Overview

The Network Feed is a live window into the nodes you are connected to via Querying Connections . It continuously streams listings (supply and demand) from those nodes, giving you real-time visibility into materials, pricing, and availability across your trusted network. This means the feed isn’t a global marketplace — it’s scoped to the companies and nodes you’ve established querying connections with. The result is a live, tailored view of opportunities that are relevant to your business. The feed is organized into three views:
  • Not Actioned – new listings you haven’t interacted with yet
  • Actioned – listings where you’ve already taken action (e.g., quoted, countered, or responded)
  • All – the complete history of listings available through your connections
You can further refine the feed with date range filters or by subscribing to specific companies.

​
Listings Table

Each row in the feed represents a listing coming directly from one of your connected nodes. Key fields include:
  • Created – when the listing was posted
  • Company – who published the listing
  • Material No – part number or internal code
  • Manufacturer (MFR) – part manufacturer
  • Quantity (QTY) – available or requested amount
  • Price – listed unit price
  • Timing – expected delivery or availability window
  • Type – supply or demand
  • Source – the node or partner where the listing originated
From here, you can select listings, filter them, or export for offline review.

​
Quoting Listings

To take action on a listing:
  1. Select the material(s) you want to respond to.
  2. Click Quote Listing.
  3. A side panel will appear with the full listing details.
  4. Enter your quote information:
    • Quantity
    • Unit Price (AI-assisted benchmarks included)
    • Timing (e.g., immediate, 14 days, 4 weeks)
    • Message (optional note to counterpart)
  5. Submit the quote to send it back to the publishing company.
Why it matters: This creates structured, auditable negotiations directly in Seminode — eliminating messy back-and-forth via email.

​
Subscriptions

Subscriptions let you filter the live feed down to the companies and nodes you specifically care about. Steps to manage subscriptions:
  1. Open the Subscriptions menu in the feed.
  2. Enable the Feed Filter to only show subscribed listings.
  3. Add companies by entering their Public Key and clicking + Add.
  4. Refresh to apply changes.
Why it matters: Subscriptions ensure your feed reflects only high-value opportunities, not everything available from every connection.
