Allometry vs Vendavo.

Vendavo is enterprise pricing software for B2B distribution + industrial manufacturing. Allometry is the decision substrate across price, deploy, expand, govern — for asset-heavy operators where pricing is one of four loops, not the whole product.

TL;DR

Vendavo is a category leader in enterprise pricing for distribution + manufacturing. Mature, deep, expensive.

Allometry is a different shape. Pricing is 1 of 4 loops (Price · Deploy · Expand · Govern). The substrate underneath — the canonical address graph — is what makes the math work, and what makes the product extensible into dispatch, ABM, governance. Vendavo solves one loop well. Allometry solves the four together.

Three reasons operators want more than pricing.

§ 01 · Cross-loop value

"Pricing optimization without dispatch context is half the picture."

A repriced quote that lands on the wrong crew with the wrong parts still loses margin in the field. Allometry's Active Operations + Cost Engine reconcile estimate vs. actual at the line, the crew, the supplier. Vendavo doesn't.

§ 02 · Address-level economics

"Our pricing is SKU. Our margin is address."

Vendavo prices by SKU × segment × geo. Allometry prices by address — because for asset-heavy operators (HVAC, fiber, EV, solar), the same SKU performs differently at different addresses. The math has to follow the unit.

§ 03 · Agent-native

"Custom automations in hours, not quarters."

Vendavo's ML + workflow customization is enterprise-grade — and takes enterprise-grade implementation timelines. Allometry's Pulse Workflows lets an operator fork an SOP and ship a custom agent in an afternoon.

When operators add Allometry alongside Vendavo.

Some operators run both. Vendavo handles enterprise pricing optimization at the SKU level; Allometry handles address-level decisions and the other three loops. Most replace Vendavo entirely after 6 months.

§ 01

Audit overlap

We map what Vendavo does well + what's underutilized. Honest call on whether you replace or layer.

§ 02

OAuth + sweep

Connect ERP + CRM + FSM. 90-day data sweep against your live cost model.

§ 03

Margin Guard live

Address-level scoring on every new quote. Runs alongside Vendavo if you keep both.

§ 04

Expand to 4 loops

Once Price loop is proven, expand to Deploy / Expand / Govern modules. One platform, not five.
