You know you should be using AI. But where do you start?

Everyone’s talking about AI. Your competitors are experimenting. Your team is asking questions. But turning the hype into something useful for commodity work isn’t obvious.

"How do I actually use this?"

ChatGPT is great for emails, but can it really help with soybean oil pricing?

"Can I trust it?"

AI makes things up. How do you know when to believe it and when to double-check?Every Copilot answer cites its sources. Every forecast shows its full accuracy record. You’re always the human in the loop.

"Is this even the right approach?"

There are a hundred AI tools out there. Which ones actually fit commodity workflows?

"This makes memes, not market calls"

The AI your kids use for funny images doesn’t understand basis risk or forward curves.

Vesper turns AI from a buzzword into a system that works with you and for you

We’ve spent years building AI applications specifically for food commodity workflows. Not generic tools adapted for commodities. Purpose-built systems designed around the questions you actually ask and the decisions you actually make.

AI News Filtering

We track thousands of global news outlets. Our AI filters out the noise and surfaces only the articles that matter to your commodities, in a curated feed updated daily.

Smart Notifications

Not every price move matters to you. Our AI learns which swings are relevant to your portfolio and alerts you only when there’s something worth knowing.
Human × AI

AI that works with experts, not instead of them

We don’t believe AI should replace commodity expertise. We believe it should multiply it. That’s why Vesper combines AI applications with a team of industry professionals who monitor markets, write analysis, and validate what our models produce. You get the speed and scale of AI with the judgment and context of humans who’ve worked these markets for years.

What's next?

You'll see it here first
We're working to bring the next wave of AI innovation to food commodities

While most commodity platforms are just now adding AI features, we’ve spent years building, testing, and refining ours specifically for food commodity workflows.

We’ve pushed our forecasting models through multiple generations, improving accuracy, expanding coverage, and extending how far ahead we can reliably predict. When large language models matured, we built Commodity Copilot, grounded in our data and analyst expertise, designed for the questions procurement teams actually ask.

AI is moving fast. We don’t know exactly what’s next. What we do know: we’ll keep doing the work to bring large-scale AI innovation to the food commodity space first.
