Yelp for government contracting? Procurated launches Canary

May 17, 2024 - venturebeat.com
Procurated, a company launched in 2019, has developed an AI-powered platform called Canary that acts as a "Yelp" for government agencies, allowing them to review and score potential contractors or suppliers. The platform aggregates reviews and performance insights, giving each supplier a national and state score. The tool also alerts agencies when there is a problem with a supplier, allowing for early intervention.

Canary also offers a version of its service for contractors/suppliers, allowing them to see their own scores and how they compare to rivals in their area. The platform uses structured qualitative data from reviews to help suppliers understand their performance on various dimensions such as inventory, customer service, and pricing. Procurated monetizes through a software-as-a-service annual subscription model, with rates varying depending on the amount of data suppliers want access to.
