Vendor Intelligence Weekly

Know your vendors.

Weekly briefings on the companies that matter to your team. Regulatory actions, M&A, pricing changes, ownership shifts — compiled from public sources, delivered before they become surprises.

Public sources only — no personal data processed

Intelligence, not noise.

Most vendor news searches return the vendor's own press releases. We use a two-pass approach to catch what they'd rather you missed.

01

Domain scan

We scan major enterprise IT and legal publications — Reuters, The Register, EU Commission filings, CRN — for headlines mentioning your vendors. This catches regulatory complaints, lawsuits, and analyst actions that vendor PR never leads with.

02

Per-vendor deep dive

Each vendor on your watchlist is researched individually, with findings from the domain scan as context. M&A, pricing changes, product launches, security incidents, leadership moves.

03

Structured briefing, delivered

Priority-sorted (HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW), with procurement watchpoints for each item. Every claim links to its primary source. PDF and searchable Markdown, every Thursday.

Your list. Your briefing.

There are no fixed editions to subscribe to. You tell us which companies to watch — we build your briefing around them. The examples below show watchlists built for IT procurement teams. They illustrate what’s possible, not what you’re limited to.

Build my watchlist

The stories vendors don't lead with.

A single search for "Broadcom news" returns Broadcom's press releases. It misses the CISPE EU antitrust complaint filed the same week — because CISPE, not Broadcom, was the actor.

Our domain scan reads the publications before it reads the vendors. Regulatory filings, industry group complaints, analyst downgrades, lawsuits filed by others — these appear in the briefing the same week they happen.

Regulatory actions

EU Commission complaints, CMA investigations, DOJ settlements — before they're press releases.

🔀
M&A and ownership changes

PE firms buying, selling, IPO-ing. Who owns your vendor today vs. six months ago.

💰
Pricing and licensing shifts

SKU restructuring, model changes, bundling. The signals that precede a difficult renewal.

🔒
Security incidents

CVEs, breaches, patch days — with procurement watchpoints, not just a CVE number.

👔
Leadership changes

CEO departures, new CFOs, restructuring. Signals of strategy change ahead.
