FAQs
AI price optimization compares your prices with competitor prices, product features and promotions and suggests the price that best balances margin and competitiveness for each product. At Zenline AI, this comparison runs on the Zenline Market Brain, which holds all products from marketplaces and competitors in your market with their current prices and their price history. The Pricing Agent prepares a price for every product with its reasoning and sources, based on your company’s guardrails and strategy, and your team keeps the final say on what goes live.
The Zenline Pricing Agent improves margin by looking at every price in its full market context. It compares offers like for like, including identical, equivalent and substitute products at other retailers, and finds products that are priced too low for their value and products that are priced too aggressively. It suggests the right price for every variant, including the long tail. Every price respects your margin guardrails and your price positioning, so you gain margin and stay competitive.
All price data comes from the Zenline Market Brain, a digital model of all products in your market and category. It holds the current, regular and promotional prices of the retailers and marketplaces you choose, together with their full price history. The Pricing Agent matches these products to yours, so every comparison shows where your price stands today and how competitor prices have developed over time.
The Zenline Pricing Agent works for private label as well. The Zenline Market Brain holds all products in your market, including the branded or private-label products your private label competes with. The Pricing Agent matches each of your private-label products to the most similar branded products, based on similarities in attributes, images and descriptions, so you can set the right price gap between your own label and the brands.
The Pricing Agent captures and marks promotions, so a short-term discount at a competitor is visible as such in every comparison.
You stay in control. The agents do the work, from comparing prices to preparing every price change, and your team keeps the final say on what goes live. We are aware that every category has specifics that can be missing from a strategy briefing. When your team adds that context, the agents learn from it and their recommendations improve. Approved prices can be handed over to your pricing system, and the agents learn from every price your team approves or adjusts.
