Commerce intelligence for industrial and MRO procurement
Industrial buyers negotiate against last quarter's invoice because that is the only benchmark they have. Public distributor pricing plus a durable history turns that into a number with a date range attached.
Industrial & MRO
Negotiate against a distribution
A time-weighted median with a stated window is a defensible position in a negotiation. A screenshot of a competitor's website is not.

Long horizons
Industrial pricing moves slowly and matters over years. Append-only history means the record five years from now is the record as it was reported, not as it was later revised.

Where it lands in the API.
History
The observation series. Append-only — nothing is ever updated, so a replay reconstructs exactly what you were told and when.
Bulk export
The whole index, or your slice of it, as newline-delimited JSON or Parquet. Analysts should not paginate through an API to build a model.
Compare
One product across every seller that carries it, ranked by landed cost, with the spread. Server-side work is worth more than four raw reads the caller has to join.
Questions
