Zip

AI procurement platform for enterprise purchasing and approvals.

Visit Zip

Zip is an AI procurement platform for enterprise purchasing that coordinates procurement activity from intake through payment. It addresses the fragmented, manual work involved in employee purchase requests, approvals, supplier onboarding, contracts, sourcing, risk reviews, and invoice management by routing work across teams and systems in one orchestration layer.

The platform includes Intake-to-Procure, Procure-to-Pay, Contract Orchestration, Sourcing, Risk Orchestration, and Supplier Onboarding modules, supported by a workflow engine, intake management, spend insights, and an integration ecosystem. Purpose-built AI agents handle tasks such as intake validation, price negotiation, and contract review, while Superagents and MCP extend automation. Add-ons cover Global Payments, Vendor Cards, Budgets, and App Studio, with connections to ERP and financial systems, contract and e-sign tools, risk management, email and messaging, supplier and banking systems, source and spend tools, and T&E and payments.

Zip is aimed at procurement, finance, accounting, IT and security, and legal teams across startups, mid-market companies, and enterprises, including life sciences, manufacturing, financial services, technology, and professional services. The platform supports payments across more than 140 countries and offers SOC 1 Type 2, SOC 2 Type 2, EU-US DPF, GDPR, and ISO 27001 compliance. The pages describe a demo-based sales process and an Enterprise Transformation Office for implementation support, but do not specify a free plan, trial, or pricing model.
