WEBCATALOGUE
Product evidence, brought into a reviewed workflow.
WebCatalogue turns fragmented product evidence into a record a person can assess before it is published or used by another system.
01 — IDENTIFY
Start with evidence that can be checked.
A product may arrive with a supplier reference, GTIN, MPN, document or image. WebCatalogue uses deterministic identifiers first because they are traceable and explainable. The workflow makes it clear which source matched the record and which fields still need attention.
Instead of treating an incoming feed as a finished catalogue, the workflow begins with the evidence behind each claim: supplier references, identifiers, documents and images. This makes it possible to see what is known, what is inferred and what still needs a decision.
Working from evidence also makes correction practical. A record can be traced back to its source when a reference changes, a document is replaced or a question is raised by an operator.
02 — EXTRACT
Make documents usable without hiding their source.
OCR turns text held in documents and images into material that can be searched and reviewed. The document remains attached to the process, so extracted values can be checked against their original evidence instead of being treated as an unexplained result.
Documents often contain the detail that a product feed omits: technical attributes, packaging information, compatibility notes and manufacturer references. Extraction turns that material into usable fields while keeping the originating document available for review.
The aim is not to flatten every document into a claim of certainty. It is to make relevant information easier to locate, compare and verify in the context where the product record is being prepared.
03 — COMPARE
Use visual evidence when identifiers are incomplete.
Where a reference is missing or inconsistent, visual analysis and perceptual comparison can help narrow candidate products. It supports identification; it does not silently replace a verified match.
Product images can support the review when identifiers are partial, repeated or inconsistent across sources. They help a team distinguish variants, recognise duplicated material and identify when apparently similar records need further attention.
Visual comparison is a supporting signal, not a substitute for evidence. It is most useful when read alongside references, documents and the operating knowledge of the person making the final decision.
04 — REVIEW
Keep publication as a responsible decision.
AI-assisted interpretation is used for the cases that remain uncertain after deterministic and visual evidence. A reviewer can inspect the sources, accept or correct the result, and only then allow the structured record to move into downstream operations.
A structured record becomes useful only when someone can decide whether it is ready for its intended use. Rules can highlight missing information and inconsistencies; they should not conceal the point at which judgment is still required.
WebCatalogue therefore keeps review close to publication. The outcome is a clearer path from source material to a usable product record, with uncertainty visible rather than silently discarded.
