Catsy

Open Catsy, pick the catalog you’re working on, and choose the channels you plan to update today. Import items from your ERP, a spreadsheet, or an API, then standardize attributes with templates. Set required fields, create variant families, and apply units and formatting rules so specs stay consistent. Drag in images, videos, and PDFs from the asset library and link them to products in bulk. Use bulk edit, find-and-replace, and calculated fields to normalize titles, bullets, and technical data. When a product hits your completeness target, move it to Ready so the team knows it can ship to channels.\n\nNext, configure each destination with a profile that captures retailer requirements. Map your internal fields to the retailer’s accepted attributes, then run validations to catch gaps like missing dimensions, low-resolution images, or noncompliant titles. Preview the listing exactly as the merchant expects, and auto-correct formatting with rules (e.g., convert inches to millimeters, enforce title casing, trim excess characters). Choose delivery: export a retailer-specific sheet, push via API, or schedule nightly deltas so only changes are sent. For international markets, copy a profile, localize language and units, and keep regional pricing isolated. Track every publish with a changelog so you can roll back or compare versions when needed.\n\nFor sales and customers, spin up a searchable product portal without asking IT. Build dynamic collections by brand, category, or attribute filters, then share secure links that always reflect the latest data. Reps can assemble a mini-catalog for a buyer, download spec sheets and media kits, or create a quote-ready PDF in a few clicks. Marketing can embed the catalog on your site, generate QR codes for events, and provide dealers with always-current content and assets. Set permissions so partners see approved materials only, and use expiring links when launches are under embargo.\n\nKeep the engine running with automation and oversight. Trigger tasks when a product misses a rule, assign ownership for copy, specs, or imagery, and require approvals before release. Measure channel readiness, content completeness, and error rates from dashboards, then drill into problem SKUs. Use webhooks or the API to update downstream systems when status changes. If you need more flexibility than a template allows, layer in calculated attributes or channel-specific rules to tailor output without altering your core model. When the app feels busy, batch large exports, throttle image renditions, and let scheduled jobs run after hours. With repeatable workflows, clear governance, and actionable reporting, your team publishes faster and fixes issues before they reach the storefront.
