MAP Enforcement & Price Monitoring
i2o Price Monitor tracks pricing across every seller on Amazon, Walmart, TikTok Shop, and 2,000+ marketplaces. It flags MAP violations and enables automated enforcement, so one rogue seller can't drag your entire channel down.
The Problem
MAP violations are contagious. When one seller drops their price, others follow within hours. Without real-time enforcement, you won't catch it until the damage is done. And every week of inaction costs you margin you'll never recover.
Most digital shelf tools scrape once a day. By the time they report a violation, three more sellers have already matched the price. i2o checks pricing four times a day at varied intervals, capturing over 90% of price movements and showing you who moved first, so you can stop the cascade before it spreads.
And price erosion doesn't stay on Amazon. When retail partners see your products selling for less online, they demand better terms, creating channel conflict that threatens your entire distribution strategy.

How It Works
From policy setup to compliance tracking, our four-step process gives you complete visibility and control over pricing across your entire channel.
Turn static MAP policy documents into an enforceable, digitized system. Upload your catalog, define MAP pricing, and integrate with DocuSign so sellers acknowledge policies before they can sell.
Track pricing, Buy Box movement, and MAP violations in real time across Amazon, Walmart, Home Depot, Target, Wayfair, and hundreds of other marketplaces and retail sites.
When a violation is detected, automated outreach is triggered immediately. Custom alerts notify your team while violation notices are sent to offending sellers without manual intervention.
Repeat violators are automatically escalated through a structured compliance workflow. Track seller compliance history, manage authorized seller lists, and receive daily Executive Summaries highlighting priority actions.
Root Cause Analysis traces who triggered the price drop, who followed, and how it spread across marketplaces. Target enforcement at the trigger seller, not the followers chasing them down.
