Persona · Procurement & VRM

Vendor risk that's live, not annual.

Ingest supplier SBOMs, run AI-vendor diligence, automate questionnaires, and watch your supplier graph continuously — instead of chasing attestations once a year and hoping nothing changed.

What your week looks like today.

Vendor security questionnaires take two weeks per vendor and you have 80 of them.

Half your supplier list hasn't produced an SBOM and the regulator wants one.

A new supplier ships an AI feature — nobody knows what models or datasets it uses.

Your 'continuous monitoring' is an annual attestation form everyone fills in identically.

A supplier just got breached; you spend four days mapping which products they're in.

M&A diligence on a software target needs eight weeks and three external firms.
