TPRM teams
are drowning.

Spreadsheets. Questionnaires. Alert fatigue. The average risk team manages hundreds of vendors with a fraction of the headcount they need — and the regulatory load is only getting heavier.

The Agency is the team you can't afford to hire. Not a chatbot. Not an automation. A workforce of specialised AI agents, each one purpose-built for a part of the third-party risk lifecycle.

Five leads. Twenty-seven specialists. One platform.

Each lead agent commands a team of sub-agents, each one trained for a single job. Together, they cover the full third-party risk lifecycle.

Three layers. One product.

The Agency runs on top of the Platform, and both feed and draw from the Trust Layer — the network of monitored companies and vendor-shared posture pages that make every assessment, every score and every report sharper.

Gartner
Cool
Vendor
2024
Recognised by Gartner as a Cool Vendor in third-party risk management.
Selected for our agentic approach to TPRM and the depth of our outside-in intelligence.

We replaced two analysts' worth of questionnaire chasing with The Agency in eight weeks. The risk team is finally doing risk work.

The brief format is the difference. We stopped getting lists of findings and started getting decisions. That's the bit that was missing.

DORA reporting that used to take a quarter now takes a morning. VANCE produced our first board pack in under an hour.
