The problem
Genuine expertise in specific product categories is enormously valuable to buyers and almost entirely unmonetised.
The experts answer the same questions in communities for free while affiliate content farms with no expertise rank above them and capture the commerce.
Buyers meanwhile cannot tell an expert recommendation from search-optimised filler.
Who this is for
People with genuine expertise in a narrow domain, gear, tools, books, software, ingredients, who currently give recommendations away in forums and communities for free. Also the audiences who trust them.
Find out whether your marketplace is actually liquid
Put in your active suppliers, monthly requests and fill rate. See how many more suppliers a working fill rate needs, and the sales lost to no match. Runs in your browser. No account, no card, no call.
Liquidity is fragile. It works on good days and fails on busy ones.
Fill rate
- Requests per supplier
- 12.5
- Matched per month

Method: fill rate is modelled as 1 − e^(−k·supply/demand), with k solved from your current numbers. Each additional supplier covers less incremental demand than the last, which is why fill rate saturates rather than scaling linearly.
