Let’s be honest: building a complete, high-quality product catalog for an online store isn’t rocket science – but it is painfully slow, manual, and repetitive. Writing product descriptions, cleaning up spec sheets, hunting for images, and assigning categories by hand is the tedious busywork no ecommerce team enjoys. Every delay in publishing new products means lost visibility, lower SEO rankings, and fewer sales. Can’t someone else do it? Yes. Introducing Semantico’s new AI Product Catalog Builder – a bold new platform that takes you from a single product reference to a publish-ready listing in a matter of minutes.
From Reference to Rich Listing – Automatically
With the AI Product Catalog Builder, all you need to kick off a new product listing is a product reference (SKU, EAN, etc.) and a brand name or model name – nothing more. No massive spreadsheets or complicated templates. Just plug in the basics and hit Add Product.
Semantico’s add-product form (shown below) makes this easy: you enter a SKU or barcode and the brand, and you’re basically done. Optionally, you can paste a couple of URLs (manufacturer pages, product manuals) for more context – or even upload a CSV file of multiple SKUs to generate dozens of listings at once. Either way, one click and you’re off.
The minimal “Add Product” form in Semantico’s dashboard: just a product name/brand and a reference (SKU/UPC) are enough to get started. You can even batch multiple products via CSV for scale. No extensive data entry needed – the AI handles the heavy lifting from here.
What happens next is where the real magic begins. The AI Catalog Builder springs into action by crawling the web for your product’s data. It intelligently searches trusted sources – manufacturer websites, official brand pages, ecommerce listings, PDFs, you name it – to gather everything it can about that SKU. We’re talking technical specs, product dimensions, feature lists, high-res images, descriptions, even user manuals if available. All this raw content is then validated and cleaned by our AI. No copy-paste chaos or outdated info – the system checks and cross-verifies facts so the content is accurate and ready for use.
AI-Generated Content in Your Brand’s Voice
Once the data is in hand, the AI Product Catalog Builder gets to work writing your product copy. This isn’t generic lorem ipsum or a direct scrape from elsewhere – our AI actually understands the product and crafts original text for you. It generates a compelling product name/title, a clear and concise description, and even SEO meta tags or blocks to help that product get discovered online. Everything is written in a consistent tone that you can configure to match your brand’s voice – playful, professional, technical, you decide. The result reads like a human marketer wrote it, but it’s ready in seconds. No more blank product pages or “SEO dead zones” – every listing comes with rich, keyword-friendly content out of the box.
To give you an idea, if you popped in a reference code and “Bosch” as the brand for a new kitchen appliance, Semantico’s AI would instantly return a product title like “Bosch Series 6 203×70cm Freestanding Fridge – Black” with a descriptive summary highlighting its key features and benefits. It’s all done for you – no manual copywriting needed.
Automatic Attribute Detection and Cleanup
Anyone who’s managed a catalog knows the pain of messy attributes: differing units, inconsistent names, missing specs. Our AI Product Catalog Builder solves this by automatically extracting product attributes and normalizing them. It parses the technical specs from the sources (dimensions, materials, power, compatibility – whatever is relevant) and presents them as clean, standardized attributes. Units are converted where needed and terminology is kept consistent (e.g., “inch” vs “in” or “CM” vs “cm”) for smooth filtering. This means your facet filters and comparison tables will work perfectly without you lifting a finger. All those granular details – size, weight, color, voltage, memory capacity, and so on – appear neatly in the listing, already formatted for easy reading and searching. No more manual data entry or cleanup in spreadsheets.
Categories Sorted (No More Misfiling Products)
Never worry about miscategorizing a product again. The AI builder automatically assigns each product to the correct category based on its specs and description. It understands whether that new SKU is a “Running Shoes > Men’s Footwear” or “Home & Garden > Kitchen Appliances” and tags it accordingly. Semantico leverages known taxonomies – including Shopify’s public product category tree – to ensure categories are accurate and industry-standard. If you have a custom category schema, it can work with that too. The bottom line: your product ends up exactly where it should in your catalog navigation, with zero effort from your team. Proper categorization not only keeps your site organized, but it also helps with SEO and even tax settings if you’re using something like Shopify’s standard product taxonomy. It’s all handled automatically, so you won’t see new items languishing as “Uncategorized” or in the wrong spot.
AI-Suggested Pricing – Original and Discounted
Pricing a new product can involve a lot of guesswork and market research. Semantico’s AI Product Catalog Builder gives you a head start by suggesting smart prices for each new product. Drawing on market data and similar items, the system might recommend, for example, a base price of $199.99 and even propose a competitive discount price (say, $179.99) to help you attract buyers while preserving margin. These AI-driven price suggestions help you maximize margins and stay competitive. Of course, you remain in control – you can review or adjust the suggested prices before publishing – but having an instant baseline saves time and ensures you’re not wildly off the mark. In short, you’ll never launch a product with a blank price field or a poorly researched price. The builder does the heavy lifting, so pricing strategy becomes a quick review task rather than a deep research project.
