crossBOM combines automated lifecycle screening with real person review to flag what's obsolete or at risk on your BOM. Substitutes reviewed and recommended by more than just an algorithm.
Lead times on power semiconductors, memory, and passives have stretched well past what most BOMs were designed to tolerate, and allocation means franchise distributors can't always fill the gap in time. Most manufacturers don't find out a part is discontinued until they try to order it — and by then, the options are expensive and limited.
When demand outpaces supply, manufacturers ration parts to their largest customers first — smaller orders wait, sometimes for months.
A last-time-buy notice can sit in a distributor feed for weeks before anyone on a small team actually sees it.
Scarcity pulls counterfeit and mismarked parts into the open market — exactly when teams are under the most pressure to source fast.
No platform to log into, no annual contract to sign first. The first check is free — after that, you decide whether ongoing monitoring is worth it. See full pricing →
Send a BOM. Get back a plain-English report — in 24 hours or less — on what's healthy, what's worth watching, and what needs action now. See a sample report →
Once you know your BOM's baseline, crossBOM keeps watching it — so the next EOL notice reaches you before it reaches your production line.
Automation handles the scale — checking every part against real lifecycle data in minutes. A real person handles the judgment — verifying every flag and validating every substitute before it reaches you.
A CSV or spreadsheet export is enough — part number, manufacturer, and quantity.
Every line is checked against real lifecycle status — active, NRND, obsolete, or last-time-buy.
A real person reviews every flag and checks candidate substitutes against the datasheet.
A short, plain-English writeup: what's fine, what to watch, what needs a decision.
Small contract manufacturers and independent electronic designers working from BOMs that haven't been checked against today's supply chain
Startups who want an extra layer of expertise around material sourcing without hiring for it
Teams juggling component decisions alongside everything else on their plate
Anyone who's found out a part was discontinued after trying to order it
crossBOM is built on hands-on component engineering experience inside contract electronics manufacturing — the same work of sourcing drop-in replacements for obsolete or hard-to-find parts, done daily on real production BOMs.
Automated screening does the heavy lifting of checking every line at scale. But every flag and every substitute is verified by a real person before it reaches you — not just a red flag and a link to a distributor search.
The first health check is free, delivered in 24 hours or less — there's no commitment past that. If it's useful, we can talk about what ongoing monitoring would look like for you.
