VendorEX — Vendor Proposal Analysis

Compares 50–200 page vendor proposals through natural-language queries — minutes instead of days.

The challenge

What was breaking

Procurement teams evaluated vendor bids manually, taking 3–5 days per equipment category with multiple reviewers, high inconsistency and missed insights.

The solution

VendorEX

VendorEX ingests vendor proposals, extracts specs, pricing, SLAs and terms, and lets evaluators query and compare them in natural language with confidence-scored answers.

  • Spec-level deltas across vendors
  • SLA, warranty and penalty clause comparison
  • CAPEX vs OPEX cost breakdown with hidden-fee flags
  • Natural-language Q&A across proposals
