FAQ
Common questions
How quickly can we get started?
Most customers have their first PCFs calculated within 24–48 hours of signing up. Onboarding takes minutes, not weeks — and we handle the data import for you.
How many SKUs can we calculate?
There is no limit. Zilch is built for large promotional catalogues with hundreds or thousands of SKUs. Pricing is flat — not per product.
Is the methodology audit-ready?
Yes. Zilch uses an ISO 14067-aligned methodology, so your PCFs hold up in tenders, procurement portals, and formal compliance audits.
How does it connect to our PIM or catalogue?
Zilch integrates via REST API and structured CSV export, with direct connections to major PIM systems and B2B catalogue platforms. If you have a custom stack, the API covers you.
What does it cost compared to a consultant?
Zilch is a flat monthly subscription covering your whole catalogue. A consultant billing $500–$2,000 per SKU on a 200-SKU project costs more than years of Zilch — and doesn't include live integrations or ongoing updates.
What happens when a product changes?
Zilch auto-recalculates PCFs whenever the underlying product data changes. No new engagement, no manual updates — your catalogue data stays current automatically.
