Supplier qualification,
handled before it reaches your desk.

Questionnaires you can change by describing the change. Suppliers who respond in their own language. Certificates read on arrival, public records screened continuously, and a qualification score that shows its working. What reaches you is a decision, not an inbox.

Nothing for the vendor to installApproval stays a person's call
The honest version

How supplier onboarding usually goes, and how it goes here

Nobody sets out to run onboarding badly. It goes wrong because it is repetitive, and repetition is what people quietly stop doing when the week gets busy.

The challenge

You become the reminder service

The questionnaire goes out and then somebody has to remember it went out. A supplier stops halfway and stays stopped until a person notices and writes an email.

The follow-up runs itself

A supplier who stalls gets reminded without anybody noticing they stalled. You see that they resumed rather than wondering whether they will.

The challenge

A project nobody wants

Adding an insurance section means rebuilding the form, re-checking the logic and hoping nothing downstream broke. So the questionnaire stays as it is, asking what was convenient two years ago.

The challenge

A form in a language they half read

Long questionnaires in English are where onboarding quietly dies. The suppliers you most want to qualify are often the ones least able to finish the paperwork.

Their language, their voice

The questionnaire runs in the language they actually use, and they can answer by speaking. Your record still arrives in English.

A rating you cannot take apart

A number arrives with no way to see what produced it, so nobody quite believes it and everybody checks the underlying documents anyway.

A score that opens up

Every category shows the public records behind it and the weight it carries. A finding is shown against your own supplier details so you can judge it.

Vendors answer in their own language

The onboarding form runs in the vendor's language, by typing or by speaking, while your record stays in English. Read more about voice and language

  • Voice intake for suppliers who would abandon a written form
  • Answers arrive in English regardless of how they were given
  • Progress visible page by page as they work through it

Read and filed as they arrive

Certificates, tax forms and licences are read on upload, their expiry captured, and filed against the vendor. Read more about document collection

  • Documents read rather than opened and retyped
  • Expiry captured at upload, which is what makes renewals possible

How the pieces work together

The order matters more than the parts

What you ask determines what gets collected, what documents arrive, and what the EP Score has to work with. That is why the form is the first thing rather than an afterthought.

  • Branching rules mean vendors only see questions that apply to them
  • Document uploads are part of the form rather than a follow-up email
  • Change the form and the next invitation carries the change
  • Templates exist per vendor type, so a subcontractor and a software supplier differ

Once a vendor is in motion, the work continues overnight. Documents are read, expiry dates captured, records re-screened and scores refreshed before anyone opens the workspace.

  • Certificates read and filed at upload rather than opened later
  • Screening on a cycle rather than a one time check at onboarding
  • Scores refreshed when public records change
  • Stalled vendors chased without anybody keeping a list

The workspace gathers, reads, checks and summarises. It does not approve. A possible match is shown with both records side by side, and you decide what it means.

  • Findings presented with the evidence rather than a verdict
  • A false positive dismissed in one click, and the score recomputes
  • Every approval attributed to a named person
  • Nothing happens that you cannot see or reverse
Questions we get asked

Answered plainly

What does VendorHub actually do?
It runs vendor onboarding end to end. You build an onboarding form, send one link, the vendor answers in their own language, documents are read and filed automatically, public records are screened continuously, and an EP Score summarises the record before you approve.
What is VendorHub AI?
The assistant that builds and edits onboarding forms. You describe the change you want and it returns a reviewable change set listing every section, question and rule it would add or remove. Nothing applies until you accept it.
What is an EP Score?
A rating out of 100 built from verified public government and business records plus the quality of the vendor's submission. Each category carries a weight and opens to the exact sources behind it, so the number can always be interrogated.
Do vendors need an account?
No. They receive a secure link with nothing to install and no password to create. If they stall partway through, reminders go out automatically.
Can vendors onboard in another language?
Yes, by typing or by speaking. The form runs in their language while your record stays in English, which is what reaches suppliers who would otherwise abandon the process.
How often are vendors screened?
Continuously rather than once at onboarding. A listing that appears eighteen months after a vendor was approved is still caught, and possible matches are shown to a person with the evidence.
Can we import our existing vendors?
Yes, from CSV, Excel, PDF, Word or an image. Field mapping handles column names that do not match, and duplicates of vendors you already hold are skipped rather than creating a second record.
Does anything get approved automatically?
No. The workspace collects, reads, screens and scores. Approving a vendor stays a decision a named person makes, and it is recorded as theirs.
