Features:

SpendSphere.ai is a dynamic spend analytics solution, designed by procurement professionals for procurement professionals.

Built with over 20 years of expertise in the field, SpendSphere enables you to take full control of your data and procurement insights.

Unlike traditional tools that are slow and IT-dependent, SpendSphere.ai empowers your team to bypass development bottlenecks and achieve faster, more accurate results.

Fully customizable and user-friendly, SpendSphere puts you in the driver’s seat, giving you the flexibility to tailor the solution to your unique business needs without relying on external support.

Your Taxonomy

Every company is different, and so is the way you classify your spend. With SpendSphere.ai, we don’t force you into rigid frameworks like UNSPSC or any other pre-defined classification systems. Instead, we give you the freedom to create and customize your own taxonomy, ensuring your spend data is organized, displayed, and analyzed in a way that truly aligns with your unique business needs. Whether you need a simple one or two-level structure or a more complex four-level classification as your organization matures, SpendSphere adapts to your growth.

What’s more, when you update your taxonomy, SpendSphere seamlessly rolls those changes across historical data, ensuring consistent classification across all your spend—past and present. This means you’ll never have to worry about discrepancies between old and new data, giving you a unified, reliable view of your spend over time. With SpendSphere, you stay in control of your data without the hassle.

Don't have to wait on IT

With SpendSphere.ai, you no longer have to rely on IT to extract data in specific formats or deal with the frustration of going back and forth for changes—or worse, discovering they’ve made changes without you knowing. If you can run a PO, Invoice, or Contracts report from your ERP or other systems, you’re ready to start working with SpendSphere. Our solution empowers you to upload and update your data on your own terms, without the delays or bottlenecks of traditional IT dependencies. This means you can take control of your spend analysis, make adjustments in real-time, and stay agile as your needs evolve—without waiting for IT to catch up.

If you wish to fully integrate data connections between SpendSphere and your other systems, we can seamlessly collaborate with your IT team to make it happen. But the best part? You don’t need full integration to get started or to extract maximum value from your spend data. SpendSphere is ready to deliver insights as soon as you are.

Scope 3 Emissions Reporting

SpendSphere.ai empowers organizations to measure and manage their scope 3 (supply chain) carbon emissions efficiently using the Spend-based Carbon Calculation method.

By connecting seamlessly with external data sources, SpendSphere provides verified and approved conversion factors for your spend classifications. This allows organizations to estimate the carbon footprint of their supply chain accurately, directly linked to supplier spend.

With SpendSphere, you can quickly identify high-impact categories and departments, enabling you to take targeted, effective actions to reduce your scope 3 emissions and drive meaningful progress toward sustainability goals.

Incredibly Fast

One of the most common complaints we hear about typical in-house or pre-built visualization tools like Power BI or Tableau is their sluggish performance. These tools often slow down because they weren’t specifically designed for spend analysis, and their background processes are overloaded with unnecessary operations. When they aren’t fully optimized, everything grinds to a halt, leaving you waiting for results.

We built SpendSphere.ai from the ground up with a single purpose: to analyze spend data quickly and efficiently. Every element in the background is fine-tuned for speed, ensuring you get answers in record time. In fact, SpendSphere gets faster the more you use it. It remembers your previous searches, as well as the searches of others, to deliver results even quicker. The result? You get answers to your specific questions faster than you can ask them, allowing you to make informed decisions without the frustrating delays.

Cleans "Fre(e) Text"

Humans have an interesting way of recording data, which doesn’t always make sense when it comes to consistency. From inconsistent spelling to creative abbreviations and varied terminology for the same thing, this leads to what we call “Chihuahua Syndrome”—where the same item is recorded in so many different ways that your data looks chaotic, like seeing the word “chihuahua” spelled five different ways.

SpendSphere.ai tackles this head-on with powerful data cleaning features. Our system automatically identifies, standardizes, and cleans messy free-text entries, transforming incomplete or inconsistent data into structured, usable information. This means you can trust your reports, make better decisions, and save time otherwise spent manually fixing data errors.

Drill down to PO / Invoice Details

A common frustration with typical dashboard solutions is that, while they provide high-level insights, they often fall short when it comes to accessing the detailed information—such as Purchase Orders (POs) or invoices—behind the numbers. This creates a major trust issue, as users can’t easily validate whether the classifications are correct or check if the underlying data is accurate, complete, or free from duplicates.

Having worked in procurement functions and advised many teams, we understand that trust is essential to driving adoption and confidence in any spend analytics tool. That’s why SpendSphere.ai was designed to give you easy access to the detailed data whenever you need it. With SpendSphere, you can quickly drill down to PO and invoice line-item data just by typing in the PO, invoice, or contract number. No more navigating complex ERP systems just to find a single document.

You can even ask for specific details, like “Show the last 10 POs to Backwoods or Tradelink,” and SpendSphere will instantly provide the information. This seamless access to detailed data ensures that your classifications are accurate, builds trust across the organization, and makes your spend data both actionable and transparent.
