SPI Market Intelligence

Analysis grounded in verified market evidence

Explore where price evidence is strong, where coverage is thin, and how much verified vendor quotations vary within the same product and market context.

Evidence before interpretation

  • Approved records onlyUnreviewed vendor offers do not enter this public view.
  • Provenance retainedSource, market, unit, recency, and corroboration remain attached.
  • History is not assumedSnapshot analysis is never mislabeled as a time-series trend.
  • Reusable evidenceInstitutional exports preserve coverage and method fields.

Interpretation guardrail

This snapshot supports coverage and dispersion analysis. A time-series trend requires repeated observations for the same product, unit, market, and price basis; SPI will label insufficient history instead of substituting a weaker method.

From vendor quote to trusted evidence

How SPI collects and publishes market prices

A vendor price is an offer until its product, place, date, unit, evidence, and review status are clear. SPI preserves that context before the number reaches analysis.

Read methodology
  1. Step 1

    Vendor identifies the offer

    A verified vendor selects the exact catalog item, unit, retail or wholesale basis, and currency.

  2. Step 2

    Market context is attached

    District, market, effective date, pack size, and availability travel with the submitted amount.

  3. Step 3

    Evidence is collected

    Receipts, shelf photos, notes, and field-monitor observations support the original vendor quote.

  4. Step 4

    SPI verifies and corroborates

    Reviewers check identity, unit, outliers, recency, and independent observations before approval.

  5. Step 5

    Price and analysis publish

    Approved observations become transparent price ranges, confidence signals, coverage, and analysis.
