Guided Chrome helper pilot
Save active product pages into one multi-item sourcing project.
The Manifest V3 MVP is delivered directly for guided pilot use. It is not a public download and is not in the Chrome Web Store.
Desktop Chrome is required for the helper.Chrome extensions cannot be installed or used on standard mobile Chrome. Phone and tablet users can submit one product through the mobile-friendly website form.Open the website form
The helper organizes your product brief.Sourcing support starts from US$1,000. Saving a page does not confirm a supplier, price, stock or sourcing engagement.
When the helper is useful
Use it when you are comparing several product pages and want one editable project instead of a collection of loose links or screenshots.
- Save the current URL, title and main image after your click
- Add specifications, quantity, target price and notes
- Group and edit up to 50 products before submission
- Add a blank manual product whenever page parsing fails
Manual entry is the reliable fallback. Marketplace layouts change and may block page parsing. Review every field before saving; correct the result or add a blank product when needed.
