About MadeInChina

MadeInChina is a premium, ad-free information tool for international importers. Describe a product — or drop in a photo — and our AI estimates what it actually costs to manufacture in China, the way a sourcing analyst would.

Each audit returns a materials breakdown, an estimated raw (bill-of-materials) factory-gate cost range, a typical retail comparison, the main Chinese production hubs, a standard export MOQ, and a typical production lead time.

How it works

  1. You type a product description or drag in a product photo.
  2. A large language model with vision analyzes the item and estimates its manufacturing cost and key sourcing data.
  3. The result streams back in seconds — clean, structured, and built for a quick trade audit.

An important note on accuracy

The figures here are AI-generated estimates, not verified factory quotes. Real prices depend on order quantity, specifications, materials grade, and supplier negotiations. Use these numbers as a starting point, not a contract.
