The Transparency Economy Was Incomplete – Until Now

Fueled by data and crowdsourcing, the “transparency economy” has arrived. Imagine you’re a business leader who wants to impress your client. It’s possible to find the tastiest restaurant to dine them or the best wine to gift them simply by reading reviews. You’ll have high confidence that the location or goods you chose will be of high quality because there’s so much information available in advance.

Yet what about when you need to select the right consultant for a bet-the-business digital transformation? Or the right lawyer for an important commercial negotiation?

There’s actually very little information publicly available and it’s nearly impossible to tell good from bad based on available opinions. You’re left to swim through the stories your lawyers and consultants tell you – in person, through their marketing, and through their branding – about how great they are. At best, you might be able to get a recommendation…

" Hence brings global talent and cutting-edge tech to deliver a first of its kind relationship intelligence platform - so that business leaders can confidently use data to make decisions about their providers and accelerate business outcomes.
Karin Knox, former Head of Philanthropy at Palantir
" A single company can impact a much larger ecosystem through selecting providers who share its same values of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Hence sheds light on a company's knowledge supply chain, ultimately amplifying company values through the entire value chain."
Lisa Shu, Executive Director Newton Venture Program
" Hence is the first software platform I've seen that brings in an objective perspective on the value being created by the consultant for its clients, by project and in the aggregate.
Juan Pujadas, Former Vice-Chair PWC Global Advisory Services
" The impact of selecting the wrong firm - or allowing providers to get away with poor performance - can be huge, which is why the information and intelligence Hence can offer is so vital and beneficial for clients.
Peter Smith, Author of Bad Buying
"Professional services firms have an outsized impact relative to spend on their clients’ performance, culture and reputation. Yet, most companies don’t evaluate their service providers with the same rigour as goods suppliers. Hence ensures that companies get maximum value from what are often their most critical but under-managed suppliers."
Rohitesh Dhawan, CEO International Council on Mining and Metals
"I’ve built, bought and sold businesses large and small and worked with consultants and lawyers all over the world. Despite all my experience, I still mostly need to rely on referrals and reputation to find and select new providers. I invested in Hence because I want to be able to make these decisions with much more data at my disposal and I think Hence has the team to make that happen”
Daglar Cizmeci, Entrepreneur and Investor
“The legal industry - similar to many professional services - has always suffered from a lack of data about performance and value, creating the conditions for an imperfect marketplace and decisions based on relationships held at the firm level. Hence is using technology to shine a light on how individual lawyers perform which, in turn, will enable better value-based decisions to be made by their clients”
Al Giles, former Chief Revenue Officer at Axiom
“ROI from consultants varies too widely. I've experience superstar boutique teams while large, well known companies have left me adrift with junior staff repeating back the ideas I shared with them - and everything in between. Hence has a pioneering solution to this pervasive and costly problem built in an innovative and actionable way”
Michael Brunt, Former GM of The Times & Publisher/COO of The Economist
"Data-driven insights are becoming the gold standard for decision making at every level of every industry. We invested in Hence because it's time to bring that discipline to the $2 trillion market for professional services. Hence has the right team to scale their technology and drive deeper insights into provider relationships around the world"
Kevin Kamer, Founder of Dubble Capital Ventures
