Problem

With HBM mass production scaling up, demand for test equipment (probe cards, burn-in testers, etc.) is surging. Equipment procurement managers at semiconductor back-end companies (20–100 employees) must compare specs, pricing, and lead times across 10+ domestic and international vendors by contacting each individually. Comparison takes 2–4 weeks, and selecting the wrong specs can result in tens of thousands of dollars in repurchase costs.

Solution

Builds a standardized database of HBM test equipment vendor product specs (bandwidth, pin count, temperature range, etc.) to auto-generate spec comparison tables. Recommends suitable equipment based on user requirements and provides automated RFQ (Request for Quote) dispatch to multiple vendors simultaneously.

Target: Equipment procurement and facilities managers at semiconductor back-end and test specialist companies with 20–100 employees
Revenue Model: Premium SaaS — spec comparison free, RFQ automation $74/account/month, vendor matching commission 1% on closed quotes
Ecosystem Role: Consumer
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
