Both platforms use AI to make EU procurement smarter. The difference is underneath: Duke connects 300+ sources and 61M+ procedures through a graph database that resolves entities across portals. Depth you can measure.
choose duke if you need the broadest EU procurement dataset with deep national coverage in Germany (14 sources), France (18 sources), and across 25+ countries, plus cross-source entity resolution and historical depth.
choose hermix if you want an AI-native pipeline management tool focused on EU tenders and prefer a clean, modern interface for managing opportunities through bid stages with a growing dataset.

Duke integrates 300+ procurement portals compared to roughly 50 in Hermix. That difference is not just volume. It means Duke captures below-threshold contracts from 14 German state portals, 18 French national sources, Dutch TenderNed, Norwegian Doffin, Finnish Hilma, and Baltic platforms. Opportunities that only appear on these sub-national portals are invisible on TED-centric platforms.
Duke's graph database automatically merges buyer and supplier records that appear across multiple portals. When a German Bundesland publishes a contract on both eVergabe and TED, Duke resolves them into a single entity with complete history. This eliminates the fragmentation that makes tender analysis unreliable on platforms working from disconnected data sources.
With 61M+ procedures accumulated over years of ingestion, Duke provides the historical depth needed for meaningful trend analysis, supplier benchmarking, and market sizing. Hermix, as a newer platform, is still building its historical dataset. For procurement teams making strategic decisions, the difference in analytical foundation matters.
Hermix was built with AI at its core from day one. Their AI matching and analysis features are central to the product experience, not bolted on afterward. For teams that want AI-driven opportunity scoring and automated relevance filtering as a primary workflow, Hermix has a coherent product vision around that capability.
Hermix has invested in a polished, modern interface that makes procurement data accessible to non-technical users. Their pipeline management features and dashboard views are designed for bid teams who need to track opportunities through stages, making it a practical tool for daily workflow management.
Hermix has a clear market focus on EU procurement with a roadmap explicitly oriented toward European coverage expansion. For teams that want a growing EU-focused platform and are comfortable with a newer dataset, Hermix offers a straightforward product promise without the complexity of global coverage.
If below-threshold contracts in Germany, France, or other European markets represent a significant part of your pipeline, Duke's 300+ source integrations capture opportunities that TED-centric platforms miss. The difference is especially stark in markets like Germany where 14 state portals publish locally.
If your primary need is AI-driven opportunity matching and a clean pipeline management workflow for EU tenders, and you are comfortable working with a newer, growing dataset, Hermix has built an intuitive product around that use case.
For teams performing market sizing, competitive landscape analysis, or procurement trend research across European markets, Duke's 61M+ historical procedures and cross-source graph provide the analytical depth that newer datasets cannot yet match.
Both platforms serve the EU procurement market with modern technology. Duke differentiates through data breadth: 300+ sources, 61M+ procedures, and deep national integrations. Hermix focuses on AI-powered analysis and pipeline management with a growing but smaller source base. Duke's graph database enables cross-source entity resolution that connects fragmented records across portals.
Duke has significantly broader European coverage with 300+ portals including 14 German sources, 18 French sources, and dedicated connections across the Netherlands, Norway, Finland, the Baltics, and the UK. Hermix covers EU procurement primarily through TED and a growing number of national portals, but has fewer direct integrations with sub-national and regional sources.
Hermix has some national portal coverage but does not match Duke's below-threshold depth. Duke connects to 14 German state and municipal portals, 18 French sources, Dutch TenderNed, and other national platforms that publish below-threshold opportunities invisible on TED alone.
Yes. Duke offers a personalised 30-minute demo tailored to your specific market and sector, so you can evaluate the platform with your own data before making a commitment.
Duke uses a graph database that connects buyers, suppliers, contracts, and awards across 300+ sources with automatic cross-source entity resolution. Hermix uses a more conventional data architecture with AI enrichment layers for analysis and matching. Duke's graph approach excels at revealing hidden relationships between entities across portals.
