The Zip AI Lab started with a handful of customer conversations, sharing specific workflow problems they wanted to solve with AI. Today we have hundreds of custom agents in production, built alongside our customers and running inside their actual procurement workflows. Our R&D team sits with procurement teams to map the decisions, define the guardrails, and build an agent purpose-built for the process. Then we stay involved to fine-tune as their needs evolve. What we're seeing is a compounding effect. Every agent we co-build deepens our understanding of procurement decision patterns. The platform gets smarter as agents gain more context and capability. The feedback loop self-corrects and expands what's possible. We believe this collaboration between customer and product intelligence is the gold standard for how AI should work in the enterprise. It’s been amazing to see this come to life. I’m incredibly proud of the team behind it and deeply grateful for the trust our customers and partners continue to place in us. We're excited to share a look into how the lab operates. If you're thinking about where AI fits into your procurement stack, give it a watch. Learn more at: www.zip.ai

The best AI ideas at Zip almost always start with a conversation with a customer. That's why our R&D team in the Zip AI Lab partners directly with customers to incubate, test, and ship custom agents built for their actual procurement workflows. And now hundreds of custom agents later, we’re more committed than ever to the idea that the more we build with customers, the faster and better our agents become across the entire platform. This is the first episode of 'The Next Build,' a new monthly series where our engineering, product, and design teams share what we're building and why. Give it a watch. And if you’ve got your own bottleneck you want turned into an agent, we want to hear about it. You can learn more at: www.zip.ai

What an amazing week in NOLA for Americas Procurement Congress 2026! A MUCH TOO QUICK RECAP: Zip sponsored the AI Forum; our own Danielle McQuiston led a roundtable with the amazing Christy Finizza; while Peder Gustafson hit the keynote stage with Tigran Avakian from Gap and Niko Nurmi from Procurement Leaders—then surprising the audience with a mid-stage wardrobe change into a Gap tee(!) That's called **COMMITMENT TO THE BIT** Thanks to Procurement Leaders | A World 50 Group Community for putting on an unforgettable event!

March is International Women's Month, and we're spotlighting visionary women leaders who are reshaping global procurement. Nadine W., Head of Procurement at StackAdapt, inherited a process with *zero visibility*. As she tells the story, requests were disappearing into a black holes, stakeholders had to chase updates over Slack, and there was no way to possibly plan strategically. She changed that. Under Nadine's leadership, StackAdapt slashed cycle times in half from 60 days to 30, and delivered 15% savings across tens of millions in spend. Hear Nadine tell the story in her own words: https://lnkd.in/gDtgjZuC

We had a great time at the Life Sciences Accounting & Reporting Congress in Philly, thank you Informa for having us as a sponsor! We had great convos with biotech and pharma finance teams about how Zip builds the audit trail from day one, turning complex procurement data into clean, reportable insights without the manual lift. Thanks to everyone who stopped by—if we connected this week, we look forward to keeping the conversation going!
