bixsourcing: a team of agents that source, score and settle B2B deals

Most B2B sourcing tools stop at the RFQ. bixsourcing runs the whole loop — matching, negotiation, logistics and finance — as seven specialist agents behind one dual-role marketplace.

bixsourcing: a team of agents that source, score and settle B2B deals

The problem: sourcing stalls after the RFQ

B2B sourcing platforms are good at one thing — getting a request for quote in front of suppliers. What happens after (matching the right supplier, negotiating terms, tracking the shipment, releasing payment on milestone) is usually still email, spreadsheets and phone calls. That gap is where deals stall and where trust between buyer and seller breaks down.

bixsourcing is BIXSO’s flagship product — the branded-house flagship (Heritage Teal #00A6A6) — built to close that gap end to end.

What it actually does

bixsourcing is a dual-role marketplace: the same account can act as Buyer (sapphire) or Seller (emerald), auto-filtered by role, across seven subsystems — Matching → Sourcing → Contact → Negotiate → Monitor → Finance → Business.

Behind that UI sit seven specialist agents, a Supervisor–Worker pattern rather than one do-everything bot:

  • Matching agent — scores buyer–supplier compatibility in real time on industry, region, reputation and price.
  • Sourcing agent — normalises RFQs, auto-categorises catalogues, forecasts prices and suggests qualified suppliers.
  • Client agent — scores supplier creditworthiness and flags transaction risk.
  • Deal agent — drafts contracts, analyses terms and recommends a negotiation price.
  • Logistics agent — tracks shipments, detects delays and proposes alternative routes.
  • Finance agent — triggers smart-escrow release on milestones and flags cash-flow anomalies.
  • Strategy agent — runs SWOT on each side and surfaces cross-sell opportunities.

The architecture, honestly

The AI runs through the BIXSO Brain Gateway (Gemini 2.5, HMAC + OIDC), not a direct model call — every request is metered in BIXSO’s Energy economy (1⚡ = AUD $0.02) so cost is visible per action, not buried in a subscription. The backend is Node/Express on Cloud Run (asia-southeast1), Firestore-backed with an in-memory fallback for testing, covered by 71 automated backend tests. The frontend is deliberately framework-free — vanilla HTML/CSS/JS — a choice made for load speed and long-term maintainability, not a shortcut.

bixsourcing also runs a full affiliate engine (three-tier commission cascade, KYC-gated payouts) and an admin control-plane with real role-based access (super admin → admin → manager → support) — because a sourcing platform without governance over its own team isn’t ready for real trading volume.

Where it stands

bixsourcing’s backend is live on Cloud Run; the web app is live at bixsourcing.web.app. It’s the product we point to when we say BIXSO builds agent systems that ship, not diagrams. Full architecture writeup: bixso.ai/work/bixsourcing.
