What you'll walk away with

For every new supplier above your threshold — a 5-min due-diligence pass with green/yellow/red. Documented file in case of audit or dispute.

The idea
A bad supplier shuts down your line. A bad supplier with a problem you could've seen coming — financial distress, key-person departures, public litigation — shuts down your line and makes you look unprepared. AI gives you a 5-minute due-diligence pass on every supplier before you commit to a PO.
The win: fewer line-down events, better insurance posture, stronger negotiation leverage.

$20/mo Synthesizes the brief

Typical spend: from $32/month — most owners start on the free tiers and upgrade only the one tool they use daily.

Realistic setup time: ~45 min to build the synthesis prompt + workflow. ~5 min per supplier after that.

A one-time setup, done at your own pace. After that it runs in minutes a day.

The step-by-step

  1. 1

    Public data check

    For every new supplier above $-threshold, run a quick public-data check: company financial signals, ownership, recent news, key-person footprint.

  2. 2

    Incumbents

    For incumbents, schedule the same check annually.
