Real reviews in. Wasted samples out.
Runsheet connects brands with verified domestic factories — with honest reviews, warm introductions, and production briefs that bring factories to you.
Find your factory in four steps.
No cold emails, no guesswork, no trade-show hustle. Just verified manufacturers, honest reviews, and direct connections.
Search the directory
Browse verified domestic manufacturers and filter by specialty, MOQ, price range, location, availability, and certifications. Every factory is either verified by Runsheet or clearly marked unclaimed — you always know what you're looking at.
Free · No account neededRead reviews from real founders
Every review comes from a verified brand founder, technical designer, or production manager who actually worked with the factory — rated across sourcing, sampling, production, and the working relationship. Reviews can't be bought, buried, or removed for money — ever.
Verified before publishingPost a brief — or request an intro
Post a production brief for free and let interested factories bid on your project. Or move faster: request a warm introduction to a specific factory, and we deliver your full project brief straight to their decision-maker.
Briefs always free · Unlimited intros with Pro-Studio (14-day free trial · $99/mo founding rate, $199 list)Connect and produce
Review the factories that respond, accept the best fit, and get to work. After your run wraps, leave an honest review — it takes 3 minutes and helps the next founder skip the mistakes you didn't have to make.
Your review powers the communityThen run the season in the same place.
Finding the factory is half of it. The other half is everything between the sketch and the shelf — and that lives in your Runsheet dashboard, one record per style.
Draft the tech pack, grade the spec
One photo in, a factory-ready pack out in a few minutes — technical flats, renders, bill of materials, construction notes and a measurement spec. Save your size ranges once, set a grade rule per point of measure, and publish a graded spec that goes into the pack and the Excel export.
Tech pack drafts included every monthShare it with the factory — and get quotes back
Invite a factory from the style and it gets its own free login, in English or Spanish, with as many of its people as it needs: the styles you shared, the tech pack and every revision, the graded spec and the size runs. It quotes you there — flat, per size or per colour, with MOQ, lead time and a validity date. Compare the quotes side by side and accept one.
Free for factories, alwaysRun sampling without the email thread
Fit rounds, markups and approvals in one place. The factory moves each sample's status itself — in work, shipped, received — with carrier, tracking and ETA, and both sides get told. Your line shows up as a table you can bulk-edit and as a timeline you can drag when the fabric slips.
Late dates flagged before they biteKnow the margin, and the paperwork
Landed cost with freight, duty and tariff on top of the quoted price, cost versions you can compare season to season, and margins by style and by collection. Care and content labels with proper symbols, the children's product certificate for kids' styles, and a supply-chain map that produces a shareable Made-in-USA card for your line sheet.
Costs stay yours — factories never see themTwo sides. One marketplace.
