Ramp named a Leader in 2025 IDC MarketScape for AI-enabled travel and expense applications for Small Business and Midmarket

Ramp has been named a Leader in two IDC 2025 MarketScape reports: IDC MarketScape: Worldwide AI-Enabled Travel and Expense Applications for Midmarket 2025 Vendor Assessment (doc #US53006525, August 2025) and IDC MarketScape: Worldwide AI-Enabled Travel and Expense Applications for Small Business 2025 Vendor Assessment (doc #US53006625, August 2025).

We believe this recognition validates what our more than 40,000 customers already know: Ramp is redefining T&E for growing businesses. We’ve built a unified system that combines intelligent card controls, modern expense software, and AI-powered automation, giving growing businesses the sophisticated capabilities they need without the complexity they don’t.

The IDC MarketScape for AI-Enabled Travel and Expense Applications for Midmarket recognized Ramp for the following strengths:

  • Card-centric spend control: The tight integration between Ramp's corporate cards and the expense management software enables proactive control over spending at the point of transaction, with customizable rules and limits. This helps prevent out-of-policy spending before it occurs.
  • AI-powered insights: Ramp leverages artificial intelligence to analyze spending patterns and provide actionable recommendations for cost optimization and vendor management. This proactive approach can bring significant savings for businesses.
  • Streamlined user experience: The platform is designed with a modern and intuitive interface, making it easy for employees to manage their spending and for finance teams to gain clear visibility and control. This can drive user adoption and efficiency.

The Ramp difference

Ramp automates the entire expense workflow, from purchase to reconciliation, for companies of all sizes across industries. Our platform automatically collects and matches receipts via vendor integrations, text message, and the mobile app. Our AI agents build on these capabilities by handling routine approvals, answering policy questions, and flagging duplicate spend. Where legacy expense tools reactively catch errors, Ramp helps companies avoid them in the first place.

Ramp offers all of this with no steep implementation costs or months-long rollouts. Just intelligent spend management that scales with the business.
