Manufacturing

Supplier shortlists now start with a chat.

A buyer in Germany and a distributor in the Gulf are both more likely to have AI draft the first list. To make it, your product range, capacity and certifications need to be written in the buyer's language, in figures they can measure and check.

01What people ask

What buyers and distributors ask AI

Answers to these questions name companies and often link to sources. Manufacturers whose technical data is locked in a PDF, or published only in Turkish, rarely show up when the buyer asks in another language.

  1. Finding suppliers

    "Which Turkish manufacturers produce stainless steel storage tanks for the dairy industry?"

  2. Distribution

    "Which Turkish hardware manufacturers are looking for distributors in the Middle East?"

  3. Certification

    "Which steel fabricators hold EN 1090 and ship structural steel to Europe?"

  4. Capacity

    "Can you recommend a supplier that can cast 50 tonnes of aluminium a month?"

  5. Checking a company

    "How many countries does [company name] export to, and where is its plant?"

02What we do

We turn the catalog into something a buyer can read

Multilingual product and technical data pages

Dimensions, materials, standards and capacity figures move out of the PDF and into tables on the page. In English first, then the languages of your export markets, with units as those markets use them.

Certification and compliance page

ISO, CE, EN and industry-specific certificates on one page, with certificate numbers and expiry dates. We track expiries and remind you to renew.

Distributor and dealer information

Who represents you in which country, what you expect from a new distributor, minimum order and typical lead times. Clear answers to the questions a prospective distributor asks.

Application and industry pages

Pages showing which industries use your products and for what. Customer names appear only with written approval.

Consistent company details

We check that your legal name, plant address, export markets and contact details match across your site, LinkedIn, B2B platforms and trade fair listings. Organization and Product markup makes this explicit for machines too.

Guide to structured data
03Common questions

Manufacturers ask

Our products are highly technical. Will AI understand them?

When they're written up properly, yes. Technical values in a table on the page, with units and standards, can be carried into AI answers. Data buried inside a PDF catalog is much harder to find.

Which languages do you measure in?

The languages of the markets you export to or want to enter. A buyer asking in German gets a different answer from someone asking the same thing in Turkish, so we measure each separately.

Do we have to publish prices?

No. Instead of prices we bring forward what buyers actually decide on: capacity, minimum order quantity, typical lead times and specifications.

We have several brands and plants. How do you handle that?

We start by mapping which brand, plant and product line belong together. When AI mixes up which product is made where and under which brand, the cause is usually that the site leaves this unclear.

Would a buyer asking AI find you?

Leave your website and target markets. We'll measure which companies come up in supplier questions in those markets and send you the results.
