SPOSEA's BrightPrice is a web-based B2B pricing suite for SAP customers. It covers price optimization and management, deal workflows, analytics, and customer rebates.

The suite is natively integrated with SAP ERP and SAP Sales Cloud, with out-of-the-box integration described for SAP ECC and S/4HANA. SPOSEA says the service runs on SAP BTP, with HTTPS encryption in transit, database encryption at rest, and a secure SSL tunnel for system communications.
