Buy Smart¶
← Prompt Showcase · value chain: procure-to-pay
The purchasing lifecycle done right — from need to supplier payment.
How this works¶
This area moves work through these stages:
need → request → source → order → receive → match → pay
You don't run the stages by hand. You just ask — in plain language — and the system routes you to the right tool. There are two kinds:
- Skills — a single capability ("write me social posts", "score this lead").
- Playbooks — a guided, multi-step workflow that chains skills into a whole outcome.
Reach for a skill for one task; reach for a playbook for a whole outcome.
Playbooks — guided workflows for this area¶
| Playbook | When you'd run it |
|---|---|
| Procure-to-Pay cycle | You want the full buy-to-pay process run cleanly |
| New supplier onboarding | You're bringing on a new supplier |
| Supplier review and contract renewal | A supplier contract is up for review or renewal |
→ Browse every workflow in PLAYBOOKS.

How to trigger — just say it¶
No commands to memorize. Speak in plain language and the system picks the tool:
- "Draft a purchase requisition for this, ready for approval." → purchase-requisition
- "Find suppliers for this and compare them." → strategic-sourcing
- "Review how this supplier has been performing." → supplier-feedback
- "Bring this new supplier on board properly." → the New supplier onboarding playbook
Skill or playbook?
🟢 Start with single asks (one skill). 🔵 When you want a whole outcome, run a playbook — it sequences many skills for you.
