What Vendr does
From Vendr's and Vertice's own websites.
Now part of Vertice. Vertice announced on 1 June 2026 that it had acquired Vendr. Vendr's pricing page now leads to Vertice's.
Prices and negotiation. Vendr offers "pricing benchmarks and negotiation playbooks from 130,000+ enterprise deals", and its agent runs "the entire supplier negotiation for you."
Usage from sign-ins. Vertice says to "Connect your SSO in minutes to see exactly who is, and isn't, using each application", with login frequency and activity trends.
AI costs by provider. Vertice's AI cost page offers to "Analyze AI spend by provider, model, department, and date range." It does not describe spend per person or what the work is.
What it costs
Vertice prices. Vertice lists Intake-to-Procure starting from $30,000, SaaS Purchasing from $40,000 and Cloud Cost Optimization from $20,000. Vendr's price benchmarks are free to look up.

A walk through the team page: who uses which AI tool, what it is costing, and what the work is.
What you get
The team page, flags and client rules, and the five switches.
The team page
Who is using AI this week, what the work is, people using AI each week, tool share by AI tool, and allowance warnings for anyone near or over.
Flags and client rules
What went in across the team: sales figures, strategy, client documents, passwords and keys. Each chat that broke a client rule, or came close, is listed with the person and the tool.
Five switches
Count usage and spend, AI analysis, keep the chats, let admins and team leaders read chats, keep voice typing. Every opening of a chat is recorded, and everyone sees the switches in plain words. Chats in the AI's own temporary or incognito mode are never collected.
Use them together
Vendr gets the price right. Typort gets the seat count right. Before a renewal, look at who actually used ChatGPT or Claude in Typort, and what for. Then take that number into the negotiation.
They do not overlap. Vendr works on the contract. Typort reads the AI chat pages people use, so it can tell you what the seats are being used for and what went in.
The team view runs on Typort's servers. It is free for a limited time and will move to Typort Pro later.
FAQ
Is Typort a replacement for Vendr?
No. Vendr and Vertice help you buy software at the right price. Typort shows how the AI seats are used once you have them: usage and estimated spend per person, what the work is, flags and client rules.
Who owns Vendr?
Vertice. It announced the acquisition on 1 June 2026, and Vendr's pricing page now leads to Vertice's.
Does Typort show unused AI seats?
Yes, for the AI tools it sees. The team page lists seats barely or never used, with names, and how many people used AI this week and in the last 30 days.
Which AI tools does Typort see?
ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Grok in the browser, through the Typort browser extension. Microsoft 365 Copilot capture is built and comes in the next extension update. It reads what is on the page, so it works on Business and Team seats and needs no API keys from the AI vendors.
Are the dollar figures exact?
No, they are estimates from the tokens in each chat at the AI vendor's API list price. A chat page cannot show system prompts, hidden reasoning, attachments or tool calls, so the figures are a floor. They are there to compare people and tools, not to replace the invoice.
What does the team view cost?
The team view runs on Typort's servers. It is free for a limited time and will move to Typort Pro later.
