We’re the team behind [Procoto](https://procoto.com/). We’re on a mission to make procurement software more accessible and affordable for everyone.\\\n\\\n**tl;dr:** Procoto makes running RFPs, tracking contracts, and managing vendors simple and affordable. We get procurement teams out of dense systems and spreadsheets without having to drop a hefty check on SAP or Coupa.\n\nAnd it’s self-service! No sales calls, redlines, or lengthy implementations. Snag our [YC launch offer](https://app.procoto.com/register?ref=yc) to get started!\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=71192&key=user_uploads/488165/ab363823-cd33-4b41-9d5e-05867dcf4d98)\n\n### **😤 The problem with procurement software**\n\nSmall and mid-market companies face the same sourcing, contract, vendor, and spend management challenges of larger organizations, but with fewer resources and without the funds for an enterprise procurement platform.\n\n* RFPs are conducted with spreadsheets and emails\n* Time is wasted searching for, selecting, and inviting vendors to bid\n* Contract terms, vendor information, and spend data are spread across systems\n* Person hours are dedicated to data management rather than securing better rates\n* Historical bidding and pricing disappear after the RFP\n* The alternative solution today is a six-figure annual agreement with one of the big boys\n\n### **😇 How we’re fixing it**\n\nProcoto eschews (bless you) the complexity and the feature bloat of enterprise procurement software. We keep it simple and user-friendly in a tool built for everyone. Procoto automates the collection of RFP, contract, and vendor information into a centralized system and highlights savings opportunities based on historical data.\n\n\n\n### 😍 **Community fav features**\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=71192&key=user_uploads/488165/d8592dd5-c2e2-4c7c-a311-5d8074c6eb9c)\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=71192&key=user_uploads/488165/9351376a-c992-482d-97d0-b34f049aed42)\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=71192&key=user_uploads/488165/39700cd7-521e-4664-ae5c-a319dd365891)\n\n### **🤡 Why us?**\n\nWe built procurement organizations at a couple of startups and have used 30+ of our competitors’ software. We lived the pain we’re solving for years and finally left to build the solution we couldn’t find Something self-service, customizable, with UI/UX from this decade, and built for users without supply chain degrees.\n\n### **🙏🏻 Our ask**\n\n* Give Procoto a whirl if you run RFPs, sign contracts, or work with third-party vendors\n* We’d love to talk to and learn from anyone in the procurement world, especially those in multi-site businesses:\n * Franchises\n * Hospitality\n * Restaurants\n * Apartment groups\n * PEs that manage any of the above\n\n### **👀 The YC Deal**\n\n* 30-day trial\n* Complimentary vendor and contract data cleanup\n* 40% off your first year if you go monthly ($59/mo)\n* 50% off your first year if you go annual ($479/yr)\n* [Redeem here](https://app.procoto.com/register?ref=yc)\n\nIf you’d like to learn more or have questions, shoot us an email at [michael@procoto.com](mailto:michael@procoto.com)!", "url": "https://www.ycombinator.com/launches/IWG-procoto-manage-rfps-contracts-and-vendors-with-ease", "votes": 7, "created_at": "2023-04-25T15:59:36.763Z" } ] }, { "id": 23315, "name": "Alpas", "slug": "alpas", "former_names": [ "Alpas GmbH" ], "small_logo_thumb_url": "https://bookface-images.s3.amazonaws.com/small_logos/f75fa5cbbbd1f82f9e195e9eef79a92f3f74333b.png", "website": "https://alpas.ai/", "all_locations": "Berlin, Berlin, Germany", "long_description": "Alpas provides data-driven sourcing for procurement departments of mid and large-cap manufacturing companies.