High-Quality Images, Validated by AI
What about product images? The AI builder has you covered there as well. It will find relevant product images (from the manufacturer site or other credible sources) and filter out any that aren’t up to standard. Low-resolution, watermarked, or unrelated images get thrown out automatically – only clean, high-resolution images that truly show your product make the cut. Our Large Language Model (LLM) vision checks even help confirm that the images match the product (so you don’t accidentally attach a wrong color or a different model by mistake). Think of it as having a meticulous photo editor on your team, instantly selecting and validating the best visuals. You’ll see a gallery of product photos ready to go, often including multiple angles or close-ups, without spending hours in Google Images or supplier portals. No more image hunting, no more worries about image quality – it’s essentially one-click and done.
If you’re curious how it works behind the scenes: the AI looks for official images (for example, that Bosch fridge’s promo photos), compares them against the product description to ensure relevance, and even uses AI vision to detect things like if the product is centered, well-lit, and free of oddities. The result is a set of images you can trust for your storefront.
Optional Sections Tailored to Each Product
Every product category has its quirks – and Semantico knows that. The AI Product Catalog Builder can include optional content sections in the listing, tailored to the product type. For instance, a technical gadget might come with a “Specifications” section or a comparison table of features; a piece of apparel might have a “Size Guide”; a food item might include an “Ingredients & Nutritional Info” section. These sections are generated or formatted automatically based on what kind of product it is, ensuring shoppers get all the info they need. In the Semantico interface, these appear under a Sections tab for the product, where you can preview and tweak them if needed before publishing. This means your listings are not one-size-fits-all – they’re intelligently enriched with the exact sections that make sense for that product category. Rich content like this keeps customers engaged and informed, leading to more confident purchases.
See Your New Listing – Before You Hit Publish
One of the most satisfying parts of using the AI Catalog Builder is seeing the final result come together instantly. The platform provides a preview of your product listing as it would appear on your storefront. In this preview mode, you’ll see the product title, images, price, description, attributes, and any extra sections laid out just like a live product page. It’s a complete, polished draft of your listing ready to go. You can flip through the images, check the formatting of the description and bullet points, verify the specs, and even see how the SEO snippet might look. If something needs a quick edit, you can do that on the spot – but more often than not, you’ll be looking at a listing that’s essentially ready to publish.
A preview of an AI-generated product listing in Semantico’s builder. From the product title and high-res images to the bullet-point details and category tags, everything is assembled for you. The result is a professional, storefront-ready product page – created in seconds.
This instant preview gives you confidence. No more publishing something and checking the website only to realize a detail is missing. With Semantico, what you see is what you’ll get on your live site, so you can polish and perfect every element before pushing it out.
From Hours to Minutes – Catalog Work at Scale
The impact on your workflow is game-changing. What used to take hours (or days) of manual effort per product now takes just minutes. The AI Product Catalog Builder eliminates the need for you to do painstaking copywriting, spec formatting, image sourcing, and SEO tweaking by hand – it’s all generated for you, nearly instantly. That means faster time-to-market for new products. You can go from a simple reference number to a publish-ready product listing in the same afternoon, with confidence that it’s complete and optimized.
For ecommerce teams, this solves real pain points. Got a catalog of 500 SKUs from a supplier that needs to go live? Import them via CSV, let the AI handle the heavy lifting in bulk, and you can have the entire assortment online in a fraction of the time it would normally take. No more bottlenecks because content or images aren’t ready – Semantico ensures every listing is enriched with the content customers and search engines love. This means no more “SEO dead zones” where a product sits unoptimized on your site. And because the process is so fast, you won’t be holding back on publishing new items – fewer delays equal less lost revenue.
Crucially, this is not just about speed – it’s about quality at scale. The AI produces listings that feel hand-crafted, maintaining consistency and accuracy even if you’re generating hundreds of them. You can focus your team’s energy on strategic work (like merchandising and marketing campaigns) instead of drowning in catalog upkeep. As the Semantico team puts it, “Your product reference goes in, your product listing comes out”, with no manual work or errors – just instant, optimized listings. It’s as simple as that.
Energetic, bold, and benefit-focused, Semantico’s AI Product Catalog Builder is the modern solution to an old problem. It’s clarity and automation rolled into one powerful workflow that turns tedious tasks into a swift, automated process. If you’re ready to eliminate the catalog chaos and start scaling your listings smarter and faster, now’s the time to give this a try.
