New capability in Spreetail’s Smart Shelf operating system brings together real-time scoring across five performance pillars that drive market share shifts on Amazon
Brand Benchmark
LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Spreetail, the leading ecommerce marketplace accelerator for durable goods, today launched Brand Benchmark, a groundbreaking competitive intelligence dashboard that cuts through the noise to show brands where they stand against their competitors and what is causing their market share to move. Brand Benchmark insight is provided to Spreetail’s brand partners as part of its Smart Shelf AI-powered retail operating system.
Brand Benchmark is the first platform to score brand and competitor performance across the five pillars that drive Amazon sales: findability, conversion, price, inventory and market share. It combines extensive marketplace data with Spreetail’s proprietary modeling to deliver unprecedented insights. More than 20 underlying metrics feed each percentile-ranked score, which draws from a searchable set of the top 400,000 Amazon US brands. Spreetail’s AI continuously monitors competitor traffic, ads, promotions and pricing, separating the moves that actually shifted share from the ones that merely happened at the same time. Spreetail’s expert merchant team uses Brand Benchmark to guide its partners with evidence-based advice on their competitive position. A self-service option is planned for a future release.
“Brands have insights into their own sales and profits, but they often don’t have visibility into the dozens of factors that are affecting their competitive position on Amazon. And if they did, sifting through the data to separate signals from noise would be a full-time job,” said Josh Smith, Chief Technology Officer at Spreetail. “Brand Benchmark does all that for them. It closes the gaps in their data, erases blind spots and provides insights that give them clear next steps to improve their competitive positioning. Most Amazon analytics tools hand sellers a dashboard and leave the interpretation to them. Brand Benchmark attributes a change in share to a specific competitor lever, whether that is a price cut, a new promotion or an ad push, so brands know exactly how they should react.”
Brand Benchmark’s key capabilities include:
- Brand scorecard: Percentile-ranked scores across findability, conversion, price, inventory and market share, built from more than 20 underlying metrics, giving an immediate read on where a brand over- or underperforms its competitors.
- Competitive set and market share mapping: Competitor selection can be customized across niches, with intelligent segmentation that keeps the comparison exact rather than approximate.
- AI-generated analysis and alerts: Daily notifications and email summaries flag how recent competitor changes affect a product or category’s market share, with causal AI monitoring traffic, ads, promotions, prices and other levers.
- Historical market driver analysis: A timeline of market share history, with AI-generated insights at each inflection point identifying what drove the change.
The launch continues Spreetail’s ongoing investments in proprietary technology built for big-and-bulky brands looking to scale their marketplace growth without taking on massive operational overhead. Smart Shelf comes at no cost to brand partners and is fully embedded into Spreetail’s live retail and fulfillment operations. Through five integrated capabilities, it optimizes how a brand’s own products are priced, listed, advertised and delivered. Brand Benchmark adds a view of everything moving around them.
Spreetail now powers more than $1 billion in GMV annually and is a top-five seller on Amazon, Walmart and Target. On average, Smart Shelf delivers 40% sales growth for brands within their first 12 months and, in July, the suite won silver in the 2026 Stevie Awards for Technology Excellence.
