Real People.
Real Factories.
Not Just a Platform.
Xometry and Fictiv are software platforms. Dewin is a team physically inside Vietnam factories every week — auditing, photographing, and ensuring your parts are right before they ever ship.
Why "On the Ground" Matters
When you're switching from China to Vietnam to beat Section 301 tariffs, you can't afford a factory that looks great on a website but fails on delivery. You need eyes inside.

What Our Team Does — Every Week
These aren't desk jobs. Our team is on factory floors across Vietnam, doing the work that keeps your supply chain clean.
50-Point Dolphin Audit
Before any factory joins our network, our team physically visits and scores them across 5 pillars: quality management, equipment capability, labor compliance, environmental standards, and financial stability. If they don't score, they don't ship your parts.
Learn about the Dolphin Audit →1,700+ Real Factory Photos
Our team photographs every machine, every production line, every QC station. Over 1,700 real photos from 179+ audited factories. You see exactly where your parts are made — not a stock photo, not a render, the actual floor.
Browse Factory Profiles →Inspection Before It Ships
Our QC engineers inspect production samples before your order leaves Vietnam. Dimensional checks, surface finish review, tolerance verification. Problems get caught at the factory, not at your dock three weeks later.
Our Quality Standards →Long-Term Factory Partnerships
We don't broker one-off orders. Our team builds long-term relationships with each factory — understanding their capacity, peak seasons, and new equipment investments. That intelligence feeds back into your sourcing decisions.
Take a Virtual Factory Tour →The Roles Behind the Network
A sourcing network is only as good as the people running it. Here's who's working on your supply chain.
