About
Built by a practitioner.
Not a media company.
ProcureGuy Intelligence monitors procurement sources, scores every article for relevance, and surfaces what actually matters to the day job. Updated daily. No vendor deals. No algorithm optimised for engagement.
Why this exists
Procurement professionals operate at the intersection of supply chain volatility, regulatory change, vendor market consolidation, and internal cost pressure — all simultaneously. Staying current across those dimensions means reading a lot, and most of what is available is either too generic, too vendor-sponsored, or too slow.
The ProcureGuy brand was built around practitioner-level content that does not talk down to its audience. This intelligence product is the same philosophy applied to signal aggregation: stop the scrolling, surface the signal, tell you why it matters for your specific type of work.
It is not trying to be a news publication. It is trying to be the thing you check before a supplier negotiation, a category review, or a contract renewal.
Editorial independence
ProcureGuy Intelligence does not accept sponsored content, native advertising, or pay-to-rank arrangements. A source being a vendor does not disqualify it, but vendor content is explicitly labelled (Vendor) and scored separately. It cannot organically displace independent editorial signals in your feed.
The AI relevance scores are generated without knowledge of source identity. A press release from a major vendor will score lower than independent industry analysis covering the same topic, because the scoring model evaluates information density and procurement actionability — not brand authority.
Source policy
All sources are public, RSS-accessible, and manually approved before activation. We do not extract from paywalled content, draw from social media, or include sources without a clear editorial mandate. Sources are tier-ranked:
Independent procurement editorial and research. CIPS publications, Spend Matters, Procurement Magazine, specialist trade press.
Enterprise, management, and business media with strong procurement coverage. HBR, MIT Sloan, VentureBeat (for technology signals).
Vendor blogs and thought leadership content. Defaults off — enabled selectively and manually. Always labelled as Vendor in the feed.
How signals are processed
Ingest
The pipeline pulls from RSS feeds and AI web search daily. Articles are deduplicated by URL hash. New items are queued for scoring.
Score
GPT-4o-mini evaluates each article against four procurement signal categories: market conditions, regulatory/compliance, operational, and commercial. Score: 0–100. ≥80 publishes directly. 60–79 publishes with a review flag. 40–59 is held for admin approval. <40 is discarded.
Summarize
Signals scoring ≥60 are passed to GPT-4o for summarization. The prompt is calibrated for procurement context — not generic news summarization. Pro subscribers receive an additional insight paragraph connecting the signal to procurement decision-making.
Deliver
Signals appear in the feed ranked by relevance score and recency. Topic and vendor filters let you narrow to your category. Search covers full 90-day history on Pro.
