Background
The platform, in brief.
Kompass is a global B2B business directory founded in 1997, providing company listings and contact data across many countries, along with lead-generation and business-intelligence tools such as EasyBusiness and ByPath.
The gap
Where it falls short for modern procurement.
Kompass is a directory and contact-data business, built for prospecting and lead lists. Listings are largely self-submitted, there is no independent AI vetting of certifications, financial health, ESG, or sanctions status, and there is no mechanism for describing a sourcing need in plain language and receiving a ranked, defensible shortlist.
