In 2022, Omnea emerged from a clear insight: procurement processes in modern enterprises were fundamentally broken. The founders, Ben Freeman and Ben Allen - former executives at cybersecurity company Tessian - experienced firsthand how fragmented workflows, endless email chains, and manual approvals created bottlenecks that slowed businesses down. They saw intelligent, motivated people trapped in spreadsheets and side channels, struggling to get basic purchases approved while compliance risks piled up unnoticed. So they built Omnea, an AI-native platform designed from the ground up to transform how companies control spend and manage third-party risk.
Today, Omnea streamlines the entire source-to-pay lifecycle in one unified platform. Employees make requests conversationally through intelligent intake, approvals route automatically based on configurable workflows, and suppliers update their own information through a portal they actually want to use. The platform embeds governance and risk management into every step while delivering unprecedented visibility into how money flows through the organization. Trusted by global enterprises like Spotify, MongoDB, Albertsons, TeamViewer, and Hargreaves Lansdown, Omnea has grown rapidly - raising $75M from world-class investors including Khosla Ventures, Insight Partners, and Accel - and now serves customers who see an average of $747K in savings with 93.7% of spend under control.
