Overview
Interos is an AI-powered supply chain risk intelligence platform that maps extended, multi-tier supplier networks and continuously monitors them for disruption risk. Built by Interos, Inc. (founded 2005, headquartered in Arlington, Virginia), it targets Fortune 1000 enterprises and U.S. federal government and defense agencies managing complex, global supply chains.
The platform is organized around a Knowledge Graph that the vendor describes as covering 250 million-plus companies and billions of business relationships, built using machine learning and natural language processing, combined with a proprietary i-Score composite risk rating spanning six domains: Finance, Cyber, ESG, Restrictions, Geopolitical and Catastrophic risk. Purpose-built modules extend the core mapping and scoring engine: i-tracing traces a specific product down to its components and raw materials, i-tariffs models trade-policy and tariff exposure, i-reputation monitors supplier reputational risk (powered by Dataminr), and Resilience Watchtower provides an enterprise-wide risk dashboard.
Interos does not publicly document connectors to major ERP systems; it lists marketplace integrations with Coupa (procurement) and ServiceNow (workflow) and is typically deployed as a standalone SaaS application accessed via its own web interface. The company has raised close to $290 million in venture funding to date, including a $40 million strategic growth round from Blue Owl Capital in October 2024, and it reported roughly 100 enterprise and government clients as of late 2024, including the U.S. Department of Defense, NASA, the U.S. Navy and L3Harris.
