Turn a one-line request into structured requirements, checked against what you already own. Business requests for new software or AI tools usually arrive as a single vague line — “we need something for X.” Archways turns that line into structured requirements and checks it against your existing stack before anyone starts evaluating vendors. ​Use it when:
  • A team submits a request for new software or an AI tool
  • Procurement needs requests structured consistently before they’re actioned
  • You want to catch a request that could already be met by something you own, before it becomes a new purchase
​What’s included:
  • Conversational intake — Archways AI takes a vague one-line request and asks the questions needed to turn it into structured requirements
  • Automatic overlap check — every incoming request is checked against your existing software stack, so a request that duplicates something already owned is caught at intake, not after an evaluation
  • A direct path into Software Evaluations — once requirements are structured, the request can move straight into scoring and shortlisting if a new tool is genuinely needed

​Quick answers

What happens when someone submits a vague software request? Arch AI turns it into structured requirements through a guided conversation, then checks those requirements against the organisation’s existing stack before anyone starts evaluating new vendors. Does intake catch duplicate requests? Yes — every request is checked against what the organisation already owns at the point of intake, so overlap is caught before a new evaluation or purchase starts, not after.
