Shopify Catalogue Agent

Photos and a sheet in. Products live in your store.

An agent that turns your product photos and price sheet into complete Shopify products — titles, descriptions, variants, images, collections, tags — created as drafts for your approval, then kept in sync every month. Connected through the official Shopify API. Built for one store: yours.

Not another importer

Same engine. Your catalogue rules.

A bulk-upload app moves rows. It does not know what your products are, how you name them, or which collection they belong in — so you fill the sheet, you fix the errors, and you rewrite the copy anyway. We run one engine and build the catalogue around one store at a time.

A bulk-upload app

  • You fill the CSV in its format; it only posts what you typed
  • You fix every error the import throws back, row by row
  • Generic descriptions, identical for every store using the app
  • No idea of your naming rules or your collection logic
  • A missing field becomes a blank product page — or a guess

Your Shopify Catalogue Agent

  • Written from your sheet and your photos — nothing invented
  • Your tone and your naming rules, taken from a written questionnaire
  • Your collection logic — season, fabric, style code, whatever you use
  • Images matched to the right variant, not dumped on the product
  • Missing facts are flagged “confirm” and asked, never guessed
What it does

From a folder and a spreadsheet to a finished store.

Titles & descriptions

Written from the facts in your sheet, in your tone — any language, mixed or not.

Variants

Size, colour, material combinations built out with their own prices and SKUs.

Image-to-variant matching

The blue photo lands on the blue variant, from your file names and folder structure.

Collections & tags

Products filed into your collections by your rules, tagged so filters actually work.

SEO fields

Meta title, meta description and clean handles filled for every product.

Price & stock updates

Your sheet changes, the store follows — on the schedule you set.

Duplicate & missing-photo flags

Repeated style codes, products with no usable image, sizes with no price — listed, not silently filled.

Monthly new-batch runs

Next season’s photos and sheet go through the same pipeline, same rules.

Operations

Keeps your files in order.

The catalogue is half the job. The other half is the folder of photos nobody can find and the four exports that never agree. That housekeeping is part of the Sync plan, not an extra.

Excel exports

Your store’s sheet in its current template, plus a master export marking every product built, flagged or live.

Organised image folders

Images renamed and filed by style code, then colour, then rendition — hosted with stable links, and the organised folder handed back to you.

Inventory & orders read

Read directly from Shopify through its API. Where you also sell somewhere without one, you drop the seller-panel report in a folder and the agent reads that instead.

One daily sheet

Stock, orders and returns in one view. Stock updates are pushed back directly where an API exists, and delivered as an upload-ready sheet where it does not.

Reading orders never means handling payments or returns. Your store admin and any seller panels stay yours — we read, organise and report.

How it's built for you

Connected, configured, then in sync.

01 · Connect

You create a custom app inside your own Shopify admin with the permissions we list — scoped, revocable, no password ever shared.

02 · Written questionnaire

Naming rules, tone, collection logic, what must be flagged rather than guessed. Once, in writing.

03 · Built as drafts

Your first batch is built end to end and created as draft products. Nothing is visible to a customer yet.

04 · You approve, we publish

One revision round, then publish. After that the monthly sync keeps prices, stock and new batches current.

Guardrails

A catalogue that invents things is worse than an empty one.

Wrong fabric, invented sizes and a price nobody approved cost more to undo than to do. The agent is scoped narrow, and it says so when it does not know.

Drafts until approved

Products are created as drafts. Publishing is your decision, every time.

Nothing invented

A fact that is not in your sheet or your photos is flagged “confirm” and waits for you.

Every action logged

Per-product record of what was written, what changed, and who approved it.

Scoped access, revocable

A custom app in your own admin with the narrowest permissions that work. You can revoke it in one click.

No sales or ranking promises

We report what was built, flagged and published — not numbers we do not control.

Your data stays yours

Sheets, photos and the organised folders come back to you. Nothing is reused for anyone else.

Optional add-on

Vision check. Photos read against your sheet.

Every photo is cross-checked against the row it belongs to — colour against colour code, product type against category, plus blurry, duplicate, low-resolution and missing images. You get a flag list you can work through in an afternoon.

It never overrides your data and never edits a product on its own. If the photo and the sheet disagree, the sheet stands and the row is flagged for you.

Pricing

Built once. Kept current.

The build is your catalogue done properly, in drafts, with one revision round. The monthly plan keeps prices, stock, new batches and your file structure current. Shopify’s own plan and any app fees stay on your account and are stated in the proposal.

Questions

Before you ask.

Does it need my Shopify password?

No. You create a custom app inside your own Shopify admin in a few minutes and grant only the permissions we list — we send the exact steps in writing. You can see what it did and revoke access from your own admin at any time.

Will it publish products without asking?

No. Everything is created as a draft. You review the drafts, we do one revision round, and publishing happens only after you say so.

What if my sheet is missing the fabric or a size?

That row is flagged “confirm” and left for you. The agent never invents a fabric, a measurement, a care instruction or a price to fill a gap.

Can it write in my style, or in a mix of languages?

Yes. We take your tone and naming rules from a written questionnaire and from products you have already written, and it writes in any language — mixed or not — the way your customers read.

Do you do photography?

No. You supply the photos; we organise, rename, resize and match them, and we flag the ones that will not work — too small, duplicated, or missing entirely.

Does it update prices and stock later?

Yes, on the Catalogue Sync plan. Your sheet stays the source of truth: it changes, the store follows, and every change is logged per product.

I also sell on Amazon and Flipkart. Same agent?

Same catalogue, a different delivery. The Marketplace Catalogue Agent takes the same product data and prepares each marketplace’s listing the way that marketplace wants it — direct where an API exists, upload-ready everywhere else.

Send a few product photos and your sheet. We’ll return the drafts.

No call, no demo booking. Within one business day you get sample products built from your own data, the price for the full batch, and the date it could be in your store.
