VendorGuard AI — Vendor Risk Intelligence

VendorGuard AI is a third-party vendor risk intelligence agent that monitors vendors 24/7 using live web data — detecting threats before they make the news. Every company works with dozens of external vendors — payment processors, cloud providers, HR software, logistics partners. If any vendor gets hacked, faces regulatory action, or shows financial distress — your company is also at risk. Most companies find out weeks later, sometimes never. VendorGuard solves this using Bright Data's infrastructure: - Bright Data SERP API runs real-time Google searches for news signals, regulatory actions (SEC, FTC), early warning signals like layoffs and CEO departures - Bright Data Browser API opens real cloud browsers to scrape Wikipedia for verified primary source data and vendor websites for live incident notices - All signals are analyzed by Groq's Llama 3.3 70B AI, generating a Risk Score (0–100) with full intelligence reports Key features: — Real-time risk scoring dashboard (Green/Yellow/Red) — Risk timeline showing score history — Instant email alerts on risk jumps — One-click PDF report export — Bulk CSV import for enterprise vendor lists — Early warning signal detection — 5 data sources per scan The vendor risk management market is worth $13.5B today, growing to $26.4B by 2031. Existing solutions cost $16,500–$200,000/year. VendorGuard democratizes this globally. Bright Data is not optional — it is the foundation that makes VendorGuard possible.
