askLio: generative AI for requisitioners and procurement teams

Too many free text requests?

Confused requestors?

High efforts with requests?

Increased requirements?

askLio supports procurement departments with AI-supported guided buying. The virtual purchasing assistant answers questions to the purchasing department and reduces free-text inquiries by guiding requestors to the right procurement channel. Quotes that have already been obtained can simply be uploaded as a PDF - the AI does the rest. Valid free-text requests for e.g. services are automated by performing compliance checks, assigning product groups and optionally obtaining quotes - without the purchasing department having to take action.

For strategically relevant tasks such as product group strategies or offer comparisons, askLio simplifies the work of buyers with the AI copilot.
