Around 60% less time per evaluation. Your team gets months back; the business gets answers in days.
Get ahead of every renewal
Customers see up to 5–15% off renewal cost when they go in with the market mapped, the alternatives priced, and the usage data ready before auto-renew.
Spot the tools you're paying for twice

Every software decision, in three steps.

Bring contracts, spend and usage from the systems and spreadsheets you already use. Or set your requirements and run a fresh evaluation, no import needed.
Score
Archways scores any vendor against your real requirements. 175,000+ vendors continuously profiled for capability, pricing, security and financial signals.
Decide
Every evaluation, renewal or consolidation lands with the alternatives and the capability fit on one page. Ready for the vendor conversation. Ready for audit.
04 DATA SOURCES
Where the data comes from.
175,000+ vendors, continuously profiled for capability, pricing, security and financial health. Built on inputs you can trace and a scoring approach you can audit.
Inputs you can trace
Public vendor docs, APIs, release notes and security disclosures. Licensed financial and risk datasets. Direct vendor submissions. Your own contracts, owners and usage — kept private to your workspace.
A capability framework, not a search box
Every vendor mapped to the same capability model and scored against your requirements, not a generic template. Overlap and dependencies spotted across your stack.
Continuously refreshed
Vendor capabilities tracked across releases, M&A, pricing changes and security incidents. Every decision feeds the next — your library compounds.
“Archways has taken away a huge amount of time and resourcing we used to need for market engagement. It gives us a quick, simple way to understand what’s out there, based on our requirements and company size, rather than defaulting to the vendors we already know.”
Billy Simson, Procurement Manager, Apollo Partners
Apollo Partners stopped defaulting to the vendors they already knew.
With Archways embedded in the renewal cycle, IT, procurement and the business get the same picture — before the contract conversation starts.
Since embedding Archways, Apollo has:
- Cut evaluation effort by 60%
- Built market coverage into every shortlist, sized to Apollo’s business
- Started every renewal months ahead, not weeks behind.
