# Find Suppliers Source: https://docs.launchfastlegacyx.com/mcp/research/find-suppliers List the suppliers that Launch Fast found for a product phrase, a market, or an ASIN. See unit price, MOQ, rating, and country. | Field | Value | | ----------------- | --------------------------------------------- | | MCP tool | `find_suppliers` | | Behavior | Read-only | | Cost | Free and instant | | Permission | **Research and insights** (Launch Fast tools) | | Amazon connection | Not necessary | | App view | `ui://launchfast/v2/suppliers` | ## What It Does `find_suppliers` lists the suppliers that Launch Fast has for a product phrase, a market, or an ASIN. Each row shows the unit price in US dollars, the MOQ with its unit, the rating, the years in business, and the country. The list holds up to 50 suppliers. They have labels from `s1` to `s50`, in the chosen order. The default order is cheapest first. Each page shows 10 suppliers by default. Filters make the list shorter. For a product phrase, each row is a supplier listing, so one company can show more than once. ## When To Use It Use `find_suppliers` first for each sourcing question. If it finds nothing for a phrase, use [`research_suppliers`](https://docs.launchfastlegacyx.com/mcp/research/research-suppliers) to search for that phrase. ## Inputs Give one of `query`, `market`, or `asin`. | Input | Required | Values | Example | | --------------------- | ------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------- | | `query` | One of three | A product phrase, up to 200 characters | `silicone spatula` | | `market` | One of three | A market slug or name | `silicone-spatulas` | | `asin` | One of three | An ASIN or Amazon product link | `B0C1EXAMPL` | | `max_unit_price_usd` | No | Highest unit price in US dollars, above 0 | `2` | | `max_moq` | No | Highest minimum order quantity, a whole number from 1 | `500` | | `min_supplier_rating` | No | Lowest supplier rating, 0 to 5 | `4.5` | | `min_years` | No | Fewest years in business, a whole number from 0 | `3` | | `sort` | No | `unit_price` (default, cheapest first), `best_match`, `moq` (lowest first), `rating` (highest first), `years` (most first) | `rating` | | `limit` | No | Rows on each page, 1 to 50. The default is 10. | `25` | | `cursor` | No | The `next_cursor` value from the previous answer | `c10.k3mzqa` | | `response_format` | No | `concise` (default) or `detailed` | `detailed` | ## What The Answer Contains * The number of suppliers, the unit price range, and the MOQ range. * The countries of the matching suppliers, for example "All in China." * A table with one row for each supplier: label, company, unit price, MOQ, MOQ unit, years, rating, and country. * With `response_format=detailed`, the table adds reviews and the supplier URL. It adds lead time when a supplier has one, and for an `asin` list, the match type (`exact` or `similar`). Some suppliers have no price in US dollars for each item. They are not in the price range or the price filter, and sorting by unit price puts them last. A notice gives their number, and an `other_price` column shows their price when Launch Fast has one. A supplier with a rating of 0 has no rating yet, so its rating is empty. The card shows a dash. A `min_supplier_rating` above 0 leaves these suppliers out. The [`get_market`](https://docs.launchfastlegacyx.com/mcp/research/get-market) and [`get_product`](https://docs.launchfastlegacyx.com/mcp/research/get-product) suppliers views return this same list. ## App View When your AI app supports MCP Apps, it shows the answer in this view.

For an ASIN, use [`research_product`](https://docs.launchfastlegacyx.com/mcp/research/research-product). | | `invalid_input` | The call gave more than one of `query`, `market`, and `asin`, or none, or a filter value is out of range. | Give one of the three, and use the values in the inputs table. | | `not_found` | No market in the catalog matches `market`. | Search with [`find_markets`](https://docs.launchfastlegacyx.com/mcp/research/find-markets) first, or give a product phrase as `query`. | | `plan_required` | Your plan does not include this supplier list. | Check your plan on the [usage page](https://launchfastlegacyx.com/settings/usage). | ## Related Tools * [`research_suppliers`](https://docs.launchfastlegacyx.com/mcp/research/research-suppliers) searches for suppliers for a new phrase. * [`get_product`](https://docs.launchfastlegacyx.com/mcp/research/get-product) gives the estimated profit for each unit of a product.
