Frequently asked questions
Will you start charging later?
No. The product isn’t designed to monetize through customer fees. SpendHound scaling depends on staying free.
Is our data secure?
Yes. Even our finance and healthcare customers put heavy restrictions in place and still use it safely. SpendHound can ingest only the accounts you approve and nothing else.
What exactly do you collect?
Vendor name, amount, date, and invoice details. Not user data, IP, or employee PII.
Why offer procurement experts for free?
Because more negotiated deals means richer benchmark data, which becomes a much more valuable product than charging you $20-100K a year.
Is the benchmark data reliable if it’s free?
Customers repeatedly say it’s more reliable than crowdsourced or scraped data. Benchmarks show real contracted spend, whereas surveys don’t.
