Sports and outdoor

Winter jackets that go live late end up on sale.

Cernel reads the specs in supplier files and on brand pages into your filters, so the whole range is live before the weather turns.

Launch products go first. The rest of the range waits offline.

  • The season has a start date

    Products with a launch date jump the queue. The rest of the range waits offline for weeks while someone types in the specs, and gear that misses its weeks ends up discounted.

    An automation enriches each product as it arrives, so the whole range is ready, not only the launches.

  • The numbers sit in prose

    Waterproof rating, weight and comfort temperature sit in a description, a PDF spec sheet or the brand's own page. None of it filters, so none of it compares.

    Agents read each figure into a field of its own, in fixed units, from your supplier files and the brands' published product pages.

  • A wrong spec comes back

    A guessed temperature rating is a product that fails on the mountain. On bulky gear, a return costs twice.

    Technical fields are only filled from a source that states them, and you choose which values a person sees first.

  • Brand terms do not translate word for word

    Model names, sport terms and size charts get mangled when every market is rewritten by hand or run through a generic tool.

    Each language gets its own instructions, and model names and sport terms stay exactly as the brand wrote them.

Blank beats wrong

A guessed rating comes back. So Cernel does not guess.

A wrong waterproof rating is worse than an empty one. Technical fields stay empty when no source states them. You choose which values go live automatically and which get a review step; review steps check every value and only ask a person when something fails or needs a decision.

Example product.

Every market

One size chart from the brand. A size guide in every language you sell in.

Run through a generic tool, model names get translated and sport terms lose their meaning. An agent writes the copy and the size guide in each of your languages, by that language's own rules, and keeps model names and sport terms as they are.

How it works

From the brand's spec to your filters. What happens to one season's range.

Cernel works next to the systems you already have. Blue is an agent at work, yellow is your team deciding, green is done.

  1. 01Comes in

    The range comes in

    Products arrive from your PIM or shop as they are created, or in a supplier's file. Rows about the same product match on GTIN, EAN or SKU.

  2. 02An agent works

    Sorted into categories

    Every product is classified, so each kind gets its own fields: waterproof rating on shells, comfort temperature on sleeping bags, drop on running shoes.

  3. 03An agent works

    One agent per field

    Agents read your data, the photos and the brand's published product page, matched by GTIN or SKU. Figures land in fixed units; what no source states stays empty.

  4. 04Your team decides

    Checked where it matters

    You choose which values go live automatically and which get a review step; review steps check every value and only ask a person when something fails or needs a decision.

  5. 05Done

    Back to your shop

    Approved values go back to your PIM or shop in every language you sell in, or out as an export or a Google Shopping feed.

FAQ

Questions outdoor retailers ask us.

  • The specs sit with the brands. Can Cernel get them?

    Yes. Most brands publish their figures on their product pages, and an agent reads them there, matched by GTIN or SKU, on the sites you allow. Figures you already hold come in with your supplier files.

  • Can every product type get its own fields?

    Yes. Fields sit on categories, so shells get a waterproof rating, sleeping bags a comfort temperature and running shoes a drop. Subcategories inherit what sits above them, and each kind of product only shows the fields that belong to it.

  • What happens when a brand doesn't publish a figure?

    The field stays empty. Technical fields are set up so the agent leaves a value out when no source states it. You choose which values go live automatically and which get a review step; review steps check every value and only ask a person when something fails or needs a decision. A blank field can be filled later. A wrong waterproof rating comes back as a return.

  • We stock 18,000 items across ten sports. Where do we start?

    With one category and one field. Test it on a handful of your own products, enrich a few hundred, read the results, then widen.

  • Can it run on the whole range as it arrives each season?

    Yes. An automation enriches every new product in the categories you choose, and can run again when the attributes you pick are updated, so the next season arrives as a review queue, not a project.

Bring one category from next season.

Send us a supplier file for one category and see every rating, weight and temperature come back as a field, with the reasoning behind each value.
