Make the right selection with the right data

Market share shifts

See which vendors are gaining 
or losing category share, 
based on real spend 
movement — not press releases or funding announcements.

Vendor performance signals

Adoption and retention trends are the best proxy for vendor health. Spot a vendor in decline before their problems become your problems.

New vendor discovery

Catch emerging vendors gaining real traction in a category before they show up on anyone’s shortlist.

Category trend views

Zoom out to see where whole categories are heading — and whether your stack reflects where the market is going or where it’s been.

Before Vendor Trends
You shortlist from a review grid and an analyst quadrant, pick the loudest vendor, and learn two years in that you bet on the one losing the category.
With Vendor Trends
You see which vendors companies like yours actually adopt and keep. Shortlists build themselves from evidence, and you walk into renewals knowing exactly where to spend instead of invest.
