The problem

Yesterday's CSV is tomorrow's bad decision.

Every retailer ends up running the same shadow pipeline. A nightly export for Google Shopping. A spreadsheet for an affiliate. A different mapping for a marketplace. Something breaks. Prices drift. A product gets discontinued and still shows up for a week.

In the AI age, that shadow pipeline becomes your weakest link. LLM assistants, shopping agents, and comparison engines answer with total confidence. If the data they see is a day behind, so is every booking, click, and recommendation.

The pipeline

One ingestion. Every destination.

01 / Connect

Bring any feed.

Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, custom API, XML, CSV, Google Sheets. The AI ingestion wizard auto-detects your schema and maps every field in one pass.

  • ·Platform connectors plus a clean REST API
  • ·Schema auto-detect, fields matched intelligently
  • ·Scheduled refresh, delta-level change detection
02 / Recipe

Shape every field.

Visual editor turns raw rows into a clean schema. Drag fields, concat, derive, replace, regex. Enforce currency, category, stock state. Preview against real rows, live.

  • ·Dedupe keys, change detection
  • ·Conditional logic, transforms, normalisation
  • ·Version-controlled per retailer
03 / Distribute

Every channel. Every shape.

Each publisher, each marketplace, each AI agent pulls the fields it needs in the format it expects. Push via CSV feed, webhook, or live API. One catalogue, many projections.

  • ·Google Shopping, Meta, TikTok, Amazon
  • ·Self-serve publisher dashboards
  • ·LLM-ready API with live freshness stamps
No feed? No wait.

Marketing moves. IT catches up.

Most retailers already have the product data. It's just locked inside the storefront, or scattered across PDFs and spreadsheets. Waiting on IT for a feed is the number one reason digital marketing misses quarter targets.

Merchand's team extracts high-quality, structured product data directly from your site. Titles, prices, stock, variants, images, categories, specs. You get a clean feed in days, and marketing can launch on every channel without blocking IT's roadmap.

  • ·Done-for-you setup, included on every plan.
  • ·Live, scheduled refresh once it's wired up.
  • ·Zero engineering work on your side.
  • ·Swap to a direct API feed any time. Nothing locks you in.

AI feed optimisation

Your feed, made smarter in one click.

Every product in your catalogue gets a full AI pass. Titles rewritten for search intent. Descriptions generated on brand voice. Categories auto-mapped to Google taxonomy. Attributes extracted from copy. Errors explained in plain English.

Titles

Rewritten for intent.

Grounded in your product data, not hallucinated. Brand-first, keyword-rich, benefit-led, or attribute-packed, your choice.

Descriptions

On-brand, at scale.

Generate clean, channel-ready copy for every product. Give it a voice sample and it stays consistent across thousands of items.

Categories

Auto-mapped taxonomies.

Google Product Category, custom_label slots, channel-specific schemas, filled in automatically, reviewable before they go live.

Attributes

Extracted from copy.

Colour, size, material, gender, age group, pulled out of title + description + specs. Structured fields appear where they should.

Feed audit

Health at a glance.

Missing GTINs, weak titles, bad image URLs, price anomalies. Every issue explained with the fix one click away.

Rule suggestions

Your data tells us what it needs.

AI watches patterns in your catalogue and suggests transforms: strip the supplier prefix from SKUs, normalise currency, backfill empty fields.

A/B experiments

Test every word. Promote what wins.

Run live title and description experiments per channel. Merchand generates variants, keyword-rich, brand-first, benefit-led, short-punchy, measures real click-through, and auto-promotes the winner.
