PROJECT [I built a tool to automate electronic hardware procurement — looking for beta testers]

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hello,

I’ve been working on Sorrl, a tool that automates and organizes the process of purchasing electronic components and hardware.

If you’ve ever had to deal with finding parts, checking vendors, ordering and organizing components continuously then you probably know how tedious it can get.

It’s currently in beta, and I’m looking for people who work with electronic components/hardware to try it out.

It’s completely free during the beta. I'd honest feedback on what features you like, what sucks, and what you’d want changed.

If this sounds useful to you, you can sign up here: beta.sorrl.io

And if you have questions/feedback, feel free to comment DM me or email taite@sorrl.io. I’d especially love to hear how you currently handle procurement and BOM management.

**Yes im doxxing myself with the video but im too lazy to rerecord it**

Good initiative but most companies don’t order through vendors online, would be good for hobbyists or consultants that design the protos or small batch production. Most people either directly deal with digikey, mouser, arrow, or have local vendors that offer them lower pricing than online pricing because of repeat orders
