๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Demo Walkthrough

MarketForge Digital Twin โ€” Guided Tour

See the same market from three different angles. Enter as a machine shop, back out and re-enter as a buyer, then try the inspector โ€” and watch how the same matching pipeline looks from each side.

โœ… Working Proof of Concept

This is a live demonstration of the headless marketplace engine in action. The Cosolvent engine generated every match score, deal term, and participant profile you see here. The matching data is pre-generated (no live LLM calls), but every screen displays real engine output โ€” the same data a production system would produce.

The key insight: this entire frontend was built independently of the engine. A sponsor deploying MarketForge in their vertical would build their own UI โ€” branded, customized, domain-specific โ€” on top of the same engine API. That's what "headless" means in practice.

What This Demo Proves

Each screen in the demo illustrates a specific capability of the engine architecture. Here's what to look for:

Multi-perspective views

The same engine data supports different user experiences โ€” supply, demand, and verification sides see the same market differently.

KnowledgeSlot enhancement

Domain knowledge measurably improves match quality โ€” toggle the +18 KnowledgeSlot boost on the match report to see the difference.

Identity escrow

Trust mechanics work before parties know who they're dealing with โ€” identities stay hidden behind callsigns until both sides opt in.

Structured deal assembly

The engine assembles a complete transaction โ€” scope, pricing, facilitators, documents โ€” not just a contact introduction.

How to Explore

The demo is built for multi-perspective exploration. Three pre-loaded personas โ€” a machine shop, a buyer, and an inspector โ€” let you see the same market from every angle. Start as one, walk through the pipeline, then switch personas using the panel in the bottom-left sidebar to experience how the other side sees the same matches, scores, and deal terms.

The screenshots below follow Joana Mendes (machine shop, supply side), but every screen has a counterpart view from Lena Park (buyer) and Dmitri Volkov (inspector). We recommend going through at least two personas to appreciate how bidirectional matching works.

ยง 01 ยท Landing

The Front Door

The landing page introduces MarketForge's value proposition: "Find the counterparty before you ever introduce yourself." It previews the live matching pulse animation and summarizes the three-sided market structure (shops, buyers, inspectors) and the four-engine pipeline.

Matching Pulse

The animated diagram in the top-right shows supply callsigns (MS-xxxx) being matched to demand callsigns (BU-xxxx) in real time โ€” identities hidden behind codes.

Three Sides

Machine Shops (supply), Buyers (demand), and Inspectors (verification) โ€” every match requires satisfaction on all three sides.

Pipeline Stack

ClientSynth โ†’ KnowledgeSlot โ†’ Cosolvent โ†’ MarketForge. Four engines, each performing a distinct function in the matching pipeline.

ยง 02 ยท Seat Picker

Choose Your Persona

After clicking "Try live demo," you choose which persona to enter the market as. Each persona sees a different slice of the same simulation โ€” their own profile, their own matches, and their own pipeline. Try all three. The real insight comes from seeing how the same match looks from the supply side, the demand side, and the verification side.

Seat picker showing three demo personas: Machine Shop (Joana Mendes), Buyer (Lena Park), and Inspector (Dmitri Volkov)

Joana Mendes ยท Machine Shop

Ops lead at Ardent Precision Works, Grand Rapids MI. Supply side โ€” she has capacity, certifications, and equipment. Start here to see how a shop gets matched to a buyer.

Lena Park ยท Buyer

Procurement at Helios Aerospace. Demand side โ€” she has RFQs, tolerance specs, and delivery windows. Switch to her to see how the same match looks from the buyer's perspective.

Dmitri Volkov ยท Inspector

Meridian Metrology Services. Verification side โ€” his lab gets surfaced on matches where scope and turnaround fit. The third angle on every deal.

๐Ÿ’ก Switching Personas

You don't need to log out and start over. Use the Switch Persona panel in the bottom-left sidebar โ€” visible on every screen โ€” to jump between roles instantly. The market stays the same; your vantage point changes.

ยง 03 ยท Overview

Market-Wide Dashboard

The Overview shows the entire simulated market โ€” 12,478 participants, 1,204 active matches, 312 assembled deals. The matching pulse visualizes supply-demand connections in real time. The green "Continue" card signals you have a new mutual match waiting.

Market overview showing KPIs (participants, active matches, deals assembled, avg time-to-match, rejection floor), matching pulse animation, and pipeline stack versions

KPI Bar

Participants (12,478), Active Matches (1,204), Pending Reveals (86), Deals Assembled (312), Avg Time-to-Match (4.2h), Rejection Floor (41/100).

Matching Pulse

Supply callsigns (left) connect to demand callsigns (right) via dotted lines. Orange-highlighted rows indicate active matches. The pulse updates every frame.

Continue Card

"You have 1 new mutual match with confidence 83/100." Click "Step into your role" to proceed through the pipeline as your selected persona.

Sidebar Navigation

Seven numbered steps (01โ€“07) in the left sidebar. Steps are grouped: Twin (overview, role, profile, dashboard) and Matching (match report, identity reveal, deal brief).

ยง 04 ยท Role Selection

Pick Your Side of the Market

In a live deployment, this is where a new participant declares which side of the market they're entering. The demo pre-selects Machine Shop (supply side) for the Joana Mendes persona. Each card shows population, capacity stats, and a brief description of the role.

Role selection screen with three cards: Machine Shop (supply, selected), Buyer (demand), Inspector (verification)

Machine Shop (Supply)

1,248 shops, 41% avg capacity, 312 active matches. "You hold capacity, tooling and certifications."

