The reality for category managers

You spend hours assembling a market picture that's stale by the meeting.

Prices, indices, trade measures, supplier signals and regulation live in dozens of places. Pulling them together is slow — and once a number lands in a negotiation deck, you have to be able to defend it. Most market reports can't even tell you where a figure came from.

How it works

From category to defensible report in three steps.

Choose your category

Pick a commodity or category and set your company profile — sector, footprint, currency, spend and priorities — so every report is tailored to you.

Live data meets current research

The assistant pulls 34+ public data sources — ECB, Eurostat, World Bank, IMF, FAO, GDELT, AGSI+ and more — and runs targeted web research on the latest developments.

A structured, sourced report

AI assembles a multi-section report grounded in that data, with every figure traced to its source — ready to read, export to PDF, Word or PowerPoint, and act on.

Then it keeps watch

Add your key categories and suppliers to a watchlist and the assistant scans them daily — pushing supply, trade, regulatory and supplier-distress alerts to your inbox or webhook.

Inside a report

Eight angles on your category, one coherent brief.

Market summary

The state of the market with the top risks and opportunities, up front.

Price trends & should-cost

Where prices are heading, a 3-year EU benchmark and a should-cost sensitivity view.

Negotiation levers

Who holds the power right now, with levers, clauses and traps to take into the room.

Supplier landscape

The competitive field, positioning and what it means for your sourcing.

Supply disruptions

Early warning on the risks to availability — and concrete resilience moves.

Regulatory & compliance

What's changing — CBAM, CSRD and more — and what it means for your contracts.

Sustainability

Carbon and ESG exposure for the category, with practical implications.

Action plan

A prioritised, deduplicated plan across every section — what to do, and why.

Monitoring & alerts

A standing watch on your watchlist.

Add the commodities and suppliers that matter, and the assistant scans them every day for news-volume spikes and risk signals — supply disruptions, labour action, trade measures, regulatory moves and supplier distress — pushing what matters to your inbox or a Teams/Slack webhook.

Why category managers use it

Less assembling. More deciding.

Hours back, every category

What took a day of digging takes minutes — so your time goes to strategy, not collection.

Numbers you can defend

Every figure traces to a named public source. The tool never states a number it can't source — and you can verify the figures in one click.

Leverage in the room

A clear read on the balance of power, with levers, clauses and traps tailored to the category and the moment.

See risk before it hits

Daily monitoring of your watchlist flags supply, trade, regulatory and supplier-distress signals — pushed to you by email or webhook.

Tailored to your organisation

Reports reflect your sector, footprint, invoicing currency, spend and strategic priorities.

In your language

Full reports in English, Dutch and French.

Built to be trusted

Every number, back to its source.

Each report shows the live sources behind it, with reference dates and a freshness indicator. Figures carry inline citations, you can export the full source list to Excel, and a one-click check verifies the report's numbers against live data and the web. If a figure can't be sourced, the tool won't state it.
