Step 1: Discovery
We review your vendor formats, PXM schema, quality rules and current onboarding effort.
Automate Vendor Product Data Onboarding
Turn vendor chaos into revenue with AI-powered vendor data ingestion
GSPANN's Vendor Data Ingestion (VDI) is a GenAI accelerator that maps, validates and enriches vendor product content, then publishes it into Salsify, Syndigo or Akeneo as complete, channel-ready listings.
Retailers, distributors and manufacturers onboard product data from hundreds of vendors, each sending a different format on a different schedule. Merchandising and PXM teams have to work manually sometimes for weeks to align them with current PXM systems. GSPANN's VDI automates that work.
KEY CAPABILITIES
Key Capabilities
Vendor Data Ingestion (VDI) covers the full path from vendor file to published listing, built for teams managing large, supplier-fed catalogs.
Data Mapping
VDI maps vendor data in any format to your PXM data model, including unstructured and semi-structured sources. It auto-maps vendor attributes to your category taxonomy and generates standardized, import-ready files.
Data Validation
VDI checks every record for missing data and incomplete attributes before it reaches your PXM. It detects and heals format and unit inconsistencies, and runs image quality and resolution checks on vendor imagery.
Product Data Enrichment
VDI completes missing attributes from vendor spec sheets and product pages, then personalizes content by channel and audience. Your SEO keywords and brand voice rules are applied as the content is built.
Content Generation
VDI writes marketing copy at catalog scale, covering product descriptions, bullets and feature lists. Your brand voice rules and each channel's copy requirements are applied at generation, so copy does not need a rewrite before it publishes.
Channel Publishing
VDI syndicates verified content across every channel from Salsify, Syndigo or Akeneo. Product content, SEO, taxonomy and personalization rules publish together as one governed record.
Human-in-the-Loop Governance
VDI routes exceptions to a review queue with full context attached, so your team approves what the model could not resolve. Governance rules and audit trails are configured to your taxonomy and brand standards.
