FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How many price series can I compare at once?
You can overlay multiple price series on the same chart simultaneously. There is no hard limit, most users compare between 2 and 6 series at a time for clarity. You can mix benchmarks, regions, products, and timeframes freely.
What types of benchmarks are available for comparison?
Vesper includes four benchmark types on the same platform: the Vesper Price Index (VPI), commercial partner prices from leading price reporting agencies, open-source data from exchanges and official agencies, and futures prices. This means you can compare physical benchmarks against futures or forwards directly.
How do I generate a price spread?
Select any two price series on the platform and click the spread button. Vesper instantly calculates the price difference between them and displays it as a chart over your selected time period. You can flip the spread direction and export the result.
Can I compare prices across different currencies or units?
Yes. Vesper handles currency conversion and unit standardization automatically. You can view any price series in your preferred currency and unit, making cross-country comparisons accurate and consistent.
How does the cost price breakdown feature work?
The cost price breakdown links each ingredient in a product's recipe to its current Vesper price series. As commodity prices move, the blended ingredient cost updates automatically. This gives procurement and finance teams a real-time view of how raw material price changes flow through to finished product costs.
