All About Price Alerts

Price Alerts help you monitor products across retailers and regions, know when prices go outside your target range, and quickly respond by quarantining retailers.

Key highlights:

  • Monitor min, max, average prices & total retailers.
  • Filter by date range, region, and product attributes (e.g., age, vintage, pack).
  • Visualize historical trends by day or week.
  • Quarantine retailers temporarily when they violate pricing thresholds.
