Hi ProductHunt, LV here! I’m the co-founder and CEO of Taloflow. **Why** We built Taloflow to solve technology and software vendor selection–CRM, ERP, HRIS, Internal Developer Portals, Object Storage, API Gateways, etc. Having been deeply involved in the tech scene, I saw firsthand how a wrong or slow decision could make or break any project or company. The endless options, opaque pricing, ambiguous features, and subjective and biased reviews make evaluating vendors challenging. “Wait, but isn’t this solved?” you may ask. Nope. Gartner (if you can afford the subscription), G2, and the like offer mostly generic insights. You’re on your own to determine exactly the solution that’s most relevant to you. **What** Since our last launch, we’ve done extensive research into the needs of enterprise customers. This new platform is designed to be collaborative from the ground up, delivers clear, data-driven recommendations tailored to specific use cases, and comes with all the CYA you could imagine. We’ve also leaned in on AI to allow our analysts to assess, curate, and refresh vendor data much faster and in more categories for our customers. **Key Features** 1. Use case questionnaire to pinpoint your exact needs. 2. AI and expert-assessed feature ratings for solutions. 3. Real-time feedback based on your changing inputs. 4. Over 100,000 AI and expert-curated data points. 5. Real-time collaboration (Notion or Google Doc-like UX) and audit logs. 6. Tailored reports based on detailed user inputs and needs. Taloflow helps its customers succeed by bringing transparency and precision to a process mired in confusion and subjectivity. We aim to change how businesses select technology by helping them skip the frustrating parts–like requirements gathering, vendor demos, prioritizing, and scoring–and presenting the best unbiased insights. I invite you to join us on this exciting adventure… To get 50% off the Essentials plan, use PH50OFF at checkout. This promotion expires on June 12th.

@jasonkimbc Thank you Jason!

Congrats on the launch! The product is looking like a great replacement to the Confluence forms I've had to use for procurement in past roles.

@debussyman Thank you, Ryan. That's exactly it - the homegrown processes are a little ridiculous and kludgey, and you still have to gather your own insights.

congrats on the launch, the collaborative notebooks sound like a powerful addition. how do you ensure the AI-generated recommendations stay current with the rapidly evolving tech landscape?
Louis-Victor Jadavji
@mashy so we're staying on top of changelogs, news, etc., and have a direct line to most vendors who provide us with updates. Everything is also expert-verified, so the analysts we work with also have a good grasp of the ecosystems as they evolve.
Alexander Harmsen
Looks cool. Can I get my own category of investing APIs added?
Louis-Victor Jadavji
@alexander_harmsen Hi Alex, we can certainly discuss this. We think it's a burgeoning category that also requires lots of diligence before choosing a solution.

Congrats on launch of Taloflow 2.0...

@toshit_garg thank you Toshit

Congrats on the launch! Really clean, informative reports. I'm curious how these can be customized? For example, if a client already has a major investment in an infra provider, etc.
Louis-Victor Jadavji
@pigpen Hi Jon, thank you! If you're in strategic advisory and consulting, we have a special service catered for that and I would love to talk more. To answer your question: Let's say your client is evaluating monitoring solutions and has a heavy investment in AWS; the questionnaire and tables will prioritize features and dimensions that increase the likelihood that it integrates well with AWS native products. There are ways to also tilt the scale in favor of AWS native solutions and make that transparent to the user. These reports are super customizable, and if there's a data point you want that we don't have (rare, but it happens), our network of analysts can turn that around in just a few days and get it added to your report.

@legendarylvj sounds like a great feature. In a previous life, that capability would have been really valuable, as I was always spending lots of time with vendor evaluation in an environment with many technical and political constraints. I imagine others would find this valuable as well.
Louis-Victor Jadavji
@pigpen Thank you, Jon - I appreciate the insight. We're onto something :)

Congrats on your launch, LV! I was able to build a real-time business intelligence stack with your tool a few months back, and I'm not even a data engineer. The notebook is incredible. To anyone having doubts about their tech stack, I suggest trying Taloflow out.

@joannazhg Thank you, Joanna. It's great to hear that you've had such a positive experience.
