Access curated, AI-filtered market updates directly within PINPOOLS to understand critical supply chain, geopolitical, and price-shifting developments.
Five outcomes procurement teams see when market news stops being a newsletter and starts being a signal inside sourcing.
Alerts fire the moment a high-impact event hits a benchmark or contract you own — so a Force Majeure on Monday morning is an action item, not a Monday afternoon surprise.
Every update sits next to the median and the deal count for the same material — decisions land on data, not on gut.
Geopolitical shifts, commodity swings, Force Majeure and planned shutdowns — the events that move price appear where you source.
Tenders, negotiations, and price series update against the same market picture — no more sourcing decisions built on stale context.
Early awareness of market changes is the difference between locking a rate in time and paying the surge — especially in volatile categories.
The mechanics that turn a global stream of headlines into a signal you can act on.
A continuous stream of curated market signals — supply chain, geopolitical, and price-shifting developments as they happen.
Narrow the feed to the categories that matter to your portfolio — chemicals, coatings, pharma, logistics — one filter at a time.
Every news item is tagged with a price-impact indicator — buyers see at a glance what actually moves cost, and what is background noise.
Market news is embedded per material in the Benchmarks tab (Forecasts & News), so updates sit next to price, forecast, and contract.
Buyers are notified of high-impact events tied to their active benchmarks or contracts — the signal reaches you when it can still change the decision.
Market News lives per material in the Benchmarks tab — filtered, tagged with price impact, wired to alerts, and one click away from a renegotiation, RFQ, or supplier engagement.
Open any material in the Benchmarks tab and go to Forecasts & News — intro, details, market reactions, conclusions, Force Majeure and planned shutdowns, plus data sources sit together in one panel.
Every item carries a price-impact indicator, so buyers see immediately which headlines actually move cost and which are context — no more reading the whole feed to decide.
Narrow the feed to the categories that actually matter to your portfolio. The AI keeps prioritization consistent across the filtered set.
Alerts fire when a high-impact event lands on a material tied to one of your active benchmarks or contracts — no digging through the feed to find out what applies to you.
From a news item, buyers step directly into renegotiation, RFQ creation, or supplier engagement — no switching tools, no re-entering context.
This has helped companies act faster during supply disruptions, anticipate cost surges, and renegotiate terms proactively. Especially in volatile sectors like chemicals, early awareness of market changes has proven crucial in maintaining stable pricing and supply continuity.
