GRC Watch and Verified partner with Hybridity to help customers win more business with AI
GRC Watch, part of Verified, is entering a strategic partnership with Swedish AI company Hybridity. Together, they will develop AI-driven features that simplify and automate due diligence and procurement processes – giving customers a competitive edge. The first solutions will launch as early as Q2 2025.
A natural next step in GRC Watch’s evolution
GRC Watch is a leading SaaS platform for due diligence, KYC, and supplier assessments inEurope. Through the partnership with Hybridity, the platform will gain new features that increase automation and reduce manual work for customers. The goal is to help users act faster in procurement processes – and win more business.
“We see this as a natural step in our mission to make due diligence and procurement smarter, faster, and more scalable. Hybridity’s AI expertise and financial sector background make them an ideal partner for us,” says Linda Hellström, Founder of GRC Watch.
“We’re thrilled to have earned this trust and look forward to building solutions that streamline compliance and procurement in a secure and efficient way,” says Robert Lyngman, CCO and Co-founder at Hybridity.
AI and governance: New requirements in supplier assessments
The initiative also includes the introduction of AI-related questions into GRC Watch’s supplier assessments, in collaboration with Hybridity. The aim is to help customers better evaluate how suppliers use AI – with a particular focus on transparency, security, and compliance with the EU’s upcoming AI regulations.
“This partnership creates entirely new opportunities for automated processes that give our customers a clear competitive advantage. At the same time, we’re strengthening our focus on AI governance,” says Mika Packalén, Head of Due Diligence Products at Verified.
First release: Automated responses in procurement – launching Q2 2025
Development is already underway, with the first features scheduled to launch in Q2 2025. First out is an AI service that automatically suggests and fills in responses for common forms – such as during RFP processes and recurring customer reviews. GRC Watch and Hybridity will invite selected customers to test the new features later this spring.
