Executive Summary

Brands and retailers (an addressable universe of roughly 600,000 mid‑market and enterprise accounts) struggle to maintain pricing, assortment and compliance consistency across storefronts, marketplaces and hundreds of physical stores, resulting in revenue leakage and channel conflict. Current approaches rely on infrequent manual audits or siloed point solutions, leaving buy‑box integrity, on‑shelf availability and content accuracy unmonitored in real time. The product would be a cloud‑native real‑time retail monitoring platform that fuses marketplace and web‑crawled telemetry with POS/ERP feeds and computer‑vision‑backed in‑store image recognition to produce automated alerts, analytics and remediation workflows. It would target an average $30K annual contract per account with modules for price/content monitoring, shelf compliance scoring (aiming for >90% CV accuracy), alert routing and one‑click remediation actions such as price updates, reseller outreach and catalog fixes. This is an attractive moment: market sizing at roughly $18.0B and accelerating omnichannel complexity means brands need unified visibility now, while advances in computer vision and richer marketplace APIs make reliable automated monitoring technically feasible. Marketplace dominance and rapid SKU churn on Amazon and other channels increase the frequency of violations and create a recurring SaaS revenue model, but competition is medium and remains fragmented across specialized point solutions. To stand out you must build a multi‑channel data moat with direct retail and marketplace integrations, demonstrate repeatable CV accuracy, and close the loop with automated remediation so customers see quantifiable ROI; expect significant engineering effort for integrations, ongoing model maintenance and longer enterprise sales cycles. Given the strong market scores (92/100) and revenue potential (88/100), pursuing this is reasonable if you can secure the engineering and GTM resources to overcome integration complexity and the sales ramp.
