Autonomous negotiation agents are particularly at home in the fields of artificial intelligence, digital marketplaces and automation. They are computer programmes that can conduct price and contract negotiations independently - without any human intervention. This means that these agents use predefined goals, rules and strategies to act in the interests of their user and react flexibly to changes in the market.
Imagine, for example, a digital marketplace for raw materials. Here, companies buy materials for production. An autonomous negotiation agent could automatically obtain quotes for a company, compare them, negotiate with multiple suppliers simultaneously and present the best results to the responsible person – around the clock, even while you sleep.
The big advantage: Autonomous negotiation agents save time, reduce costs, and can quickly filter out the best offers even in complex markets. This gives you a competitive advantage because you negotiate faster and often even better than a human could alone. These intelligent systems offer real added value, particularly in purchasing, trading, and auctions.
