The Ultimate Guide to Share of Voice in Retail Media

Share of Voice (SOV) is the percentage of total advertising visibility your brand captures in a product category compared to your competitors. In retail media, it’s one of the most actionable indicators of whether your brand is winning or losing on the digital shelf.  ROAS tells you how efficiently your ads are converting. It doesn’t tell you how visible […]

From Data Complexity to Clarity: How Commerce Intelligence Unlocks Growth

Most retail media teams are sitting on more data than they can use. The problem isn’t access. It’s that the data lives in separate walled-garden dashboards, each with its own metrics, attribution models, and reporting formats, making it nearly impossible to see the full picture.  Commerce intelligence changes that. It unifies ad performance, retail operations, and real-time shopper signals into one […]

Retail Media Fragmentation: The Cost of Data Silos in 2026

Q1 Household & Health Industry Trends & Takeaways: Efficiency, Pricing, and Retail Media Shifts

In 2026, Health & Household brands face a familiar set of challenges: enduring price sensitivity, mounting competition, and strong, abiding pressure to prove retail media profitability.  While demand for Health & Household continues to grow—brand average daily sales increased 21.4% YoY—it’s not being captured equally. Brands that prioritize efficiency, precision, and full-funnel alignment are outperforming those that rely on blunt visibility tactics alone.    And that divide is only widening.  […]

AI in Action: Real-Time Retail Signals and Smarter Campaign Performance for Peak Shopping Moments

Peak shopping events don’t reward preparation alone. They reward the ability to act on what’s happening right now. The brands that win aren’t necessarily the ones with the biggest budgets. They’re the ones whose AI layer sees a Buy Box shift, an inventory drain, or a conversion window opening, and responds before the opportunity closes or the damage accumulates. Intelligence, automation, and governed action working as one system: that’s what separates peak performance from peak spend.
