TruSpend® from CIO InCight delivers on every stage

AI & ML to Cleanse, Classify & Categorize Vendor Spend

Automated Monthly Refresh, SaaS Delivery

Limitations of existing financial systems leave CxOs in the dark when it comes to insights into their IT vendor spend.

Large enterprises spend billions on vendors - yet seeing important details of that vendor spend has been almost impossible to obtain at a human scale.
 Our co-founder lived this PAIN while trying to shave 5-7% off the annual $800M spend with Information Technology (IT) vendors at a Fortune 500 financial services firm.

CXO Nexus was born to deliver real-time, unbiased, AI-driven visibility into true Vendor Spend, simply, quickly, and across all financial systems, to empower better C suite decision making.

The Team

The CXO Nexus team comes together with extensive market knowledge and thought leadership to create a long-term solution that radically improves enterprise leadership's ability to better invest in the future.
