What ClearDemand is
ClearDemand combines competitive intelligence, price optimization, and promotion optimization for grocery and convenience retailers. It uses a demand model to produce price recommendations based on measured demand response, with forecasts for revenue, gross profit, and units before a retailer accepts a change. Its promotion tools plan offers against base prices and competitive position, then support forecasting and post-event measurement. Approved prices can be sent to POS, shelf labels, ecommerce, and mobile on the retailer’s schedule. ClearDemand collects and matches its own competitive data and says it processes more than 7 million data points daily. Listed live connections include NCR HQ, PDI, SAP HANA, and Oracle NetSuite; data is delivered over SFTP or into a customer cloud warehouse. The company targets regional grocery, convenience, and wholesale operators, generally with approximately $500 million to $20 billion in revenue and multi-store or multi-zone pricing. It says it is not suited to single-store or single-zone operators, low-cost ecommerce repricing, or buyers seeking self-service fixed subscriptions. Pricing is on request, with annual subscriptions individually scoped.
