Frequently asked questions
What does Hazel AI do?
Hazel is a procurement platform for public agencies. It covers requisition management, scope review, solicitation building, vendor directories, evaluations, and spend visibility, so an agency can run a procurement from solicitation to award in one system. The vendor says agencies manage $50B+ in annual procurement on the platform and have saved $100M+.
Which agencies does Hazel target?
Local, state, and federal buyers. The site names cities, counties, schools, and special districts under local, plus large states, large cities, and federal agencies. Hazel is built only in the United States, by U.S.-based personnel.
Is Hazel secure and compliant?
The vendor states Hazel is SOC 2 Type II certified and aligned to NIST 800-53 (Low baseline). Infrastructure runs in the United States. Customer data is logically separated per agency and, per the vendor, is never used to train models shared with other customers; Hazel also states zero data retention agreements with all third-party vendors.
What does Hazel cost?
Hazel does not publish pricing. Plans are quote-based and scoped by agency and module, so buyers should request a demo. The platform is sold as modules, and agencies can start with one module and expand across the lifecycle.
How long does it take to get value?
Hazel does not publish an implementation timeline. Because it is sold module by module, agencies can start with a single workflow. A case study describes a large state cutting contract drafting from 40 hours to 15 minutes using 20+ templates. Budget time for scoping and security review before rollout.
