A just‑in‑time matching engine for the region’s salvaged, reclaimed, refurbished, surplus, and forthcoming‑deconstruction materials. Search what you need, see near‑fits you can modify, and compare each material’s benefit across the nine planetary boundaries of Kate Raworth’s Doughnut Model. Never a dead end.
From the Viridian Partners Rolodex & CE Source Intelligence Log. Harvesters and forthcoming‑deconstruction tips feed the engine upstream; retail partners are the fast backstop. Call these before buying new.
What you see today is the interactive prototype, running on illustrative seed data. The cards below map each capability to how it becomes real — the "live data" build that turns this from a demo into Studio Viridian's sourcing backbone.
Right now the source network points outward. The live system pulls partner inventories into one searchable, deduplicated catalogue — with photos — and keeps it current:
Sam's idea, exactly: a project bill of materials in a Google Sheet whose columns map 1:1 to these fields. Connect it and an AI agent runs a standing search + alert for every line, live‑updating the options it brings you to pick from.
The frontier, per Sam: bring in JIT data straight off active jobsites. A staffer (then a trained AI agent) scans materials and auto‑tags them to our fields — turning a site into a marketplace with no middleman.
Each match is compared against its virgin‑material alternative across a nine‑petal planetary‑boundary rose, not carbon alone, and, once sellers supply pricing, on delivered cost and avoided tipping fees. Environmental figures are illustrative estimates today; the live build replaces them with published data (EC3, environmental product declarations).
