Automated product data collection from suppliers
Stop spending hours manually copying product descriptions, images and titles from supplier websites. We automate the entire process — from identifying the right product to downloading all associated content — structured and ready to import into your PIM system or online store.
See how automated product data collection works in practice
This solution is built for e-commerce businesses and resellers that regularly need product descriptions, images and specifications from their suppliers — but lack an efficient way to obtain them. Instead of copying text and downloading images one product at a time, we automate the entire workflow, from the supplier’s website or portal to ready-to-use product data in your systems.
Suppliers often lack a practical way to share product content
Many suppliers and distributors have product descriptions, images and specifications available on their websites — but no convenient way to deliver them to their resellers. They have given permission for the content to be used, yet expect customers to copy everything manually. This means someone on your team needs to visit each individual product page, copy the text and download the images — a time-consuming and tedious process.
- Suppliers approve the use of their content but offer no export functionality
- Product information must be retrieved one product at a time — manually
- Images, descriptions and specifications are scattered across the supplier’s website
- Your range may consist of hundreds or thousands of products, all requiring the same treatment
We collect product data directly from supplier pages — at scale
Our solution automatically identifies the correct product page on the supplier’s website based on article numbers, EAN codes or other product identifiers you already have in your product lists. All relevant information is collected and structured per product, ready for direct import.
- Automatic matching against supplier product pages using your article codes
- Collects descriptions, titles, images and specifications
- Structures everything per product in ready-made folders
- Works with both websites and supplier portals
What is the practical impact?
When product information is collected automatically rather than manually, time is freed up for more valuable work — while quality and consistency improve.
- Hours of manual copying eliminated every week
- Reduced risk of incorrect text or mismatched images
- Easier to keep product data up to date when supplier content changes
- Faster time to publish new products in your online store
- More time for sales, customer service and other core activities
A more cost-effective way to manage supplier data
| Method | Cost | Time investment |
|---|---|---|
| Manually (copy product by product) | Nothing | High |
| We build a solution — you run it yourself | From SEK 3 500 (one-time cost) | Minimal |
| We build a solution — we run it for you | From SEK 3 500 + 2 000 | No effort required |
The difference becomes especially clear the more products you work with. One of our clients previously spent several hours every week manually copying product information — now they receive everything ready and organised, prepared for immediate use.
When is this solution the best fit?
Automated product data collection is particularly well suited for businesses that:
- Receive product lists from suppliers without accompanying descriptions or images
- Have permission to use the supplier’s content but are expected to copy it manually
- Work with large assortments where manual handling is not sustainable
- Need to collect product data from supplier portals or distributor websites
- Want to keep product information updated on an ongoing basis without manual effort
