On Thursday morning, Alex Yakubovich and Stan Garber took Center Stage to deliver one of the event’s most talked-about sessions: From Grind to Greatness: The AI-Native Advantage.

They began by reflecting on Levelpath’s journey from its founding roots with Scout RFP to its present as a leading innovator in AI-native procurement. The message was clear: procurement teams no longer need to be burdened by manual processes and disconnected tools. For every procurement challenge you face, we have Agents for that.

The session walked attendees through a vision of procurement where every major function including sourcing, stakeholder intake, contract management, and risk evaluation can be supported by AI Agents for procurement purpose-built for that workflow.

Alex & Stan demonstrated how this approach is already delivering results:

10X capacity for sourcing: Procurement teams are managing more complex sourcing events with the same headcount.
5 minute contract review: Legal teams are cutting review cycles from thirty-six hours down to just five minutes.
3000+ hours saved: Healthcare organizations are reclaiming thousands of hours through automated contract data analysis.

These examples showed that AI-native is not just a technology shift but a redefinition of procurement’s role inside the business. Alex closed the session by reminding the audience that procurement’s future is not about tools but about being empowered to focus on strategic work.

The crowd’s response reflected what the Levelpath team had seen all week. Procurement leaders are ready to move beyond the grind, and they now have Levelpath’s AI Agents to help them do it.

Delightful Procurement. We have Agents for that.
