The objective of the “APPIA” project is to build the innovative software solution “Altilia Price and Product Intelligence Advisor”. The central idea behind this innovative solution is the ability to:

• Collect product prices, discounts, shipping costs, availability, comments and customer recommendations, in a timely and continuous manner, from online stores and from other websites specialized in this kind of information such as industry blogs, newspapers and magazines, etc.
• Apply sophisticated semantic analysis on customer comments to find out what customers like their judgment of a given “online retailer”.
• Store data collected from various e-commerce within a “Universal Multilingual Product Taxonomy – UMPT” capable to support analysis and comparison of any product sold online.
• Apply predictive algorithms to identify the best price to be assigned to a product at a given time on the basis of market conditions (dynamic pricing).
