A GuardLink is one free page that takes every vendor pitch.

It lists what your company needs to buy, by when and the must-haves, and vendors apply there instead of your inbox.

Vendors see what you need and by when. Your budget and contact details stay hidden until you say yes.

Free for buyers, always.

Free to apply. Vendors that apply can join as sellers.
Example: Acme writes a need in its GuardLink, and the public page shows it to vendors while the budget and contact details stay hidden, with made-up companies.

Your GuardLink goes wherever vendors already pitch you.

Add a Pitch us button to your website, and your GuardLink to your email signature, auto-reply and LinkedIn profile.

Forward any pitch that still reaches your inbox, and it gets the same check. We read nothing you haven't sent or connected.

Every pitch is checked against your needs before it reaches you.

  • VaultlineMatched to another company
Example: a SOC 2 audit firm's pitch checked against Acme's need on five criteria, beside this week's list with the fits first and polite replies sent to the rest, with made-up companies.

Each department runs its own GuardLink under one company account.

Each team's owner lists what that team needs and hears only from the vendors that fit, at the team's own address.

We suggest what companies like yours usually buy next, and vendors see nothing until the owner confirms it.

Example: Acme's four departments, each with its own GuardLink address and owner, and finance copying its link to add its first need, with made-up companies.

Every vendor that applies agrees to the exchange rules first.

Each one agrees to use what it sees only to answer your need, to keep it confidential and to respect a no.

After a no, a vendor can't approach you or your colleagues about that need for 6 months.

Held after a no

Not in your weekly list, and no reply was sent. We look into every pitch held after a no.

Example: after Acme's marketing lead says no to an outbound agency, the agency's next pitch is held with no reply, as the exchange rules require, with made-up companies.

Vendors that apply can join as sellers, and buy here too.

Each one gets a Passport drafted from its website and checked against the needs of every company on the exchange.A pitch that misses you can reach a company that needs it, and the vendor's own GuardLink starts the loop again.

Is Northgate Audit buying anything right now?

What do you need to buy?

HR software for 40 staff by March

One line is enough. We'll turn it into your GuardLink, the page where vendors pitch you.

Example: an audit firm that pitched Acme's GuardLink joins as a seller with a Passport drafted from its website, then writes down what it needs to buy, with made-up companies.

What buyers and vendors ask about a GuardLink

  • Is a GuardLink one place for every vendor pitch?

    Yes, one page where every vendor pitch goes. A GuardLink also checks each pitch against your needs and answers the rest for you.

  • How does a vendor apply through a GuardLink?

    It agrees to the exchange rules and sends its pitch against one of your needs. Applying is free, and a vendor that fits can join as a seller with a Passport.

  • Do I need to be buying something to have a GuardLink?

    No. With no dated need, every pitch is still answered, and the new ones worth a look reach you monthly. When a need comes up, add it with a date, and the vendors that fit reach you weekly.

  • How many GuardLinks can one company have?

    One for each department. Each has its own address, needs and owner, all free and all under one company account.

Give vendors one link, and hear only from the ones that fit.

Free for good. Buyers never pay.

Your company can sell here too, with a Passport drafted from your website.
