FAQ

We analyze publicly accessible product pages of your shop - titles, descriptions, images, prices, structured data (schema.org), SEO tags and technical aspects. We only access public pages that Google can see too.

Data quality is one thing. The effort behind it is another.

Your shop has the quality. The next question is how much work sits behind it - and how much of it can be automated away. FlowCraftDB delivers the same quality with ~2 fewer full-time roles - and onboards new suppliers in hours instead of weeks.

20 minutes. On your real supplier file. No strings attached.
