How Retailers Can Reduce Manual Work in Product Data Onboarding
Retailers waste countless hours fixing supplier data—cleaning spreadsheets, chasing missing fields, standardizing categories. This slows down launch cycles and burns out merchandising and ops teams.
SKULaunch automates the entire onboarding process using AI—from initial ingestion through to mapping, validation, and enrichment—eliminating tedious manual work.
Typical Challenges
Every File Looks Different
Suppliers send data in inconsistent formats, making standardization a time-consuming, manual process.
Data Cleanup Is Repetitive and Unscalable
Your team spends hours fixing units, formatting names, and adding missing descriptions—again and again.
Manual Work Creates Launch Bottlenecks
The more SKUs you onboard, the more time you spend processing instead of selling.
