Stop Buying Tools You Already Own - Build a Vendor Evaluation Agent in Minutes
Someone on your team asks for a new tool. Before you start a buying process, there's one question worth answering: does a vendor we already pay do this?
With thousands of vendors in the ERP, that takes days to answer by hand. So most teams skip it and buy.
You'll build an agent that answers it in seconds - and you'll leave the session with a working version in your own workspace.
What you'll learn
An agent that takes a plain-language requirement and returns the vendors already in your stack that cover it, ranked by fit.
Decision context attached to each match: contract terms, current spend, and when the renewal lands.
The same agent, run three ways - vendor evaluation, head-to-head comparison, and alternatives - by changing the prompt, not the setup.
Live connections to your contract, spend, and ERP data.
Why it matters
Every net-new vendor you avoid is a buying cycle you don't run, a security review you don't queue, and a contract you don't negotiate from zero. Consolidating that spend with a vendor already in your stack gives you a better position at their next renewal. This one is cost avoidance, not productivity.
Who this is for
Procurement teams doing day-to-day vendor evaluation, and the stakeholders who file tool requests. Built for larger organizations where nobody can hold the full vendor list in their head.
