See every featureNot sure your prices are leaving revenue on the table? Manual price changes and constant discounting make it hard to know what pricing actually works. PendlPricing continuously optimizes your prices based on sales signals, making small, controlled adjustments over time — while you stay in control with limits, pause, stop, and revert options.
Smart Price helps merchants capture more revenue with data‑driven pricing. It analyzes recent sales and public signals to suggest updates for top‑performing products, then lets you approve in bulk or auto‑apply with guardrails (min/max ranges, cooldowns). Set per‑product limit ranges, track “Smart Revenue” with order‑level attribution, and roll back changes when needed.
- Set min/max on each product. Turn auto-pricing on or off anytime.
- Prices move after orders or on schedule—always within your limits.
- Test up, down, or both from sales. Pause, stop, or revert anytime.
- Turn your best‑sellers into profit engines with data-driven price suggestions
- You own your algorithm: min/max ranges, cooldowns, and optional auto‑adjust
- See impact instantly with Smart Revenue calculation and one‑click bulk approvals
- Inspired by Airbnb’s powerful Smart Pricing feature to assign automatic prices
