Commodity Copilot is now accessible from any dashboard through a side panel. Ask questions as you work with your data.

What's new:

• Copilot side panel is available on every dashboard. Open it without leaving your current view.

• See your prices, charts, and reports on the left. Ask Copilot about them on the right.

• Spot something in the data you want to understand? Just ask.

Why this matters:

Before this update, using Copilot meant navigating to a separate page. Now you can look at a price move in your chart and ask what's driving it without losing your place. Data and interpretation, side by side.

How to access?

Open the Copilot side panel using the icon in the top-right of any dashboard, or contact your Customer Success Manager at [email protected].

Over 2,000 Fish & Seafood price series are now available on the Vesper platform through an integration with Undercurrent, a specialist seafood data provider.

What's new:

• 2,000+ price series across 15 product groups within Fish & Seafood

• Global and regional coverage from a specialist seafood data provider

• Data accessible through your existing Vesper dashboards

Important: Bring Your Own License Undercurrent data requires an active Undercurrent subscription. If you already subscribe to Undercurrent, contact your Customer Success Manager to activate access within Vesper. This model lets you view your Undercurrent data alongside all your other commodity benchmarks in one platform.

Why this matters: Seafood markets are among the most fragmented and volatile in food commodities. Prices vary by species, origin, catch method, and season. That makes it difficult to track costs or compare supplier quotes with any confidence. With Undercurrent data in Vesper, teams across procurement, finance, and category management can check quotes, compare prices, and track trends for fish and seafood. All in the same workflow you use for other commodities.

How to access? Contact your Customer Success Manager at [email protected] to activate Undercurrent data on your account.

Import/Export, Supply & Demand, and Futures widgets each had multiple versions for different views of the same data. These are now consolidated into a single widget per data type. For example, where you previously had three separate Futures widgets, you now have one that covers all views.

What's new

• Toggle between table and graph views within each widget

• Switch between historical and forward data without leaving the widget

• All controls are built into the widget, so one widget now does the job of several

Your existing widgets have been automatically replaced with the new versions, using the same parameters you had selected. Nothing changes to your dashboards. If you want different views side by side, you can duplicate a widget and set each one to a different view.

Why this matters

Where you previously needed multiple widgets to see the same data in different formats, one widget now covers it. Dashboards stay cleaner, and you spend less time setting up views.

On mobile, the consolidated widgets will follow at a later stage. For now, the previous versions remain available there.

Price forecasts now display weekly data points instead of monthly. The same 12-month coverage now gives you 52 weekly forecasts; 6-month coverage gives you 26 weekly forecasts.

What it does: Shows forecast at weekly intervals rather than monthly What you can do: Track expected price movements week-to-week and time purchases more precisely Why it matters: Spot trends between monthly intervals and answer the tactical question: commit this week or wait? Especially valuable when markets are volatile.

Vesper has Expanded Forecast Coverage, adding 1200+ new price forecasts across key commodity categories. This massive expansion adds price outlooks to previously unforecasted products, enabling procurement teams to anticipate price movements across their entire commodity basket—from coffee beans to meat cuts.

What's New:

• 1200+ New Forecasts: Price predictions now available for products that previously showed only historical data

• Multi-Category Coverage: Major expansion across Eggs, Grains, Meats, and Coffee categories

• Enhanced Cost Model Predictions: More ingredients in your cost models now are part of forecasts

• Deeper Market Visibility: Forward-looking insights for specialty and regional products that lacked predictive analytics

Why It Matters: Procurement decisions require forward visibility across all ingredients, not just major commodities. This expansion eliminates forecast gaps that forced teams to make assumptions about future prices. Now, whether you're buying specialty coffee blends or regional meat cuts, you have data-driven predictions to guide purchasing decisions and budget planning.

What's included?

• Eggs: Shell eggs, liquid, and processed egg products

• Grains: Wheat, corn, barley, and specialty grain varieties

• Meats: Beef, pork, and poultry cuts across multiple regions

• Coffee: Arabica, Robusta, and regional blend benchmarks

• 12-month forecast horizons (where data availability permits)

• Automatic integration with existing cost models
