want to manage language barriers, marketplace accounts, supplier communication, wallet top-ups, freight decisions, and status updates across separate tools.
The app brings discovery, checkout, shipping, notifications, and support into one flow. Behind it, the admin layer gives the team a way to manage users, orders, featured products, notifications, payments, and operational settings as the live product grows.
