Every bid sealed.
Every decision on the record.

Source runs your RFP from package to award and makes the unfair move impossible: pricing stays sealed until the deadline, a defective package cannot publish, and every decision lands on a record you can hand to anyone. A first-time buyer runs a process a veteran would sign.

What it is

Sealed, defensible sourcing — from the package to the award.

The unfair move isn’t discouraged here; it’s impossible. There is no per-vendor deadline, no early reveal and no side channel to favor anyone through.

  • Sealed pricing

    Each pricing submission is envelope-encrypted with its own data key, wrapped by a key the database never holds. The buyer sees that a bid exists — never its contents — until the reveal.

  • Vendor portal on its own host

    Vendors work on a separate host with its own sessions; a vendor identity can never become a buyer user.

    Live today

  • Blind, attested evaluation

    Evaluators attest no conflict of interest before scoring, see only their own scores until lock, and outliers are flagged at lock time.

Everyone on the panel signs before they score

Each evaluator attests no conflict of interest and scores blind. An award goes out only with a second approver who did not author it.

What you get

An answer on the record, at every step of the buy.

From the first draft to the award, every answer rests on evidence the system wrote as it happened — never on someone’s memory of it.

Reveal — a scheduled job opens every envelope at once, after the deadline plus grace. Live today

The record
Source wrotepricing.revealed ×4file.read

No one could have. Each pricing submission was envelope-encrypted with its own data key, wrapped by a key the database never holds.1 The reveal job opened all four at 17:00:00,2 and every read since is logged behind a 60-second link.3

How it works

AI drafts. Code validates. A human approves.

Prep Studio interviews you about the buy and drafts the package; deterministic checks hold it to the rules; nothing reaches a vendor without your approval. Prep Studio · In progress

  1. Prep Studio

    AI drafts

    • Interviews you about the buy
    • Drafts scope, requirements matrix, criteria, pricing schedule
    • Reads its own draft as a hostile bidder would
  2. Publish gate

    Code validates

    • Criteria weights sum to exactly 100
    • Every scored criterion maps to a requirement
    • Response window meets the minimum
  3. Your team

    A human approves

    • One artifact at a time
    • Approval binds to a content hash — edits reopen it
    • Nothing reaches a vendor without both

NeverAI never scores, ranks, or recommends an award. That is a structural rule, not a setting.

Trust

Pricing stays sealed until the deadline, for every vendor at once. Every read becomes evidence through a link that expires in 60 s; every event is hash-chained into an append-only audit; each vendor works in isolation on its own host — so the record you hand over is the record that happened.

How to use

Nothing for vendors to install.

Buyers work inside the Pactwise dashboard. Vendors arrive by invitation, on a host of their own. Teams that automate call the same contract.

  • iBuyer console
