ShelfPulse

ShelfPulse is a mobile + web app for beverage brands to audit retail execution without paying for expensive field teams. Store staff, distributors, or hired gig workers capture shelf photos, prices, promos, and out-of-stocks in minutes. The app turns those visits into standardized scorecards by SKU and retailer, highlighting compliance gaps (wrong price, missing tags, competitor encroachment, empty facings). An AI layer reads shelf images to detect your products, estimate facings, and flag likely out-of-stocks, then generates a weekly “fix list” for each account. Brands can share tasks with distributors (e.g., “add 2 facings,” “replace shelf talker”) and track completion. Realistically, this won’t replace full syndicated data, but it can deliver fast, actionable visibility for small-to-mid beverage brands that are currently blind between sales reports and occasional store walks.
