description: Circana (formerly IRI and The NPD Group) does not publish list pricing for its market
  intelligence products or for Liquid Data, Liquid Data Go, Unify+, Intelligence Suite, or any of
  the Complete category APIs. Pricing is custom per client and is shaped by data scope (categories,
  geographies, panels), refresh cadence (POS frequency), seat count, and integration channel
  (Snowflake, BigQuery, Databricks, BYO cloud). All commercial engagements are managed through
  Circana sales / account teams.
notes: No public pricing page is available. Commercial terms are negotiated per client.
