About Zartman.io

Calmer RFQs, curated shops, real humans.

Zartman.io exists because most RFQs still pinball between inboxes, spreadsheets, and endless status calls. We built one calm workspace where buyers can upload parts, route to a trusted bench of shops, and keep every DFM note, bid, and award decision in the same view.

The goal isn't another blast marketplace. It's a service that pairs vetted suppliers with the right kind of work, keeps conversations private, and steps in when projects get weird so teams can keep moving.

The people behind it

Built by people who have lived inside RFQs

We'll keep adding more of the crew here. For now, you're mostly talking to Jackson.

Founder, Zartman.io

Jackson Zartman

Jackson has spent the past decade running RFQ desks, partnering with machine shops across the U.S., and helping digital factories keep complex builds on track. He knows the back-and-forth between buyers and suppliers because he's lived it from both sides. Zartman.io exists to give that quoting scramble a calmer system without losing the human judgement that wins work.

How we work with buyers

A calm cockpit for uploads, bids, and awards

We help you keep RFQs private, keep suppliers accountable, and make confident award calls.

  • Private RFQs routed to a vetted, curated supplier bench
  • Hands-on help with DFM reviews and award decisions when work stalls
  • No obligation to award—move forward only when price, lead time, and fit align

How we work with suppliers

A better bench for shops

Shops get the right work, space to ask questions, and a clear read on outcomes.

  • Right-fit RFQs that match your machines and capacity, not random spam
  • Room to ask clarification questions before quoting
  • Visibility into awards and feedback so you always know where you stand

Looking ahead

Where this is going

We're shipping tools that make matching faster and quoting less manual, without taking humans out of the loop. The roadmap is grounded in what buyers and shops ask for every week.

  • Better matching signals between buyer intent, part geometry, and supplier capacity
  • More automation around RFQ intake, quote reminders, and follow-ups
  • Humans stay in the loop for tricky DFM calls and supplier relationships
