The vendor conversations worth your time, on your terms.
You name what you are working on, and meet only the vendors who fit it. DoGood connects senior technology and security leaders with vetted vendors solving the exact problems on your roadmap. One conversation at a time, on your schedule, only the meetings you choose to take.
CIOs, CISOs, CTOs, and the VPs and Directors of infrastructure, engineering, data, and security under them.
You're evaluating tools whether you like it or not.
AI governance. Cloud migration. Identity. Data security. The work doesn't stop, and neither do the cold pitches, the demos that go nowhere, the LinkedIn messages from reps who never read your profile. Finding the right vendor shouldn't cost you a week of noise.
Every match starts with what you tell us.
- 1
Tell us your priorities.
Share the initiatives you're working on this quarter through a short intake. That's how we match you to what's actually relevant.
- 2
Review the request.
When a vendor fits, you get the full picture: who they are, what they do, and why you were matched. You answer their qualifying questions and a brief intent survey, so the conversation starts on the same page.
- 3
Accept or decline.
You decide on every request. Take the ones worth your time, skip the rest, no penalty. Complete a meeting and earn points.
You see everything before you commit.

Conversations that match your roadmap.
You name the initiatives you are working on. A vendor reaches you only when they fit one, and only after you say yes.
Vendors you'd never find otherwise.
Tools outside the usual reseller and SI channels, surfaced only when they fit your roadmap.
A read on the market, even when you're not buying.
See what your peers are evaluating and benchmark your own stack.
Points for completing meetings.
Redeem them your way: charitable donations, gift cards, cash, and more.
Senior technology and security leaders, director level and up, at organizations that take technology seriously. Every member is vetted before they join, which is exactly why vendors take these meetings seriously too. Niche and regulated environments fit too, from healthcare and higher-ed to specialized manufacturing and defense.
You opt in. You choose what you share and who you meet. We never sell your data or hand your inbox to a vendor. Decline anything that isn't a fit, no questions asked.
“You’re looking at vendors on your terms rather than necessarily their terms.”
“If I look at 10 vendors and I can find two, that’s a pretty good hit rate for me.”

VP of IT Americas, Samsonite

132 leaders and sellers have reviewed DoGood publicly. Members rate it 4.9 out of 5. Each review below is published under the reviewer’s own name and title.
“DoGood connected us with a vendor for our IT self-service portal project to build AI agents that automate ticket routing from our ITSM and collaboration tools. Their platform surfaced relevant vendors quickly, letting us move from discovery to a working demo in a few weeks.”
Alexander MatveevIT Director, NetCracker Technology “They took the time to deeply understand our specific risk profile and operational hurdles before connecting with the appropriate vendor. It feels less like a vendor-customer relationship and more like a true security partnership.”
Michael VigneauDirector of Cybersecurity, Allegro Microsystems “The platform provides a good variety of vendors that could be relevant and weren’t on the radar. I’ve learned about new potential workflows for analytics as a result of this and been able to directly apply and bring in some of the vendors into the ecosystem.”
Stanislav RosenbergGlobal Director of Advanced Analytics, Mars
“DoGood has classified vendors by needs. They proactively provide connections with vendors who are of genuine interest to us. Many times they are complete solution providers whom we may not have considered unless DoGood was in the picture.”
Ash Duttachowdhury, CISO, First Orion “It’s helped inform our roadmap in terms of things we may not have been thinking about, identifying new vendors and solutions that have pivoted our approach to higher ROI initiatives.”
Travis Gibson, Chief Technology Officer, Big Brothers Big Sisters of America “The platform allows me to clearly articulate my needs, and DoGood has been able to provide strong matches, with effective conversations as a result.”
Patrick Weis, Director, I&O, Delta Dental of California
What is DoGood, exactly?
A private network where senior technology and security leaders take a small number of relevant, curated vendor conversations, on their own terms, and earn rewards for their time. It's a way to see the market and discover vendors you'd never find through the usual channels, without being cold-pitched.
Is this optional? Do I have to take meetings?
Completely optional. You see who a vendor is before anything happens and choose which meetings to take. Decline anything that isn't relevant. There's no obligation and no pressure.
Is this legitimate? Who's actually on it?
It's a closed, vetted network. Both the members and the vendors are verified, not open to anyone. DoGood has been operating for over a decade.
Is my information sold or shared?
No. Your information is never sold. Only a vendor you agree to meet sees your details, and only after you opt in.
Will the vendors actually be relevant to me?
You're matched on your role, company, industry, and the initiatives you care about, and you decide what's a fit. Even in a niche or regulated environment, you evaluate only what's relevant and pass on the rest. No meeting is forced.
How am I compensated?
You earn points for completing a meeting, redeemable for charitable donations, gift cards, and more. If your organization restricts personal compensation, the charitable-donation path is there. The comp is a thank-you for your time. The point is relevant, useful conversations.
What's the time commitment?
Minimal. A short meeting only when you choose to take one. There is no standing obligation, quota, or ongoing commitment.
What happens after a meeting? Am I on the hook for anything?
Nothing. Meetings are exploratory. Both you and the vendor give quick feedback afterward, and there's no commitment to buy or continue. If it isn't a fit, that's a perfectly normal outcome.
Why do this instead of ignoring vendor outreach?
Because you set the terms. You name the initiatives you care about, see who a vendor is and what they do before anything is scheduled, and take only the meetings you choose. Members use it to stay current, benchmark against peers, and find non-obvious vendors, even when they aren't actively buying.
