Linking: a coherent foundation for your pricing structure
Price consistency between related products is an essential strategic lever for strengthening brand perception and optimizing sales.
However, without automation, invisible differences between similar or complementary products can quickly weaken your price image and undermine the legibility of your product ranges.
These inconsistencies often confuse consumers, and can lead to a loss of confidence and even a negative impact on sales.
Adopt a high-performance linking solution, perfectly integrated with a pricing solution enables you to structure your assortments efficiently, guaranteeing rigorous price harmonization between linked products.
As a result, you gain agility, strategic coherence and total control over your pricing policy, while boosting your customers’ confidence.
How does product linking improve the consistency of your product ranges?
Linking products ensures logical price relationships between formats, volumes or variations, avoiding discrepancies that blur the positioning and clarity of the offering.
Inconsistent prices between linked products weaken consumer perception. Structured chaining enhances the credibility of the offer and supports the value strategy.
By structuring ranges via linking, buyers, category managers and pricing teams have a clear, automated decision-making framework, supported by customizable chaining rules.
Automating the detection of unjustified price discrepancies cuts the time needed to manage inconsistencies by a factor of three, while ensuring pricing consistency.
Linking enables us to identify logical sequences (entry, core, premium) to build coherent ranges aligned with business objectives.
Thanks to AI and integration with reference systems (ERP, PIM, article database), the solution enables harmonized, scalable management of all products, including private labels.
The structure of your ranges deserves better than approximations.
Our product linking solution gives you a powerful tool for organizing, controlling and harmonizing your intra-range prices in a consistent, automated and sustainable way.
Ensure price consistency across your ranges and strengthen your price image
In an environment where consumers compare products with a magnifying glass, price inconsistency within the same range directly undermines a brand’s credibility and the perception of its pricing strategy.
Consistency in pricing and linking is not just a detail: it’s a strategic pillar for inspiring confidence, facilitating the buying act and giving each product its rightful place.
Automatic consistency check of linked products
Avoid breaks in pricing logic between formats, flavors, volumes or variations, thanks to permanent control of product links.
Definition of Value Drivers by category

Application of intelligent coefficient profiles
Determine realistic price corridors using coefficients adapted to each range, brand or product typology.
Automatic rate chain generation with AI
Our algorithms reliably identify, link and structure your ranges, even with large volumes of data.
