Products Purpose-Built for Pet Brands
Deduction Management
Shelf-stable pet SKUs generate heavy deduction volume. Brands selling through Petco, PetSmart, Chewy, and mass accounts face co-op advertising deductions, slotting fees, freight claims, spoilage allowances, and more.
Confido matches remittances, categorizes every deduction, and files disputes automatically - all while keeping accruals up to date.

Trade Promotion Management
Pet care brands run frequent promotional events across products at Petco, PetSmart, Chewy, and more.
Confido enables trade spend planning and tracking at the item and account levels, measures promotional lift against POS movement, and keeps trade accruals current so teams are always working from the same numbers.

Retail Analytics
Confido integrates directly with syndicated data sources including SPINS and Nielsen, pulling velocity, market share, and distribution metrics into the platform automatically alongside retailer POS data.
Your team gets current market context built into their planning workflows without manual exports or reconciliation across

Forecasting, Demand & Supply Planning
Petco replenishes differently than Chewy, and a new protein launch doesn't move the same way at Target as it does at a specialty pet retailer.
Confido builds sales forecasts and demand plans from dynamic inputs, then turns them into a self-updating supply plan that recommends POs against lead times, MOQs, and safety stock, and flags stockouts before they happen.
