Retail
Your prices change once a night.
Your customers change by the second.
Pricing, promotions, inventory and allocation logic live in a mainframe whose heartbeat is the nightly batch. Demand doesn’t wait for it — and on peak days it punishes it.
The batch window
Promotions at the speed of demand
Demand moves all day. Tags flip at 2 a.m. Every spike between batches is margin you never saw.
The pricing and promo engine executes only when the store sleeps. Every intraday spike is repriced a day late.
Extracted with full lineage and rebuilt as services your commerce stack calls in milliseconds.

Late is its own kind of wrong
The pricing and promo engine isn’t wrong — it’s late. Markdown cadences, bundle rules, loyalty math, allocation: decades of merchandising wisdom, executable only when the store sleeps.
Palm Key maps the engine — every program, file, and CRUD path between merch, OMS and the ledger. Palm Ark extracts the pricing and promotion rules with full lineage, so merchandising can finally read its own playbook. Palm Ray rebuilds them as services your commerce stack calls in milliseconds.
Run it before peak season, not after the post-mortem: the rules you trust, unchained from the batch window — with the batch’s own logic as the proof.
