About Whispor

Procurement sets the goals. Too little of the work to reach them gets done.

Whispor exists to close that gap. Tell it what you want to achieve, and it finds the opportunities, builds the plan, does the work with your approval, and learns from every outcome.

Why we exist

Procurement has systems for spend, contracts and suppliers. The negotiating is still done by hand.

Spend, contracts and suppliers all have systems. Turning a savings target into the sourcing events, negotiations and calls that reach it still depends on who is free, what they know and what they remember.

Strategic negotiations depend on who is in the room. Thousands of smaller ones never happen, because nobody has the hours. Whispor handles both, from the same plan.

Leadership and advisory

Built with procurement experience at the table.

Vinod Sharma

Founder

Vinod Sharma is the founder of Whispor. His work has centered on procurement intelligence and applying AI to complex procurement decisions.

He founded Whispor around a gap he saw repeatedly: procurement organizations had invested heavily in systems for spend, sourcing, contracts and suppliers, while the actual negotiation remained dependent on individual preparation, experience and capacity.

His focus is to take procurement from commercial goal to commercial outcome, combining decision intelligence, human judgment and autonomous execution rather than treating negotiation as another workflow to automate.

Bill Dempsey

Procurement advisor

Bill Dempsey serves as a procurement advisor to Whispor, bringing the operating perspective of a senior procurement leader to the platform's product and market direction.

His advisory role helps keep Whispor grounded in how procurement organizations actually evaluate opportunities, manage supplier relationships, govern negotiations and adopt new technology.

That practitioner perspective is particularly valuable as Whispor develops the boundary between person-led strategic negotiation and autonomous execution at scale.

What we believe

Four principles behind the product.

  1. Show the evidence.Every forecast links to the data behind it, and every signal reports what was said and done, never how a person feels.
  2. People own strategic judgment.Relationships, ambiguity and hard trade-offs still need experienced procurement professionals.
  3. Autonomy needs limits.Targets, limits, approval and escalation stay with procurement.
  4. Every outcome teaches the next.Positions, concessions and results become what Whispor remembers, not notes in one person's inbox.
