“We spent two weeks onboarding one supplier. W-9, insurance, signed agreement. Wrong format, re-upload, follow-up. By the time they were set up, the project they were hired for was already behind.
Director of Procurement · Foodservice distributor
“A supplier changed their packaging six months ago. We found out when a customer complained. The updated spec was in someone’s inbox. It never made it to the system.
VP of Supply Chain · Retail operator
“A compliance deadline was coming and my boss asked how many of our suppliers were ready. I spent a full day building a spreadsheet from email threads. The answer was ‘I’m not sure.’ And I had the data.
Compliance Manager · Medical device distributor
“Three suppliers sent price increase requests last month. Each one was a forwarded email chain. Someone approved one we shouldn’t have, and we have no record of why.
Category Manager · Mid-market retailer
Sound familiar?
Every week we talk to procurement, compliance, and supply chain teams who describe the same problems: different industry, same story. Manual processes that worked at 20 suppliers don’t work at 200.
Three building blocks.
Every supplier process.
Almost everything you do with suppliers is a mix of three: a workflow, the tasks it sends out, and the conversation around them. Combine them and the process runs itself, with full visibility and a complete record.
A library of processes. Or build your own.
Start from a prebuilt workflow (onboarding, document collection, a certificate renewal, a price-change request) or build your own by dragging steps onto the canvas: forms, document collection, approvals, e-signatures, AI validation, branching. The same builder models any process between you and your suppliers, run one-to-one or as a campaign across thousands.
- Prebuilt templates for common processes, or build your own with no code
- The same workflow runs one-to-one or as a campaign
- Drag-and-drop builder with full version history
Send it to one supplier, or ten thousand.
Pick the workflow, pick who gets it, and send. Clover spawns a task for every supplier and tracks them as a group. On their side it's a guided wizard, not a portal to learn. They step through and submit, and AI checks the work at the point of entry.
- Send to one supplier or your whole base in a click
- Each supplier gets a guided task: no portal, no training
- AI validation at submission, before it hits your queue
The conversation lives inside the work
Most supplier back-and-forth happens over email, disconnected from the task it's about and impossible to find six months later. In Clover, questions get asked and answered right on the task they belong to. Your team replies in real time, the whole exchange is captured with the work, and connecting Gmail or Outlook pulls supplier email into the same place.
- Task-scoped conversations: every question tied to the exact work
- Real-time and team-aware: nothing trapped in one person's inbox
- Email pulled into context: connect Gmail or Outlook
It runs itself. And nothing is lost.
Tasks go out, suppliers respond, AI checks the work, and exceptions route to the right person. You watch completion climb across your whole base in real time, and every step, approval, and decision is on the record, one click away.
- Real-time completion across your entire supplier base
- Exceptions surface to the right person automatically
- Every decision recorded and instantly answerable

Frequently asked questions
Clover is a platform for managing the recurring business processes that run between your organization and your suppliers: onboarding, document collection, compliance campaigns, price changes, product data additions and updates, chargebacks, and more. Instead of email threads and spreadsheets, each process runs as a structured workflow with validation, accountability, and a complete decision trail. Setup takes weeks, not months.
Clover is built for mid-market organizations that manage large supplier bases with manual processes: teams that have outgrown email and spreadsheets but don't need a $750K enterprise implementation. Common buyers include foodservice distributors, retailers, medical device manufacturers, and university procurement offices. If you're managing supplier relationships through inbox triage and shared drives, Clover is built for how you actually work.
Portals collect information. Clover executes, validates, and records. The supplier-facing portal is a real component: suppliers complete guided tasks, upload documents validated by AI, and communicate with your team in context. But behind that portal is a configurable workflow engine, an immutable audit trail, campaign management, and an AI layer that reasons about your data. The portal is the front door. The platform is the building.
Typical deployments range from $10K to $100K per year depending on your supplier count and which processes you automate. That's a fraction of what enterprise procurement suites charge, and a fraction of what you're spending in labor on the manual processes Clover replaces. We're transparent about pricing because your time matters more than a discovery call about budget.
Most organizations are live in weeks, not months. Clover is cloud-based with no on-premise infrastructure and no heavy integration required. You configure your workflows, invite your suppliers, and they start completing tasks through a guided interface that requires no training. Ongoing configuration is done through the platform, not through an IT backlog.
Most tools store content: the current state of your supplier data. Clover stores context: the full history of every decision, change, approval, and exception in an immutable, hash-linked audit trail. That means you can answer not just 'what is this supplier's status' but 'who approved the exception, what was the justification, and has this pattern happened before.' That context is what makes Clover's data ready for AI, audits, and real decision-making.
No. ERPs manage internal operations: inventory, purchasing, accounting. Procurement suites handle sourcing and spend. Clover operates in the space between your organization and your suppliers: the collaboration layer where onboarding, compliance, document collection, and ongoing process management actually happen. Clover integrates with your existing systems through APIs and webhooks, handling the processes that live in email today.
No. Suppliers interact with Clover for free. They receive clear, task-based requests and complete them through a guided response wizard: no training required, no portal to learn. Suppliers working with multiple Clover buyers manage all their relationships from one place. The easier it is for suppliers to respond, the faster your processes complete.
