Frequently asked questions

How are alternatives selected?

ProcurementAI starts with published companies, prioritizes Tier 1 and Tier 2 where possible, checks scenario fit and use case overlap, then uses model-assisted review to separate strong alternatives, moderate alternatives, and adjacent options.

Are these direct competitors?

Not always. Some alternatives may be direct workflow overlaps, while others may be broader suites, specialized options, or adjacent choices for a similar buyer scenario.

What if ProcurementAI cannot find enough alternatives?

The page should not be published automatically. ProcurementAI can run candidate gap discovery, send newly found companies through the normal discovery and v3.0 review process, and regenerate the page only after those companies are accepted and published.
