Built by engineers, for engineers

Elexess was born inside a German electronics manufacturer that needed a better way to source components. We searched for a tool that could query every distributor at once, in real time, with an API. It didn't exist — so we built it.

Born from real need

Elexess started inside Newmatik GmbH, a German EMS company. Our purchasing team was burning hours every day searching supplier websites one by one. We built Elexess to solve our own problem first.

Battle-tested internally

For over a year, every Newmatik quote, BOM check, and sourcing decision ran through Elexess. Thousands of real-world searches shaped the feature set before a single external user signed up.

Now open to everyone

Today Elexess is available as a SaaS platform and REST API. Whether you're a solo hardware engineer or a 500-person procurement department, you get the same speed and data quality we rely on ourselves.

Everything you need to source smarter

A modern component search platform built for speed, accuracy, and developer ergonomics.

Real-time streaming search

Results appear as suppliers respond, so you can review early matches while the rest of the search completes.

Dozens of suppliers, one query

Search Digi-Key, Mouser, Farnell, Arrow, RS, TME, Rutronik, and many more simultaneously. No more tab-hopping between supplier websites.

Bring your own API keys

Pro and Enterprise teams can connect their supplier accounts for contract pricing, stock information, and account-specific access where supported.

Developer-first REST API

JSON and SSE endpoints with bearer-token auth. Automate BOM costing, purchasing workflows, and inventory checks with a few lines of code.

Team management & RBAC

Invite your purchasing team, manage supplier access, set a preferred currency, and control access from a single dashboard.

Watchlists and risk trends

Pro teams can watch critical parts, monitor risk level changes over time, and prioritize sourcing actions before shortages escalate.

Daily exchange rates

Compare prices in EUR, USD or GBP using exchange rates updated daily. Check the supplier quote before placing an order.

How it works

From part number to a clearer sourcing decision.

1

Enter a part number

Type an MPN, keyword, or partial part number into the search bar or call the API.

2

Results stream in live

Available suppliers are queried in parallel. Prices, stock, MOQs, and lead times appear as each responds.

3

Compare and decide

Sort by price, stock depth, or supplier. Click through to datasheets or the distributor's checkout page.
