Vendor at a glance

What is Beroe? A procurement market-intelligence provider combining software, data and analyst expertise. This assessment covers Beroe Live.ai and DataHub, with the announced replacement Beroe abi treated separately. WOP classifies the primary job as market intelligence and the role as intelligence. Beroe MAX, bespoke research and negotiation services have different scopes. Live.ai product.

What does the current platform cover? Live.ai describes category monitoring, supplier discovery and risk, and inflation analysis tailored to a customer's spend. It also describes an Abi advisor in Teams and Slack. That existing advisor should not be confused with the newly announced platform rebuild. Current modules.

What scale is reported? DataHub's current page lists 30 million-plus market data points, 400-plus unique data series and 30-plus API endpoints. These are vendor-stated figures, not independently verified measures of accuracy, freshness or the categories included in a particular licence. DataHub scope and figures.

Is the new Beroe abi available? Its 23 September 2026 announcement sets early-adopter access for mid-November 2026, with phased upgrades for existing Live.ai customers from January 2027. As of this assessment, those dates remain future plans. A demonstration or sign-in link does not establish general availability. Announcement and availability.

How does data reach other systems? DataHub describes APIs, exports, connectors and MCP access for AI assistants. Accessing market intelligence is different from authorising a supplier award or placing an order. Integration routes.
