Know where you have room to negotiate and where you don't

Market-tested intelligence down to the SKU level

Every negotiation recommendation is backed by $23B+ in spend intelligence from live negotiations led by verticalized domain experts, covering pricing, contract terms, packaging trends, and competitive dynamics across 14,000+ suppliers.

Go it alone or hand it off entirely

Use Tropic's playbooks and agents to run negotiations yourself, tap a domain expert for advice on a specific deal, or fully outsource to our team. You choose how much you want to do yourself.

How it Works

Identify where you have negotiation room across your full tech stack

The Renewal Agent and Proposal Agent triage your full portfolio by savings potential and negotiation difficulty, so your team always knows which SaaS and AI contracts are worth fighting for and which to let go.