Public sector procurement is a time-intensive process held together by Microsoft Office, legacy point solutions, tribal knowledge, and severely overworked civil servants. Hazel is building an AI-powered platform to accelerate and streamline this mission. \n\nWe’ve engaged hundreds of government agencies with diverse missions, and we’ve been hard at work building something they want. We’re already on contract with several governments and have received funding from agencies ranging from public school districts to the U.S. Navy!\n\nIf you know anyone supporting government procurement, please contact us! \n\n### 🦅 **About Us + What’s New** \n\nWe’re Elton and August, and we along with our 3 amazing founding software engineers currently operate out of NYC, Boston, DC, and Salt Lake City. We’re excited to (finally) re-launch Hazel, an AI-native solution **which enables government procurement teams to quickly and easily manage their procurement processes**.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=87095&key=user_uploads/1279709/df8d3560-f897-4131-b217-b9a76fc3525c)\n\nThe two of us met in college before taking separate jobs at Palantir and Boston Consulting Group, but our focus on public service remained the same, and we saw something that we knew had to be fixed. Along the way, we’ve picked up incredible mission-driven teammates with experience from Lockheed Martin, MITRE, SpaceX, Peraton, the U.S. Air Force, the U.S. Department of State, and USAID. \n\nWe began by building a solution for businesses to bid on RFPs because we wanted to help governments. The idea was that by bringing more businesses to the table, more competitive bids would both save governments money and deliver better performance. However, we soon realized that if our mission was to help government, we will best accomplish that by going directly B2G, not B2B2G. It means accepting the known challenges of selling to government as a startup (long sales cycles, a litany of compliance standards, nobody returns your emails, a new language of business, etc.), but nothing worthwhile - or fulfilling - comes easy.\n\n### 🏛**️ Problem** \n\nCivil servants in procurement are overwhelmed. \\~30% of procurement roles in government are unfilled as these employees retire or quit. Their current solutions are dated – one to two _decades_ behind the equivalent in B2B SaaS, gated behind sleepy incumbents leveraging political connections and litigation to stay on top. The lack of tools and talent means governments are more stretched than ever when it comes to buying the goods and services they need in a compliant and timely manner. This challenge is eating away at all levels of government, from local K-12 school districts to the Pentagon. As prices rise and the demands on governments grow, it becomes even more critical to strategically purchase the right tools for their success. Failure means degradation in service delivery, bad publicity, or even disaster. \n\nA maze of legal restrictions, understaffed departments, and growing complexity of requirements have made it near impossible to rapidly procure goods and services without defaulting to an existing incumbent. Governments would love to diversify their options or recompete… but choosing the default has shifted from a matter of convenience to an operational necessity. Over $2.7T is on the line for public procurement _annually._ \n\nThere has never been a more pressing – or opportune – time to address the procurement challenges taxing our government’s efficiency. Climate goals require rapidly procuring sustainable and efficient energy solutions nationwide. The new era of great power competition requires procuring novel weapon systems at scale to secure democracies in the Pacific and Eastern Europe. Our aging procurement systems are creaking under their weight and cannot unlock the potential of our nation.\n\n### 🔥 **Solution** \n\nHazel’s platform accelerates and automates the rote, time-intensive tasks of researching, generating and managing solicitations. Instead of trading documents over email and doing market research via cursory Google searches, civil servants should have a single streamlined platform that assists them in doing their jobs. \n\nHazel combines AI agents and a modern UI/UX to deliver a consumer-grade solution that surfaces critical information to human decision-makers, saving time and driving better outcomes. Hazel is the AI superpower for procurement teams short on staff and time but hungry for innovation and a way to do things better.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=87095&key=user_uploads/1279709/ce5def23-288b-44fe-baa4-39c4fb09bcb8)\n\n_(Screenshot of the Hazel platform) Save legal-approved boilerplates, design content sections using our AI agents, and drag-and-drop them into templates.

Contracts are separately posted on thousands of different websites and can include hundreds of pages of overlapping compliance regulations. Responding to bids can require entire business divisions supported by armies of consultants and in-house lawyers. Even the simplest of contracts – if you can find one that fits your business – require responses spanning dozens of pages, and the tiniest compliance error will jeopardize your entire submission.\n\nThe US has created a system where it is almost impossible for SMBs to win work with the government. As incumbents become even more entrenched, governments face increasing prices and deteriorating performance because they have allowed for no alternatives. With over $1T of infrastructure funding now on the line for award, the US cannot afford the status quo.\n\n### **🧠 Solution**\n\nUse AI to automate discovery, drafting, and compliance. Instead of spending days trawling local websites and weeks writing fruitless proposals, you should only spend minutes defining your scope of work and price.\n\nUse Hazel to get matched to a potential contract, synthesize a draft response based on the RFP and your company information, create a checklist of to-dos, and run compliance checks.

We’d love to talk.\n\n**The Offer**: We’re offering customers a white-glove pilot with no implementation fee.\n\nAfter a brief onboarding call, we’ll do the work required to configure Saldor, connect your existing systems, and load real company data so your team can evaluate it in a live workflow for a short period at no cost.\n\n\n\n**The Problem**\n\nBuying something at a company is rarely as simple as placing an order.\n\nAn employee submits a request. Procurement checks vendors, pricing, security, and lead times. Finance reviews the budget. Legal may review a contract. Someone creates a purchase order, follows up with the vendor, tracks delivery, and eventually matches the invoice against what was ordered and received.\n\nMany companies still manage this through email and spreadsheets, or procurement systems that are expensive and cumbersome to operate.\n\nThe problem gets worse for companies building ambitious physical infrastructure. When data centers, factories, and robotics companies cannot get the right equipment on time, entire projects can be delayed.\n\nWe saw this firsthand at Crusoe, where we helped build GPU data centers. Existing procurement systems could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to implement, required large teams to operate, and still slowed the business down.\n\n**Our solution**\n\nSaldor is an AI-native procurement and accounts payable tool.\n\nEmployees can request goods or services, and Saldor routes each request through the appropriate approval, security, legal, and finance workflows.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post&id=104430&key=user_uploads/1733940/50e219d2-f23a-4531-b6f6-1c4410b188d2)\n\nOur AI agent communicates directly with vendors to collect documents, follow up on quotes and delivery dates, and keep records updated automatically.\n\nSaldor can then generate purchase orders, track receipts, process invoices, and match bills against what was ordered and received.\n\nTeams can also interact with Saldor through MCP and connect it to their ERP, accounting system, or other internal tools.\n\n**The Team**\n\nJack and Jacob worked together as Crusoe building AI infrastructure before leaving to start Saldor.

