Ana runs software negotiations on your behalf. It reads your requirements, builds the strategy, drafts every email and tracks every round, updating the plan the moment a vendor responds. Trained on $75bn+ of vendor spend, 32,000+ vendors and 2M+ price points. Procurement buyers using Ana achieve 18% savings on average. Built by Vertice.
@etuvey, congrats on the launch! Sounds super interesting.
How effective is it? Is it relevant for SMBs trying to apply it to $ 40–$50/month SaaS contracts?
Hey Product Hunt I am Gabriel. Today we're launching Ana!
It benchmarks what you should be paying, writes the vendor emails, handles the back-and-forth, and knows when to stop.
Fun lesson from building it: "we're on a tight budget" almost never works. A specific, honest number does. So Ana never makes up a budget.
What's the worst price increase you've just accepted?
Hi, I'm Ethan - head of Data at Vertice. I'm really excited by Ana's launch today. Ana has already saved money for our customers through building detailed negotiation strategies and effective emails, and adapting its responses based on the vendor and Vertice's underlying negotiation and pricing data set. Happy to answer any questions about how Ana works :)
the one about Dial I dread is our SMS/carrier pass-through contracts, those renew on a schedule nobody owns. curious about the email side specifically - when Ana drafts and sends on my behalf, does the vendor rep know they're negotiating with an agent, or does it read as me writing it? that Tanya Wade quote about "doesn't sound like AI at all" is a selling point for us but I'd guess it cuts the other way for the vendor once they figure out what's actually on the other end of the thread
@galdayan It's a widespread problem for sure - contracts renew without oversight, and Ana was built to prevent that. Alongside Ana, the Vertice platform enables you to maintain control and visibility over your stack, with automated reminders scheduled for upcoming renewals so nothing slips through the cracks. You can run Ana as a negotiation copilot: Ana drafts emails personalized to you, which you can review before sending. It's sent from a managed inbox under your name, on your terms and requirements.
