Simplify's take

What believers are saying

  • October 2026 added 1,464 prices, 2,500 AI forecasts, and quarterly Forecast views.
  • Vesper shipped Excel, Homefeed, and AI-tool integrations in September-October 2026.
  • Hiring for account management, enterprise sales, and engineering signals active commercial expansion.

What critics are saying

  • Commodity intelligence is a niche market; 2026 hiring ads show Amsterdam-centric operations and concentration.
  • If VPI methodology loses trust, contracts, forecasts, and pricing workflows unravel quickly.
  • Large incumbents like Euronext or enterprise procurement suites can bundle similar analytics and undercut Vesper.

What makes Vesper unique

  • Vesper’s transaction-based VPI now covers 21 commodity markets and 20,000+ price series.
  • Commodity Copilot and Commodity Agent embed Vesper data directly into buyer workflows.
  • Euronext-licensed benchmarks plus exclusive Upply freight data strengthen Vesper’s proprietary dataset.
