Pricing data sources
Four types of data feed into Vesper's pricing layer
Each serves a different purpose, from broad market coverage to specification-level benchmarks for products no one else tracks.
Public data
Government and industry benchmarks from official sources. We aggregate these so you don't have to check ten different websites.

Reliable benchmarks reduce negotiation cycles
Instead of renegotiating weekly, tie contracts to a published reference. For products without established benchmarks, VPI creates the reference that makes formula-based pricing possible.

Market fundamentals
Prices don't move in isolation
Weather disrupts harvests. Trade policy shifts flows. Production data signals supply changes. Understanding why markets move matters as much as knowing where they are.
We have gathered massive datasets and made them accessible through visualizations that show the full supply and demand picture, so you can see what's driving the market, not just react to it.
