CUSTOMER PORTAL
Aravo was named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Third-Party Risk Management Tools for Assurance Leaders, the Gartner annual evaluation of TPRM software vendors on Ability to Execute and Completeness of Vision.
Gartner positions vendors on Ability to Execute, how well they deliver today, and Completeness of Vision, how clearly they see where the market is going.
Aravo’s take on the placement is that it validates a platform built to handle risk across the full vendor lifecycle, not a patchwork of separate tools.

Vendor networks have grown larger and harder to track, and the risk that comes with them rarely stays contained to procurement or sourcing teams.
Verizon’s 2026 Data Breach Investigations Report put third-party involvement in breaches at 48%. That’s up 60% from last year. Add DORA, the CSDDD, and the EU AI Act on top of that, and the reporting burden on risk teams keeps climbing.
Annual questionnaires and point-in-time snapshots were built for a slower risk environment. Gaps open between assessments, and boards end up waiting on decisions exactly when they’re asking for speed.
Aravo’s Intelligence First™ Platform combines third-party risk data, workflows, and native AI in one system, built for large, complex enterprises managing risk at scale. It covers onboarding, due diligence, and ongoing monitoring, and more than 5 million third-party users and 5,000 corporate users across over 170 countries currently run on it.
The Evaluate Engine gives risk teams direct control over scoring. Teams build custom scoring models tied to internal policy, adjust risk tiers, and compare risk across domains over time. Trends and outliers surface as they happen, not months later.
Aravo AI is built into the workflow itself rather than bolted on as a separate tool. It runs on Aravo’s structured system of record, drawing on governed data built up over years of enterprise use. Teams can review, challenge, or override any AI output, and see the data and sources behind every recommendation.
The Aravo Experience Framework is a human-centered experience layer for the Intelligence First™ Platform that makes third-party risk management easier, faster, and more intuitive for everyone involved, from risk professionals to business stakeholders to third parties. It personalizes interactions by role and context, and it embeds Aravo AI directly into daily workflows while keeping humans in the loop.
Aravo AI runs inside TPRM workflows in two modes: automated agents that execute tasks, and interactive agents that answer questions on demand.
Workflow agents handle time-consuming tasks inside existing processes. Survey Agents review documents and prefill assessments, citing sources and confidence scores as they go. Remediation Agents suggest corrective actions. Decision Agents guide, and in some cases, automate the call.
Interactive agents answer questions in the moment. The Navigation Agent, Risk Expert Agent, and Data Query Agent all run inside AI Canvas, a workspace where users query live program data without switching tools. Teams that want more control can build or adjust their own agents in AI Studio, including choosing which large language models power them.
The Aravo Experience Framework carries this further by embedding Aravo AI into the daily workflows of every stakeholder, not just the risk team. Recommendations, automation, and decision support surface at the point of work, personalized by role and context, so procurement, business owners, and third parties get the same grounded intelligence without switching tools.
That’s what makes TPRM one of the stronger use cases for AI right now. The work is data-heavy and time-sensitive, and it’s tied directly to business outcomes. None of that matters if the AI isn’t grounded in governed data.
Risk oversight doesn’t reset between assessment cycles anymore. Scattered manual checks give way to one connected view. For TPRM leaders, that supports:
TPRM isn’t a back-office function anymore. It’s tangled up with governance, compliance, and the broader enterprise risk picture, and that only strengthens the case for one connected platform.
