SUPPLIER OUTREACH
Request quotes, MOQs and lead times from every supplier at once
Every supplier in your evaluation is scored on the same criteria, so every one has the same gaps, and you ask all of them the same question.

How supplier outreach works
Pick who to ask
Ask one supplier or select several from your research. Each message is tailored to that supplier.
Review the draft
The fields still missing are pre-selected. Edit anything, including how much you say about what you are evaluating.
Send from your mailbox
The supplier receives a message from a person at your company, with your name and your signature, not from a tool.
Read the reply
It arrives in your inbox like any other email, and appears in your evaluation at the same time, attached to the supplier it came from.
Bring us a category where the suppliers publish nothing
Book a demo and we will run MercatIQ live on a sourcing decision your team has open now, including the requests to real suppliers. Or send us what you are evaluating and we will tell you whether it fits.
Questions we get before the first call
Does the email come from MercatIQ or from my company?
From your company. You connect the mailbox your team already uses, so the supplier sees your address and replies to you directly.
Is this a mass email tool?
No. The recipients are the suppliers already in your evaluation, the questions come from criteria you set, and a person approves every message before it leaves. There is no autonomous sending mode.
Will this affect our email domain reputation?
Sends are paced and stay inside the limits your mail provider already applies to your account. Volume follows the size of your evaluation, not an uploaded list.
What happens if a supplier does not reply?
Their score stays exactly as your research produced it, and the missing field stays visibly empty. You can switch on a reminder, which only fires while nobody has answered.
What happens on the demo?
We look at a sourcing decision your team is working on now. You see how MercatIQ researches the options, structures the criteria, and requests what is missing from real suppliers in your category. If it fits, we set up your workspace after the call.
