Why food and beverage brands love Upsiide
Industry expertise
​Across thousands of studies, we’ve developed templates and analytical techniques to screen and optimize every kind of product innovation (new brands, new variants, new flavors, new claims, new packaging, new communications, etc.). And these templates can be customized to address your unique needs.Â
Big portfolio? Big deal.
Upsiide allows you to test up to 50 ideas in a single study. And we don’t charge per idea – the combination of ideas is up to you. So you can include competitors to identify opportunities to steal share and include your existing items to identify opportunities for incremental growth.

AI = brainstorm buddy
An AI idea generator is built into Upsiide. You can ask it to generate ideas in any category, seed it with ideas that have worked well in the past, or even provide direction on the trends you are hoping to address. All of your prompts and the resulting ideas remain confidential within our walled garden and do not become part of any AI training data.
Incrementality and cannibalization
Our patented Market Simulator automatically models Upsiide data, translating it into forecasts of share of choice, source of volume, incrementality and cannibalization. So you launch innovations that grow your business.

CASE STUDY
How Coca-Cola uses Upsiide to reinvent early-stage innovation
Coca-Cola uses Upsiide as their global gate zero testing protocol.
For a recent project for Coca-Cola centred around coffee innovation, the Global Director of Human Insights wanted to spearhead a new approach to innovation sprints. This was in order to get to the best innovation ideas and empower all 4 business units involved (USA, UK, Japan, and China) with marching orders.
“Instead of wasting another 6 months of productivity, which would have cost us a million dollars, we saved 6 months of back and forth.
And stakeholders saw $$$ in their eyeballs. You’re only as good as the decisions that get made. As an insights person, I was able to add so much value to the business and insert myself into the most important strategic innovation decisions.”
