How it works, step by step

  1. 1. Create your account

    Sign up with your email. Confirm the link we send, then answer a few questions about your company. About 10 minutes.

  2. 2. Say what you need or offer

    Tell ABSB what you buy or sell. It stays private until you choose to share it.

  3. 3. Get matched and introduced

    ABSB suggests companies that fit and shows why. Nothing is shared until both sides accept an introduction.

  4. 4. Request and compare quotes

    Send one request to several suppliers. Quotes line up side by side in the same currency and units, with full landed cost.

  5. 5. Run the deal to completion

    Track sample, agreement, production, inspection, shipping and completion. Both sides confirm each step.

  6. 6. Grow from real results

    Completed deals build your Trust record, let you reorder quickly and show where to sell next.

Five places, once you sign in

Everything lives in five sections, so you always know where to look.

Today

Your one best next move, and anything waiting on you.

Network

Needs, offers, matches and introductions.

Deals

Requests for quote, quote comparison and every deal step.

Intelligence

Country facts, opportunity radar and distributor finder.

Our promises to you

  • Private by default

    Your email, phone, prices and deal details are never shown publicly.

  • Honest numbers

    No invented companies, matches or activity. Scores always show how they were worked out.

  • Exact calculations

    Landed cost and quote comparisons use fixed rules. AI never changes the numbers.

  • You stay in control

    ABSB never sends messages, signs agreements or moves money for you.
