Scoutbee is an AI-powered procurement marketplace and supplier network connecting buyers and suppliers. Buyers can use deep search, invite suppliers into candidate pools, and prequalify them with RFI questions and data requests. Its sourcing workflow also supports project postings and anonymous supplier messaging. Suppliers can find high-fit leads, receive match alerts, automate personalized LinkedIn or email outreach, and seek preferred visibility in buyer search results. Scoutbee says it serves direct and indirect goods and services across categories and geographies. The current product is Scoutbee with AI Global Supplier Search; Scoutbee Discovery has been discontinued. A free supplier profile supports discovery and buyer connections, and a free trial provides a limited version of the services for evaluation. Paid access varies by package, with pricing offered on the platform. Scoutbee Premium is billed annually and lists lead alerts, automated outreach, preferred visibility, and access to buyer applications and brand networks. Scoutbee states that buyer input and AI output are not used to train its AI models, though AI functions may have usage caps. Its listed platforms are API and web.
