Wayo is an AI-powered custom sourcing and merch platform that helps companies create high-quality branded products at factory-direct prices. Teams can order from a vetted catalog or start fully custom builds with guidance from an AI sourcing agent, then manage quotes, orders, and invoices in one dashboard.
• Catalog products — self-serve selection with real-time previews and instant pricing, suitable for fast campaigns and smaller MOQs.
• Fully custom products — scope any part of the product (materials, finishes, packaging) with Nory, our AI sourcing agent, and a dedicated project manager.
• All-in-one dashboard — centralizes timelines, approvals, messaging, invoices, and reorders.
• Upload artwork, choose methods, and see photorealistic mockups update in real time.
• Automatic quotes adjust as you customize; clear summaries before checkout.
• Typical global delivery in 2–4 weeks depending on shipping method.
• Collects specs via a conversational flow to reduce back-and-forth.
• Recommends materials, decoration methods, and packaging by goal and budget.
• Matches projects with vetted global factories; quotes typically within 24–48 hours.
• Factory-direct pricing (save ~30–50% vs. traditional vendors).
• Access to top global factories with built-in quality control.
• Low minimums on many catalog items (often 20–100 units); advanced methods beyond basic prints (e.g., puff print, 3D embroidery, heat stamp, laser).
