Get set up in four steps

A brand-new workspace starts empty on purpose — no retailers, no products, no runs. These four steps take you from zero data to your first pricing recommendation.

1. Connect the retailers you compete with

Price Checker only compares you against retailers you tell it to watch. Head to Settings → Retailers and add the competitors you want tracked. You can add them one at a time, or use the bulk import if you have a list.

2. Import what you sell

Next, tell Price Checker which of your own products to track. Add them manually or bring in a bulk list via Settings → Catalog → Import, which includes a downloadable sample CSV so you can match the expected columns.

3. Run your first check

With at least one retailer and one product in place, go to the Overview page and select Run now. This kicks off a price check across your connected retailers — checks consume research units against your plan's cap, so this is a deliberate action, not something that happens automatically until you set up a schedule.

4. Read your first recommendation

Once the run finishes, results land in the Action Center as pricing recommendations — one per product where something's worth reviewing. Each recommendation explains what changed and why, and you decide whether to accept or dismiss it.

• Get alerts when prices move — stop checking manually for changes.
• Sample data vs your data — if you loaded the demo dataset, read this before you run for real.
