mTab is a CPG market research and consumer insights platform. It turns category trackers, brand studies, concept tests and shopper data into decisions: Pulse monitors purchase drivers, claims, private-label activity, channel mix and product feedback by shopper segment, and tells each team what changed, why it matters and what to do next.

Decisions mTab supports in consumer goods

  • Which claims and formats to take into the innovation pipeline
  • How to respond when private label matches price or gains trial
  • Where to defend distribution as retailers reset categories
  • What the brand should say as value perception shifts
  • Which product or packaging issues to fix first

What Pulse monitors

  • Purchase drivers and claims
  • Brand health and trust
  • Private-label activity
  • Channel and retailer shifts
  • Concept and pack performance
  • Product and packaging feedback
  • Trial and repeat
  • Category conversation

Where signals get missed today

  • A shift in purchase drivers that changes which claim wins, visible only when the tracker is cut by age
  • A concept test and a tracker agreeing on pack size, read by different teams
  • Texture complaints clustering in the two regions that received new packaging first

What Pulse surfaces

Signals Pulse surfaces for consumer goods teams

Market Shift

Protein claims overtook low-sugar as the top purchase driver among younger shoppers

Why it matters

Purchase-reason importance shifted 4.4 points in two waves. Your core line carries neither claim.

What to do next: Brief innovation on a protein-forward variant and test the claim in the next concept round.

Research Finding

The concept test and the category tracker agree on the smaller pack size

Why it matters

Intent for the smaller pack is 9 points higher among single-person households, the fastest-growing shopper group.

What to do next: Synthesize both studies into one recommendation for the pack-architecture review.

Competitor

A private-label rival matched your price and gained 3.2 points of trial in value retailers

Why it matters

Trial moved; repeat is not yet visible. The next wave will show whether the switch sticks.

What to do next: Ask Pulse for the repeat cut next wave and brief sales on a value-channel response.
