What Trust Your Supplier does

Trust Your Supplier (TYS) is an AI-native supplier intelligence platform for procurement, risk, compliance, and finance teams. Founded in 2018 and headquartered in Morrisville, North Carolina, the company operates as a subsidiary of IT People Corporation and serves mid-market and enterprise organizations managing 500 or more suppliers. Its core product is a unified platform combining six modules — Supplier Intake and Orchestration, Risk and Compliance Monitoring, Policy Management, Fraud Prevention, Tariff and Trade Compliance, and Supplier Solutions — augmented by an AI decision-intelligence layer that includes the TYS Contextual Risk Agent. The platform is differentiated by a verified, blockchain-backed supplier data foundation covering 500,000-plus pre-vetted suppliers, on top of which agentic AI delivers contextual risk insights, recommended actions with owners and due dates, and continuous monitoring for sanctions, financial health, ESG, and cyber threats. This data-first architecture is the company's primary technical differentiator versus procurement AI tools that operate on fragmented, self-reported supplier data.

The company monetizes primarily through annual SaaS subscriptions. TYS Essentials, launched in July 2025, is a modular entry-level SKU priced from $25,000 per year targeting mid-market organizations managing 500 or more suppliers, while enterprise contracts are sold via a field sales motion and direct "Talk to Sales" engagement. Go-to-market combines ROI calculators, interactive product tours, gated whitepapers, blog-driven thought leadership, and event participation such as the ProcureTech Cup and ProcureTech100 recognition programs. Customers include PepsiCo, Beazley, BT Sourced, and Gentex Corporation, with additional enterprise case studies spanning energy, telecom, software, and insurance verticals, plus a dedicated Municipal Fraud Solutions offering for the public sector. Reported customer outcomes include up to 60% onboarding cycle time reduction, 41% less risk screening effort, 17% fewer duplicate suppliers, and an ROI calculator citing 1,140% ROI with payback under two months for organizations onboarding 300 suppliers annually. TYS has completed six consecutive years of SOC 1 Type 2 and SOC 2 Type 2 examinations with zero exceptions, audited by A-LIGN Assurance, supporting positioning in regulated and security-conscious procurement environments.
