Vertice Ana (Autonomous Negotiation Agent for software purchases)

What it does

Vertice is a London-headquartered AI procurement platform for SaaS and indirect spend (intake-to-procure, procure-to-pay, vendor and contract management, pricing benchmarks). Per Vertice's Sep 8, 2026 launch release, Ana 'runs unlimited numbers of custom negotiations simultaneously on customers' behalf'. It builds scenario-specific strategies, selects levers and sequences, models likely outcomes at each step (Monte Carlo simulations), drafts every interaction and tracks every vendor exchange. It 'operates either autonomously end to end, or as a copilot should teams prefer to review each round'. Customers set priorities (price, payment terms, contract length), share vendor history and set the tone, and exchanges are drafted in the customer's own voice learned from previous email. Vertice says Ana has run more than 4,000 live negotiations with 18% average savings and 15 days cut from cycles, and gives an example of it enforcing a customer's data-protection policy by obtaining subprocessor transparency and SOC 2 Type II evidence from a new vendor (vendor claims). Every negotiation keeps a full audit trail of strategy, rationale and dialogue. Vertice acquired Vendr. Pricing is not published.
