Retail Price Optimization Software

Price on elasticity you can measure. Most retailers find it in a post-mortem. Ward surfaces it while there is still time to act.

Ward monitors price elasticity shifts in real time and recommends adjustments that protect margin without sacrificing volume.

Why did Store 37 miss target last week?

Schema Scout · routed to Merchandising Agent

I pulled Store 37’s last 28 days against the chain baseline. Two root causes, both compounding.

SignalFinding
labor_efficiencyRev/labor-hour −22% vs. cluster, staffing mismatch at 11a–1p peak
inventory.freshFresh fill 83%, backroom replenishment lag at 2–4p
promo.liftBOGO crackers cannibalized Brand Y by 28%, net category +6%

Recommend: re-baseline Store 37 schedule against true peak, raise replen window to 1p, and review the BOGO before next cycle.

Questions about pricing.

Ward continuously measures price elasticity by category, tracks competitive pricing signals, and models the margin-volume tradeoff. Each card explains what changed, the root cause, and the recommended action, at the store-category level, not estate aggregates.

Ward delivers pricing insight cards within 48 hours of data connection, with baselines tightening over the first two weeks. Most issues are surfaced before they show up in weekly or quarterly reports.

Ward runs classical statistical and time-series models your planners can audit, backtested against your last 24 months. The model card, MAPE, and confidence interval ride on every answer. The LLM frames the result; the number comes from the math.

Two ways to start.

Run a fixed-fee pilot on your data, or talk to advisory about a broader engagement.
