Supplier spreadsheet, PDF price list, whatever arrived. No cleanup needed on your side.
Titles, formats and units normalized. Duplicates removed. Price and spec changes flagged against your last version.
An import-ready file, a change log, and a source link for every row. You review exceptions before anything touches your store.
Nothing is invented. Dimensions, prices and specs come from your supplier's documents, never generated. If a value is missing, it gets flagged for you, not filled with a guess. Your original files and a full edit log stay with every job.
A real look at the work before you send anything.

The full sample is 25 records with a change log and a source link on every row. It uses a public-domain ebook catalog, and we staged the messy input ourselves, so it shows how the repair works, not a real client's data. Anything we could not confirm from the source (ISBN, stock, cost, rights outside the US) is listed as unknown, not filled in.
