Levelpath named as a 2026 Sample Vendor for Generative AI for Procurement

SAN FRANCISCO: Levelpath, the AI procurement platform built to deliver serious impact, today announced its inclusion in the 2026 Gartner® Hype Cycle™ for Procurement and Sourcing Solutions. Levelpath was recognized as a Sample Vendor for Generative AI for Procurement, a category we believe represents the future of how procurement teams will work.

Procurement leaders use the Gartner Hype Cycle to understand the maturity, adoption, and benefit of emerging sourcing and procurement technologies as they decide where to invest. It explores how generative AI is being applied across the procurement process.

In our opinion, the report points to a future where AI Agents take on more of the routine work, while people focus on judgment and supplier relationships. Levelpath is the new model for AI procurement.

“We believe this recognition reflects how far AI procurement has come, and the progress we Levelpath has made bringing Generative AI to every step of the process,” said Stan Garber, Co-Founder and President of Levelpath. “Procurement works best when AI Agents are enabled to do real work. We built Levelpath so teams can automate the entire process end to end while continuing to keep people in the loop for key decisions.”

Levelpath’s recognition in prior Gartner reports

This inclusion adds to prior analyst recognition. Levelpath was recognized in the 2025 Gartner® Innovation Insight: Procurement Orchestration Platforms, and was named a Representative Vendor in the 2026 Gartner® Market Guide for Sourcing Applications. Levelpath believes the recognition across these reports reflects the momentum behind its approach to AI procurement.

Generative AI across the procurement process

Levelpath brings Generative AI to every part of procurement, from intake and sourcing to contracting and payment. AI Agents perform the work with full context, executing end to end with human oversight in key moments. Built for AI from day one and powered by the industry’s first supplier graph, Levelpath gives every stakeholder a procurement system of record and delivers serious value within weeks. Procurement, finance, IT, and legal gain complete clarity and control: early visibility into purchases, answers about any supplier, and easier risk identification, all from the same intelligent platform.

Agentic workflows that work for you

Levelpath’s agentic workflows let teams design a custom procurement process in plain language and put AI Agents to work inside it. Using Generative AI, teams shape a process that mirrors how their organization already runs.

• Map the process. Map even the most complicated workflows, with flows, branches, and reverse loops that mirror internal approval and governance structures.
• Govern AI ownership. Decide which steps run automatically and where a human stays in the loop, so every action is indexed, traceable, and audit ready.
• Build agents and workflows together. Build custom AI Agents directly into the workflow, so teams design the process and the intelligence together without switching tools.

Get instant answers with AI Agents

Levelpath turns procurement reporting into a conversation. AI Agents surface answers about purchases, suppliers, contracts, and spend in plain language, with no report building required.

• Query every corner of procurement data. Use plain language to gather instant information, like how much is committed to a specific supplier or how many contracts are up for renewal this quarter.
• Generate instant charts. Automatically pull charts based on any question, then pin them to a dashboard or open them to dive deeper into the data.
• Export raw data. Download the underlying data behind any chart for deeper analysis outside the platform.

Procurement teams are already putting Levelpath’s AI to work:

• GATX demonstrates how procurement teams can evaluate multiple bids in seconds, pull answers from lengthy contracts on demand, and give every stakeholder full traceability on every intake request.
• Instructure showcases how configurable workflows and AI assistance help teams move away from static reports and spreadsheets toward a dynamic, conversational view of spend and approvals tailored to their governance model.
• MX Holding illustrates how extending Levelpath into existing finance and operational systems lets CPOs and CFOs orchestrate end-to-end, agentic workflows that meet their organization where it is today, while creating a fast path to modern procurement.
