Demos

End-to-end cycle in 6 minutes

Tail Sourcing Product Team•Live product walkthrough•December 10, 2025•Video • 6 min

This is the demo we run for every prospect. Six minutes, one real request, no slides. We follow a marketing team's request for event signage from the moment it enters the platform to the moment the supplier is paid.

Step 1 — Requisition (0:00–1:10)

The marketing manager opens the request form, picks 'Event signage' from the pre-approved catalog, fills three fields, and submits. Total time: 38 seconds.

Step 2 — Routing & approval (1:10–2:30)

The platform checks the request against the cost center budget, applies the approval matrix (under $5k = single approval), and routes to the cost center owner. Approval happens in Slack with one click.

Step 3 — Sourcing (2:30–4:00)

The platform identifies three qualified suppliers from the existing roster, launches a mini-RFx, collects bids in 24 hours, and surfaces the recommended award with reasoning.

Step 4 — PO, delivery & payment (4:00–6:00)

PO is auto-issued. Goods receipt is logged from a phone. Three-way match runs automatically. Payment is scheduled through the connected ERP. The marketing manager never has to chase finance — and finance never has to chase marketing.

Key Takeaways
