CEO: RUJUL ZAPARDE FOUNDED: 2020

Zip defined the category of intake and procurement orchestration. The platform functions as the front door for all business spend. It manages the lifecycle of a purchase from request to payment within one interface. In 2026, the company launched 50 specialised AI agents to automate tasks including contract reviews, tariff assessments and regulatory checks. The system has assisted customers in saving over US $ 6bn since its inception. It routes requests across finance, IT and legal departments using automated workflows. This approach increases employee adoption of procurement policies by providing a consumer-grade experience. The software identifies security risks and duplicate vendor requests at the point of intake, and connects with existing accounting systems to ensure data consistency. Enterprises use the platform to reduce cycle times and reclaim millions of days of productivity. It provides visibility into every step of the approval process.
