Word-Is: Weekly NYC Spending, Explained

A factual, small-vendor-centered view of how NYC SLED dollars actually move—published every week.

Word-Is is:

  • A retrospective view of NYC spending activity
  • Grounded in transaction-level public data
  • Organized using a plain-language vendor taxonomy
  • Focused on economic substance, not participation optics

Word-Is is not:

  • A forecasting product
  • A bid alert service
  • A recommendation engine

Why vendors read it

Most vendors don't need more information. They need help making meaning of what already exists.

Word-Is exists to do that—consistently, carefully, and from the perspective of small operators who don't have teams to interpret this data every week.
