Recover up to 6% of margin
Stop losing margin by shifting to portfolio-based AI pricing based on own price elasticities and cross-dependencies between products
Traditional pricing approaches lead to recurring margin losses
Portfolio-based AI pricing is the cure
- recovery of up to 6% of previously lost margin
- increased customer lifetime value
- up to 60% promo pressure reduction
- increased average selling price / basket value
- an average of 8% revenue rebound
How portfolio-based AI pricing works?
Competera's portfolio pricing relies on a
demand-based pricing engine powered with neural networks measuring products own price elasticity and cross-elasticities to ensure that goals on both the product and the category level are achieved.
The algorithms can work on separate assortment groups, which allows parallelization and scalability. The accuracy of every recommendation is achieved through context-dependent price elasticities and a high-performance solver capable of shoveling through billions of possible price combinations to find the right one.
