Guide to Showpad Value Factory Updated October 07, 2026 07:00 Note: Showpad Value Factory will be available as an add-on, starting October 28, 2026. Showpad Value Factory is a value enablement app built on the Showpad platform that lets teams create assets such as calculators and assessments. Value is defined in the Value Factory portal and activated everywhere sellers operate: in Showpad Experiences, alongside content in the Asset Viewer, and in Shared Spaces with prospects. As an administrator, you control who can access the app, what value models are available to sellers, and how it connects to your Showpad organization. For example, a seller meeting with a manufacturing prospect can open a value model directly from a product brochure in Showpad. They enter the prospect's current headcount, hours spent on manual processes, and average labor costs. Value Factory calculates the projected savings in time and labor costs and generates a branded report the seller can share on the spot. Showpad Value Factory is configured across two environments: Value Factory: Environment for administrator accounts, branding, value models, report templates, and AI settings Showpad: In the Admin Extension for connecting the app to your Showpad organization and controlling value model visibility See how it looks Key features Value models with discovery questions, inputs, formulas, and report templates Organization and per-model branding Salesforce and HubSpot integration Single Sign-On and Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) AI-assisted value conversations for sellers Offline access for field sellers You need this to succeed Plan: eOS Expert, eOS Advanced Legacy plan: Showpad Platform Enterprise Add-on: Value, Value+ Permissions: Administrator Prerequisites: A Value Factory admin account What's on the menu Configuration and working in Value Factory Settings Set up your organization profile, users, branding, AI access, and security before building value models.
