Four practice areas for commerce intelligence and research.

Clovty's work is organized around four practice areas: market and category intelligence, custom AI analysis, ongoing trend monitoring, and commercial due diligence. Each project is fixed in scope and defined in writing before work begins, and every conclusion is tied to a sourced dataset that the client team can verify and extend.

Market & Category Intelligence

Strategic demand mapping for brand and category leaders evaluating market entry or regional expansion.

Core deliverables

  • → Regional demand sizing and competitive density indexing across major commerce ecosystems
  • → Pricing architecture and margin-band analysis for category benchmarking
  • → Trajectory modeling: 24-month forecasts on search interest and consumer signals
  • → Executive brief containing decision-grade conclusions and source register

Typical timeline: 3–4 weeks · PDF Brief & Analytical Data Module

Custom AI Analysis

Bespoke software and analytical pipelines designed for merchandising and analytics teams with proprietary research requirements.

Project scope

  • → Deployment of custom NLP pipelines for large-scale consumer sentiment classification
  • → Machine-learning models for price-elasticity studies and assortment rationalization
  • → Automated data normalization across disparate multi-region commerce datasets
  • → Technical documentation and code-base delivery for client-side integration

Typical timeline: 4–8 weeks · Technical Report & Code Modules

Trend & Demand Monitoring

Continuous intelligence programs for category managers requiring early-inflection detection and competitive signal monitoring.

Advisory components

  • → Monthly analytical briefs covering watched category shifts and SKU-level movements
  • → Anomaly-detection alerts for pricing shifts or significant competitive entrants
  • → Quarterly strategy recalibration sessions with the lead data architect

Retainer Model: USD Retainer · 6-month minimum term

Commercial Due Diligence

For institutional investors and M&A teams conducting technical validation of digital-commerce assets.

Diligence framework

  • → Independent validation of category revenue claims through quantitative modeling
  • → Defensibility assessment: Listing health, review integrity, and sentiment profile
  • → Risk-matrix report highlighting category saturation and structural vulnerabilities

Timeline: 2–4 weeks (High-priority) · Confirmed NDA Required
