// About Outrider

The best technology should reach
the people who defend the nation.

Government procurement is broken. The agencies protecting our nation can't find the commercial technology they need, and the companies building it can't navigate the procurement maze. Outrider fixes both sides.

The Problem

$700B in annual federal spending.
Most of it never reaches the best tech.

Government buyers spend months searching for solutions through outdated portals and word-of-mouth referrals. Meanwhile, thousands of capable technology companies never get discovered because they don't know how to navigate the system.

The result? Agencies settle for incumbent vendors. Innovative companies give up. And the people who depend on government services get worse outcomes.

Our Approach

AI-powered matching.
Both sides of the table.

Outrider uses AI to understand what government agencies need and what technology companies build — then matches them in moments, not months.

We combine intelligence reports, live event management, and a curated marketplace to create a new procurement channel that's faster, fairer, and more effective than anything that exists today.
