Overview

Arkestro is a predictive procurement platform that proposes prices and terms to suppliers instead of sending blank requests for quotation. Its models learn from a buyer's past awards to suggest a starting number, which shortens negotiation cycles considerably. Large manufacturers and retailers use it for direct parts and indirect spend.
