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].

388 monthly price series from Switzerland are now live on the platform, sourced from Agrarmarktdaten, a new Swiss public data source covering Grains & Feed, Dairy, Eggs, and Fruits & Vegetables. This release includes 270 entirely new products.

What's new:

• 388 monthly price series across four commodity categories

• 270 newly created products not previously available on the platform

• Coverage sourced from Agrarmarktdaten, a Swiss public data provider

Why this matters: Swiss agricultural markets are often unique compared to surrounding countries. A dedicated data source for that region is essential for food manufacturers and retailers in Switzerland. This expansion gives you Swiss-specific benchmarks to compare alongside European and global prices, whether you're sourcing from Switzerland, selling into the market, or building cost models that reflect local conditions.

How to Use It:

• Track Swiss prices in the Prices Widget

• Compare against other European benchmarks in Price Comparison

• Incorporate into Cost Models for Swiss-sourced ingredients

How to access? Add to new or existing dashboards using the search function, 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.

Vesper now includes a monthly market report covering the Australian red meat market, produced by Episode 3 (EP3), an independent, data-driven market analysis service focused on agriculture and food manufacturing.

Australia is one of the world's largest beef and lamb exporters, and this report brings structured analysis of that market directly into the platform.

What's New:

• Two sections: Beef and Lamb, covering export statistics, slaughter ratios, herd size, and processor margins

• Monthly frequency: Updated each month with the latest Australian market data

• Complements existing coverage: Sits alongside the US Meat report for cross-regional comparison

Why It Matters:

Australian beef and lamb prices are a key reference point for anyone sourcing red meat globally. This report adds structured context on supply conditions, processing economics, and trade flows that is difficult to piece together from scattered public sources.

How to access?

The report is available in the Market Analysis section of the platform. Contact your Customer Success Manager at [email protected] if you need help locating it.

Vesper now covers poultry with in-house expert analysis. Our first Poultry Market Analysis report is live in the Market Analysis section.

What's new

• In-house written market report covering global poultry markets

• Global origins covered: Thailand and Brazil

• European origins covered: Poland, Spain, and Ukraine

• Published bi-weekly on Thursdays

• Available in the Market Analysis section alongside Dairy, Oils & Fats, and other category reports

Why this matters

Poultry is a key category for food manufacturers, retailers, and food service buyers, but reliable market analysis has been hard to find. This report gives you the same depth we bring to other categories: price drivers explained, supply context, and forward-looking outlooks.

Whether you're sourcing chicken breast from Brazil or tracking Polish production trends, you now have a consistent, independent view of the market.

Already using Vesper for meat? This report joins our existing US Beef and Chicken coverage from partner Leap Market Analytics, giving you both American and global market perspectives.

Vesper has expanded its proprietary specialty dairy protein coverage with two new Vesper Price Index (VPI) benchmarks: WPC80 Regular US and WPC80 Regular EU. Published every Wednesday, these benchmarks provide independent, region-specific price visibility, allowing procurement teams to track actual market spreads rather than relying on fixed premium assumptions or generic proxies.

What's New:

• Weekly Regional Benchmarks: Prices for WPC80 Regular in the US and EU, published every Wednesday.

• Verified Market Input: Prices derived from verified active market participants—both buyers and sellers—so you see where trade is actually getting done.

• Deep Specialty Coverage: Strengthens Vesper’s unique position in specialty proteins, joining our existing benchmarks for WPC80 Instant, MPCs, WPI, Caseinates, and other niche protein products.

Why It Matters:

Relying on "80 Instant" for "Regular" WPC80 can hide the actual cost. These new Vesper benchmarks provide the independent reference needed to verify quotes against actual market prices. By establishing a shared view of the market, buyers and sellers can align on price faster, ensuring fair trade and reducing the time spent negotiating over data sources.

How to Use It:

• Prices Widget: Bookmark the US and EU prices for one-click access to the latest Wednesday publication.

• Price Comparison: Compare the new WPC80 Regular prices to the Instant variant and use the Spread function to instantly visualize correlations, spot patterns, and track how the price gap evolves over time.

• Cost Models: Select these new benchmarks as ingredients in your Cost Models to see product costs with WPC80 Regular as an ingredient.

How to access?

These benchmarks are live for all Vesper users with access to the Dairy module. Contact your customer success manager at [email protected] for help integrating these new indices into your dashboard.

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.
