Powerful intelligence starts with a better way in.

Compass has always surfaced what is changing across the shelf. Its Intelligence Engine helps turn those signals into a starting plan, with a path back to the data behind it.

Ask in your own words

Start with the business question, without hunting through dashboards.

Shape a response

Explore a suggested path for a promotion, a buyer conversation, or a competitive move.

Verify and move

Follow an insight into the underlying Compass data before deciding what to do next.

From shelf signal to next move.

Explore a promotion plan, build a stronger buyer conversation, respond to a challenger or see how your category compares. Compass helps connect the question to the shelf evidence.

Turn promotional data into a plan.

Compare competing offers, price positions and promotion timing. Use what the shelf shows to focus your next move.

Bring a different story to each buyer.

A Mass retailer’s broad category set calls for differentiation. A Value retailer’s compact set calls for a focused offer.

Know where to defend, and where to hold.

Distinguish selective retailer acceleration from a category-wide threat. Prioritize distribution, assortment, price and promotion moves with the data caveats in view.
