VendorWatch is an AI agent that monitors your supplier base — OTIF performance, news signals, regulatory events, macro disruptions — and delivers a finished brief to your inbox every Sunday night.
Most AU mid-market retailers find out about supplier issues through stockouts, complaints, or urgent calls — not proactive intelligence.
Your OTIF numbers exist — but translating them into ranked supplier risk every week requires analyst time most teams don't have.
A key supplier's CFO departed Friday. There was a TGA recall Saturday. You find out when a category manager reads about it over coffee.
Port congestion, AUD/CNY moves, freight index shifts — they all affect your cost base, but they're scattered across different sources.
Enterprise tools cost $50K+/year and are built for teams with dedicated analysts. Mid-market retailers have been making do without.
VendorWatch is an agentic AI system — four specialised sub-agents run in sequence, coordinated by an orchestrator, with no human in the loop.
Ingests your weekly OTIF CSV, normalises the data, computes 4-week deltas, and ranks suppliers by risk score.
For each risk supplier, scans the last 7 days for news, regulatory filings, recalls, executive departures, and financial signals. Vertical-aware.
Monitors AU port congestion, freight index, AUD currency moves, and regulatory agency announcements relevant to your supply chain.
Synthesises everything into a structured HTML email — TL;DR, OTIF table, material signals, macro context, and suggested actions.
A structured, actionable brief — not a raw data dump. Built for supply chain leaders who need to act, not analyse.

VendorWatch was built by someone who's lived the problem — running supplier performance reviews manually, finding out about issues late, and wishing there was a tool that just handled the weekly intelligence work automatically. This is that tool, built for the AU market with AU regulatory agencies, AU spelling, and AU supply chain context baked in.
