July was about answering the hardest question in the job: why is the price moving, and what comes next? Connect the Dots reads the drivers for you and shows the case for higher and lower on one screen. The Copilot now suggests follow-up questions, picking a product got quicker everywhere in the platform, and 424 new prices landed across 15 commodities.
What shipped:
- Connect the Dots. Click any price on your Homefeed and it brings the drivers together in one place, sorted into bulls and bears, on the same screen as the live price and the forecast. Hover over an argument and the data, news article, or report behind it appears, always from inside Vesper. “View full analysis” opens the outlook for the months ahead, quarter by quarter, with every source listed underneath.
- The Copilot suggests where to look next. After every answer, Commodity Copilot offers follow-up questions as buttons. Tap one and it keeps going. Your Q3 set of 3 fresh conversations landed on 1 July.
- Picking the right product got quicker. Every widget now uses the same product selector as Search, with your cost models and own data in clear tabs, plus filtering, previews, and specs for any benchmark Vesper carries. Search itself got clearer ranking and a save button on the Preview page.
- Your dashboards, polished. Rename dashboards and widgets by clicking on them, reorder dashboards by dragging them where you want them, compare quarter on quarter in the prices widget, and notes are back on your graphs, history included.
