Take a self-guided tour of the platform.

See why Vertice is trusted by top procurement leaders.

Sifted, the FT-backed leading media brand for the European startup community, today recognised Vertice as 2025’s #1 fastest growing UK & Ireland startup, crowning a stellar first quarter of 2025 - starting with our $50m Series C raise.

The leaderboard is littered with some of the most notable names in the UK and Ireland startup scene - including leaders in innovation and product development, many of whom already dominate their respective industries - and we are proud to be included amongst them.

We founded Vertice because we saw that procurement and finance leaders still faced the same historic challenges that they always had: cost control, visibility and making better decisions faster.

While others addressed these challenges one by one - procurement workflows, contract negotiation, SaaS spend optimization - we worked hard and fast to create a spend optimization platform that delivers all of these and more within a single, unified platform.

One that works solely in the interests of the customer, not the vendors. One that’s built on negotiation playbooks and software usage understanding across $3.4bn of SaaS, cloud and direct spend, plus a uniquely global benchmarking dataset of 16,000+ software vendors. And we bring this data into their daily decision-making through AI-supported insights, intelligently delivered directly within the workflow itself.

In less than three years, hundreds of companies worldwide - including several in the Fortune 500 - have entrusted us with billions of spend and solving their toughest challenges.

In return we have delivered savings of as much as 30%, drastically reduced their maverick spend and cut their procurement cycle times by 50%. And as a result, we have grown more than 13x in two years.

What next?

We continue to invest in the whole business. We intend to continue to grow very quickly, opening more offices across the globe, tripling our engineering department and expanding our team of procurement experts.

All this requires nothing short of the best possible people. So if you are talented, determined and want to join one of the fastest growing technology companies globally, we'd love to hear from you.

Of course, this has only been possible with the backing of our partners, supporters, investors and our valued customers. And thanks too to Sifted for this incredible recognition.

But most of all, I want to acknowledge the dedication, professionalism and drive of our employees for helping us become the fastest growing startup in the UK & Ireland.
