Assortment gaps, price architecture, competitive audits and sell-through - from live retail, not last quarter's export.

Merchandising agents use live browser automation to audit competitor assortment, pricing and stock position in real time, then compare it against a brand's own range and sell-through to surface gaps and price architecture issues.

The problem

The competitive audit is a quarterly deck built from screenshots. By the time it is presented the prices have moved twice and the assortment it describes is on markdown.

Questions

What buyers ask first.

How is this different from a price-scraping tool?

A scraper returns prices. These agents return the read: where your range has a gap, where the price architecture breaks against the set you actually compete with, and what changed since the last audit.

Is live browser automation allowed?

It reads public retail pages the way a person does. Rate and scope are configured per site during the install, and anything requiring authentication or breaching terms is out of scope by default.

Does it use our sell-through data?

Yes, through the context layer. Competitive assortment without your own sell-through beside it is only half the picture, and the half that is easier to buy elsewhere.

How often do audits run?

As often as the category moves. Fast-turn categories are usually weekly with change detection in between; a formalwear range does not need that cadence and paying for it would be waste.
