Your Data. Your Business.
Connect was built by people who trade, so we know what's sensitive and what's worth sharing.
Built for how trade works
Prices, counterparties and volumes are your competitive edge. Only the parties to each trade see them, and your network is never published or pooled.
Protected by design
Everything you capture lives in your own Partner Data Vault (PDV): encrypted, access-controlled, with identity data held apart from trade data.
Enter once. Share on your terms.
Our shared infrastructure ends duplicate data entry. Share verified data with any buyer, certifier or partner you choose, free or paid via Sourcery Exchange, and revoke access at any time.
Transform Pro members can run their own single-tenant data instance.

Where Trade Meet Impact.
Connect helps you stay ahead in fast-moving commodity trade—combining real-time communications, execution, trusted counterparties, logistics, and impact measurement.
Verified Places.
Trust and impact start at origin. Verify your land, crops and facilities once, and every trade carries proof of where it came from.
Once created, each Place receives its own unique digital identity, and all Place data is stored privately and securely in your Partner Data Vault (PDV).
Verified Places
Place Protection.
A secure geo-fence around every verified site. When the Place administrator turns it on, data linked to that Place can only be captured and viewed by people standing inside its boundary.
Real-Time Traceability.
Trace every trade as it happens, with no admin, data entry or delays after the deal.
How it works
Visibility to the invisible.
Most of a brand's supply chain trades out of sight. The spinner never meets the brand, and the brand may not know which producer grew the fibre.
On Connect, every partner simply trades with the partner next to them. Each trade is captured as it happens and linked to the one before it, so the chain assembles itself, tier by tier, without anyone chasing paperwork.
Real-Time Traceability
Trade Once. Share Effortlessly.
One verified transaction, shared with the systems your partners already use. Share your Transaction Verification with traceability platforms, ERPs and regulators without re-entering a thing: no duplicate data entry, no post-trade admin.
Connect can integrate with any ERP, traceability platform or government system. Your data always stays under your control, and you can share it through Sourcery Exchange with anyone you choose, free or for a fee. Systems shown are examples, not endorsements; integrations are set up with you on request. Talk to us
Capture Primary Data.
Commercial, social and environmental data from the source: meaningful, measurable and fair, all in one place.
Intelligent Impact is coming with Connect 2.0.
Intelligent Impact
Your Impact Stack.
Every Place, trade and impact credential is stored and partitioned in your Partner Data Vault (PDV), building an Impact Stack you own, control by location and can monetise.
When you receive an order, enquiry or commitment, your buyer can request any Intelligent Impact module, and you attach it to the transaction in a tap.
Intelligent Impact is coming with Connect 2.0.
Intelligent Impact
Report Once. Share Everywhere.
Capture primary impact data once, and share it as a verified credential. Send it to the standards, certification bodies and LCA providers that need it, with no more filling in the same survey twice.
Connect works with any standard, certification body or LCA provider. Your impact data always stays under your control, and you decide who receives it, free or for a fee. Organisations shown are examples, not endorsements; connections are set up with you on request. Talk to us
