The argument

For decades, the companies that make the things you buy have been quietly transferring costs onto your balance sheet. Taking your money at the point of purchase, while making your life unnecessarily harder and more expensive.

The costs add up. The toll of social media on a generation of kids. Plastics in our oceans. Corruption and discrimination in our economy. The cost of climate change on everything you will ever buy.

None of this was on the receipt. All of it is on the bill.

Supplierism is the framework for what happens when ordinary buyers stop absorbing costs that suppliers created. It is not socialism. It is not regulation. It is not a boycott. It is the missing layer of capitalism: the one that gives average people the procurement-grade power that institutions have always had.

Your suppliers need your money to survive. Doesn't that mean you get to set the terms of the relationship? Now you can.


What we are building

A free app, on every phone.

Supplierism is building one tool. Free for anyone to download. Capable of doing three things that, until now, have been the exclusive privilege of large institutional buyers.

Write your terms.

Tell the app what you believe in. What you will and will not accept from a company you give money to. The app translates your values into terms and conditions that legal systems and capital markets can read.

Negotiate with your suppliers.

The app combines your demand with millions of other buyers who share your values. It reads supplier disclosures. It qualifies the companies that meet your terms. It disqualifies the ones that do not.

Audit and enforce.

When a supplier accepts your terms, the app monitors compliance. When a supplier fails, the app decides the proportional response. Disqualify, transition, monitor, or escalate.

One tool. Three jobs. Built for the buyer, not the seller.

The roadmap

How the app gets built.

In development
A buyer's terms-and-conditions generator. AI-written T&Cs that ordinary people can attach to their relationships with suppliers. Starting with their children's connected devices.
A supplier qualification engine. The framework for turning shared buyer values into supplier disclosure requirements.
Next
An aggregation layer. The mechanism by which individual buyers combine into procurement blocs.
An enforcement layer. The proportional-response system for suppliers who fail to meet terms.
Later
Vertical-specific tools for financial services, food, technology, and household goods.

This roadmap is public and will be updated as work progresses. Subscribers will be the first to use what gets built.
