How Polyfinder works
Polyfinder does the slow part of prospecting — finding the right companies abroad and writing to each one properly — and leaves you the part that matters: the conversation and the deal.
011. You describe what you sell or need
Polymer, form, colour, contamination, quantity and location — the same details a professional buyer or seller would ask for. You choose the countries, or let the app suggest the markets for your material.
022. It searches the web for matching companies
Company websites, trade association member lists, recycling certification registers, trade fair exhibitor lists and public buy or sell requests on trade marketplaces. Searches run in each country's language.
033. It checks every company
It reads the company's own pages to confirm what it does, and keeps only contact details the company publishes. It never guesses an email address.
044. It drafts the first email in the recipient's language
Each email is written for that company, from your offer or your need, in the way you write. You read, correct and approve every message before it leaves.
055. You send from your own mailbox
Gmail or any mailbox with IMAP and SMTP. Replies arrive where you already work, and the conversation stays yours.
066. It keeps the follow-up
Replies are sorted (interested, needs information, not interested), answers are suggested, and follow-ups are prepared when a company has not replied.
07What Polyfinder does not do
- It does not invent companies, people, emails or figures.
- It does not send anything without your approval.
- It does not publish prices and is not a marketplace: you deal directly with the companies.
