| Know before using | The company count is a changing platform claim. Search fields, profiles, certificates, locations, and account access do not independently verify the legal entity, factory ownership, capability, capacity, certificate validity or scope, compliance performance, delivery, or project fit. Confirm the site and subcontracting, credentials with issuers, samples, audits when appropriate, specifications, contracts, and commercial terms. | SwatchOn's supplier status, counts, and trust language describe its own marketplace and can change. They do not independently establish fibre identity, performance, certification validity, mill ownership, production capacity, colour continuity, delivery, duty, or commercial fit. Review samples, test data, current certificates, the contracting entity, order terms, and landed logistics before purchase. | The brief does not approve a base pattern, size system, grade rule, pattern, file, provider, contract, classification, fee, fit, sample plan, production use, or intellectual-property position, and it does not replace qualified pattern, fit, CAD, employment, tax, privacy, and legal review. |

| What the source establishes | FOURSOURCE's current public network page presents an operator-reported global company count and country or territory search. It says logged-in users can narrow results by compliance certificates, product groups, fabric types, target groups, minimum order quantities, and other fields, with a free-trial and supplier sign-up route. | SwatchOn's current marketplace page exposes fabrics, trims, and prints, with swatch samples, in-stock catalogue colours, low-order-quantity options, and global logistics support. The page publishes operator-supplied marketplace and supplier counts and labels participating suppliers as verified partners. | The source-reviewed brief cites current U.S. Department of Labor task and title evidence, ISO documented-information, size-designation, body-table, and garment-measurement sources, first-party CAD exchange guidance, and one professional discovery route; it requires controlled inputs, explicit authority, receiver-tested files, sewn evidence, and acceptance records. |