Buyer (Demand)

867 buyers, 2,140 open RFQs, 4.2h avg time-to-match. "You need qualified suppliers who clear AS9100, ITAR."

Inspector (Verification)

312 labs, 89 active pairs, 100% accredited. Third-party verification surfaced on matches where scope fits.

ยง 05 ยท Profile

Your Digital Twin

This is Ardent Precision Works' confidential twin โ€” capabilities, equipment, certifications, constraints, and commercial terms. In a live system, this data feeds the Cosolvent matching engine. The capacity gauge (62% committed) and KnowledgeSlot status show the twin is actively maintained.

Profile page for Ardent Precision Works showing capabilities, certifications, capacity gauge, KnowledgeSlot status, and commercial constraints

Capabilities Panel

Processes (5-axis milling, turning, wire EDM), materials (Inconel 718, Ti-6Al-4V, etc.), work envelope, and tolerance (ยฑ0.0005"). These are the signals Cosolvent matches against.

Capacity ยท Next 90D

62% committed, 84% with pipeline. Marked CONFIDENTIAL โ€” this data never leaves the twin unless a mutual match triggers identity reveal.

KnowledgeSlot

ON, 2 prompts in flight. The AI-curated reference library that grounds matching in domain ontology โ€” certifications, material specs, tolerances.

Constraints & Commercial

Min batch: 4 units. Max batch: 500. Preferred engagement: recurring โ‰ฅ 6 months. These are hard constraints โ€” a match must satisfy all of them.

ยง 06 ยท Dashboard

Your Match Pipeline

The dashboard shows your active match pipeline โ€” scored, ranked, and identity-gated. Each row is a potential counterparty identified only by match ID. The top match (94/100, HIGH confidence) has progressed to OPEN status, meaning both sides have been notified.

Dashboard showing pipeline with three matches at HIGH (94/100), MEDIUM (70/100), and LOW (58/100) confidence

Pipeline KPIs

Capacity Booked (62%), Active Matches (14, bidirectional), Top Confidence (94/100, KS ON), Pending Reveal (1, identity gated).

Match Rows

Each row shows: match ID, buyer type, description, confidence tier (HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW), score bar, and status (OPEN/QUEUED). Buyer identities remain hidden.

Bidirectional Scoring

Scores are mutual โ€” both sides must score above the rejection floor (41/100) for a match to surface. This prevents one-sided "spam" matches.

ยง 07 ยท Match Report

The Evidence

The match report is the heart of MarketForge. It shows a parameter-by-parameter comparison between your capabilities and the buyer's requirements โ€” process, tolerance, material, envelope, certifications, location, capacity, and surface finish. Each parameter is scored independently with a fit verdict (MATCH, EXCEEDS, PARTIAL).

Capability Comparison

Your Side vs. Their Side for each parameter. Green MATCH/EXCEEDS badges indicate compatibility. Orange PARTIAL flags gaps worth reviewing.

Mutual Confidence ยท 94/100

The composite score with KnowledgeSlot enhancement (+18). Toggle enhancement off to see the base Cosolvent score (76). The donut chart makes the score instantly readable.

Signal Breakdown

Process fit (20/20), Material fit (15/15), Tolerance headroom (15/15), Certifications (15/15), Capacity fit (8/10), Finish capability (13/15), Inspection readiness (8/10).

Confidentiality Preserved

Notice: the counterparty is identified only as "BU-โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆ ยท Buyer." No company name, no contact info. Identity stays locked until both sides opt in.

ยง 08 ยท Identity Reveal

The Consent Gate

This is MarketForge's most distinctive feature. Neither party's identity is revealed until both opt in. The screen shows two dark cards โ€” your callsign (MS-0417) and theirs (BU-โ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆโ–ˆ) โ€” separated by a padlock. Three explainer cards below describe the escrow, ledger, and withdrawal mechanics.

Identity Escrow

Names, logos, and locations are held server-side, encrypted at rest, and released only on mutual consent.

Reveal Ledger

Every opt-in is signed and timestamped. Either party can revoke before deal assembly begins.

Withdrawal

Either side may un-reveal within 24h if no deal has been countersigned. All derived artifacts are purged.

ยง 09 ยท Deal Brief

The Assembled Deal

Once both parties reveal, MarketForge assembles a complete deal brief โ€” scope, pricing, timeline, facilitators (inspection lab, logistics), milestone schedule, escrow terms, and supporting documents. This is a structured, auditable commercial document โ€” not a chat thread.

Scope

12ร— Inconel 718 structural brackets, 5-axis milled, AS9102 FAI on first article. Precisely defined โ€” no ambiguity.

Pricing & Escrow

$1,840/ea, $22,080 total, Net 30 terms. Escrow held by Brex (acct ยทยทยทยท4182). Payment milestones: 20% on FAI acceptance, 30% on 50% delivery, 50% on final.

Facilitators

Architecture Note

This Is a Headless System

Every screen you've just seen was built on top of the Cosolvent engine โ€” not inside it. The engine provides matching scores, deal terms, identity escrow, and document assembly via API. This frontend is just one possible presentation layer.

A timber association deploying MarketForge for specialty lumber would build a completely different UI โ€” different branding, different fields, different workflow โ€” but powered by the same engine underneath. A government trade agency sponsoring a cross-border exchange would brand it as their own. A procurement network would embed matching into their existing portal.

That's what "headless" means in practice: the engine does the work; the sponsor owns the experience.
