Nnamu
Autonomous procurement-negotiation agent that runs multi-stage supplier negotiation events (by Beroe).
Nnamu is an autonomous procurement-negotiation solution that pairs game theory with AI to run supplier sourcing events. Founded in Germany as nnamu GmbH, it was acquired by Beroe Inc., a global procurement decision-intelligence company, in March 2025, and now operates as part of Beroe's platform, with the original nnamu team continuing under a new German entity.
The product recommends the best negotiation strategy, simulates supplier behavior, and runs autonomous, multi-stage events that blend auctions and structured negotiation. The approach is transparent and auditable, designed to be a format suppliers accept and a process buyers can trust, and it spans tail, tactical, and strategic spend through a strategy advisor and a hands-off negotiation bot.
Nnamu's negotiation agent is built on a 20-year dataset of more than 2,000 negotiations run by over 100 game-theory and economics specialists, with cumulative value exceeding 400 billion euros. Beroe has been folding its own proprietary market intelligence into the agent and integrating it into the Beroe Live.ai platform. Reported outcomes include average total-value savings of up to 15 percent at roughly twice the speed of manual events, with customers such as BT Sourced, JLR, and Deutsche Bahn.
Nnamu was founded by co-CEOs Christian Paul and Martin Walter, and following the acquisition it sits within Beroe, a procurement-intelligence company founded in 2006 and led by founder and CEO Vel Dhinagaravel. Access is through Beroe on a sales-led basis.

Use cases & customers
In practice
Your team only has bandwidth to negotiate the biggest contracts, so tail spend goes unmanaged. Nnamu runs autonomous, multi-stage negotiation events across tail, tactical, and strategic spend.
You're walking into a supplier negotiation without a strategy. Nnamu recommends the approach and simulates how the supplier is likely to behave, drawing on a dataset of more than 2,000 past negotiations.
Suppliers balk at opaque reverse auctions. Nnamu's process is built to be transparent and auditable, a format suppliers accept and buyers can trust, now available through Beroe's platform.

3.5 / 14 capabilities · 25%
| Integrations & Tool CallingNnamu runs negotiation events inside the Beroe platform with no broad named integrations into external sourcing or enterprise resource planning systems documented, so not documented as first class. | Unable to verify |
|---|---|
| Workflow OrchestrationNnamu autonomously runs multi stage supplier events that blend auctions and negotiation from setup through execution using game theory, a genuine end to end autonomous workflow. | Full |
| Knowledge Grounding & RAGNnamu grounds its strategy in a two decade dataset of supplier negotiations and Beroe market intelligence, data grounded decisioning without citation tracked retrieval, so partial. | Partial |
| Human Oversight & GuardrailsNnamu lets procurement teams configure and govern each negotiation event before the agent runs it within set parameters, bounded autonomy under human setup rather than a runtime enforcement engine, so partial. | Partial |
| Security, Identity & GovernanceNnamu documents no security certifications, single sign on, or access control matrix for its negotiation platform, so not documented as first class. | Unable to verify |
| Observability & AuditabilityNnamu runs every negotiation as a transparent, auditable, and structured event with a full record of the process for buyers and suppliers, comprehensive auditability of the agent driven negotiation, so full. | Full |
| Memory & State PersistenceNnamu draws on historical negotiation data for training but exposes no dedicated persistent cross session agent memory product, so not documented as first class. | Unable to verify |
| Deployment & Data ResidencyNnamu is delivered through the hosted Beroe cloud platform with no self host or data residency option documented, so not documented as first class. | Unable to verify |
| Prebuilt Agents, Templates & PacksNnamu provides a single negotiation agent across tail, tactical, and strategic spend rather than a marketplace of cloneable prebuilt agents, so not documented as first class. | Unable to verify |
| Triggers & Channel CoverageNnamu negotiation events are set up by users inside the platform with no broad multichannel or event driven trigger coverage documented, so not documented as first class. | Unable to verify |
| Model Flexibility & RoutingNnamu runs proprietary game theory agents with no user facing model routing, selection, or bring your own key option documented, so not documented as first class. | Unable to verify |
| APIs, SDKs & MCP ExtensibilityNnamu documents no public developer application programming interface, software development kit, or Model Context Protocol server, so not documented as first class. | Unable to verify |
| Testing, Debugging & OptimizationNnamu simulates supplier behavior to recommend and test the best negotiation strategy before an event runs, an optimization loop over expected outcomes, so partial. | Partial |
| Browser & Computer UseNnamu executes structured negotiation logic with no general browser or computer use capability, so not documented as first class. | Unable to verify |