An engineer tells us what part they need. Our agents and humans source it anywhere in the world, get quotes, handle payment, shipping, customs, last mile, log it into inventory and match the invoices. One system of record from request to stock. We don’t stop at the ‘order placed’. We make sure it reaches your shelf. A few crazy things Waybill was asked to source & order -\n\n1. A lifetime supply of an obsolete RF component\n2. Cessna aircraft. Yes, real airplanes\n3. Industrial Robots\n\nLaunch video: \n\n**Backstory**\n\nI (Rishi) ran operations at LAT Aerospace (Deepinder Goyal’s aerospace startup) as part of their founding team. On paper, that meant \"sourcing.\" In practice, it meant finding jet engines, flight controllers, high-density batteries, and satellite radios for a very ambitious aerospace program, then moving machinery and merchandise worth millions across borders, and finding and operating real estate you can actually fly aircraft from. I also handled government liaisoning, which is a polite way of saying I convinced the world's harshest bureaucracy to approve things it didn't have a form for, like taking off and landing an aircraft in under 50 meters.\n\nTushar has been working the other end of this problem his whole career. At WareIQ (YC S20), he built the autonomous inventory system behind 400+ Indian D2C brands - forecasting demand and making buying decisions across thousands of volatile SKUs without blowing up working capital.\n\nSo between us: I've spent my career buying hardware the hard way, and Tushar's spent his teaching machines to manage inventory. Waybill is both jobs in one system.\n\n**The problem**\n\nHardware engineers spend a big chunk of their week buying parts. They can't hand it off to operations folks, because only the engineer who specified the part knows which alternates are acceptable. And finding parts is genuinely hard: stock is scattered across distributor catalogs, resellers, and Alibaba listings, and packaging suffixes, obsolete part numbers, and regional inventory make the same part look like six different parts. It's a search, not a lookup.\n\nAll of this runs on email, WhatsApp, and spreadsheets. No system of record, and context dilutes at every handoff. Parts land late, arrive undocumented, or get bought twice. I know because at LAT, _I was the system of record_. It didn't scale.\n\n**What we built**\n\nAn engineer tells Waybill what they need. Our agents find every authorized distributor and manufacturer rep stocking that part anywhere in the world, request quotes and lead times, and rank the options by what the customer actually cares about. A defence company only wants suppliers from allied nations. A medical device company needs provenance. Everyone else wants the right balance of cost, lead time, and complexity.\n\nIf no distributor has it, our network in India, China, and Southeast Asia finds it. If a supplier can't ship to the customer's country, we pick up the box and ship it ourselves.\n\nOnce the order is placed, our agents prepare the customs paperwork, a licensed broker files it, parts are received into inventory automatically, and the invoice is automatically matched against the PO and import documents. The next time someone asks for that part, the agent says it's already on the shelf.\n\nAnd when a customer moves from R&D to production, the same system scales with them. Demand comes off the BOM and build schedule - reorder points, second sources, volume pricing - and we already hold every order, price, and lead time they've ever had.\n\nMost procurement software ends at an approved PO. We end at a physical part on a shelf, customs-cleared and invoice-matched.\n\nRippling made the employee the first-class object and built every service around it. We're doing the same for the part.\n\nHere are a few crazy things engineering teams asked Waybill to procure in the two weeks that we’ve been live -\n\n1. A lifetime purchase of an obsolete RF component\n2. Cessna aircraft. Yes, real airplanes.\n3. Industrial Robots\n\n**Where this goes**\n\nA hardware company should be able to ask us for anything physical and get it. Today that's parts. Next it's PCB fab and assembly, CNC machining, 3D printing, tooling, trucking, warehousing, and allocation on ships and planes. The interface never changes: say what you need, and it arrives.\n\n**Asks**\n\n1. Hardware and deep-tech founders - we want to run your procurement. Comment, DM, or email me at [rishi@waybill.to](mailto:rishi@waybill.to). We’re company size agnostic.\n2. Intros to procurement leads at hardware enterprises. If you know one, we'd love a connect.\n\n**Ask for it and it shows up.
