In this month's highlights we're focusing on three things: connecting your Vertice data to the AI assistants you already use, bringing expert procurement support into the platform, and a reminder to take control of your AI spend.
We would love to hear any feedback or suggestions at [email protected].
New features
We released these new features this week.
Vertice MCP
Connect Vertice to the AI assistants your team already uses, including Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini. Ask questions about your Vertice data and get answers straight from the platform, whether you want to understand current spend, upcoming renewals or vendor performance.
See The Vertice AI MCP Connector for more information.
Expert Engage
Get procurement expertise on demand. Choose from a range of expert-led services like: benchmarking, negotiations, vendor recommendations, RFPs, peer group analysis and more — all run by Vertice's specialists.

Updates and improvements
We also made some updates to improve the Vertice platform.
Contract uploads
We have improved the contract upload workflow. You can now upload multiple contract documents at once instead of adding them one by one.
Vertice AI extracts the vendor and document type to speed up your review. You can then review and confirm details before finalizing the contract, avoiding incomplete records and draft clutter.
Add a contract by uploading one or more PDF versions of an order form, invoice, or contract. Vertice AI will read the document and pre-fill the details for you. You can then review, validate, and edit all extracted information before creating the record.
See Add your vendor contracts to get started.
Reminders
AI Cost Optimization
Take control of your AI spend. See exactly what you're spending across every provider and model in one place, track usage and commitments, and act on recommendations that cut costs before they spiral.
