It recommends optimal price targets and floors for proposals based on key price drivers revealed by data, all in real time. Using data on past orders, inventory pressure and recent price trends; predictive modeling techniques are applied to price new proposals accurately.

A small footprint and flexible architecture ensures quick software integration with minimal hardware requirements. The application can be installed in a few minutes and can run on logs exported out of Operative and DFP. In fact, Zoox Yield Manager is fully integrated with Google's DFP and allows publishers directly retrieve order information from their DFP accounts.
The application has three basic modules viz. Estimate Price Model, Proposal Pricing and Booking Forecast.
• Estimate Price Model uses historical data and advanced statistics to create a price model that captures important price drivers and also provides diagnostics on historical deals.
• Proposal Pricing provides guidance to the sales team by setting price targets, floors and rate cards for each proposal ensuring a faster response to RFPs.
• Booking Forecast lets the user generate weekly forecasts for a single or a set of products. Combined with capacity forecasts, it provides a forward looking way for setting prices based on predicted capacity utilization.
