What You Get

From signal to advantage

Product Intelligence turns raw market data into decisions you can act on, at the speed the market now moves.

✓

Exact, variant, and similar product matching at high precision.

✓

Unit-based price benchmarking built on truly comparable, normalized products.

✓

The trusted data foundation beneath every price, assortment, and benchmarking decision.

The Hard Cases

Built for the matches others miss

Matching is trivial when every product carries a clean identifier and a complete spec sheet. A great deal of the shelf doesn’t. Sherlock AI is built for the rest.

✓

Catalogs that carry no UPC or GTIN at all, leaving conventional matching nothing to key on

✓

Engines that decide a match from a product title and a hero image, and little else

✓

Entire categories such as fashion, home and beauty, where unique identifiers were never assigned in the first place

✓

Specs that disagree by a shade, a size or a count, on listings that were only half-filled to begin with

✓

Every retailer naming the same item its own way, so genuine matches are never surfaced

✓

Own-brand and unbranded lines with no branded equivalent to search against, a growing share of the shelf

✓

A single product listed by a dozen sellers under a dozen names, each one reading as a separate item

The Engine

Sherlock AI

High precision and high recall, at scale, continuously. Sherlock assembles comparable products from real-time crawls and our own databases, reads them across images and product detail, and decides each match. Sherlock does the heavy lifting; people sharpen it and handle the edge cases.

Match Types

Three types of matches

Not every comparison is the same question. Sherlock resolves three, and keeps them distinct.

Exact

The identical product, the same variant in every respect. Change the capacity, the color, the generation or the offer, and it is a different variant, not an exact match.

Variant

The same product in a different quantity or color, and nothing more. A pack of one against a pack of two; 12 fl oz against 16; the same item in a new color.

Similar

A different product that does the same job: the one a shopper would treat as a true alternative. Most often used for private label, where an exact match usually doesn’t exist.

Signals

No single spec decides a match

For a similar, Sherlock weighs every available signal at once, structured and unstructured, rather than keying off one attribute or a rigid rule.

Product copy is routinely incomplete and inconsistent, so no single spec is reliable. Combining signals is what makes the match dependable, and the model behind it is refined on retail data collected since 2012 and thousands of real customer decisions.

Capabilities

Capabilities

Product Intelligence brings together the capabilities below: one layer of a single, unified platform.

01

Product Matching

Resolve your catalog against the market at scale, across retailers, marketplaces and regions.

02

Exact, Variant & Similar Matching

Three distinct match types, kept distinct, so a comparison answers the question you actually asked.

03

Unit-Based Price Benchmarking

Normalize to a common unit before comparing, so a multipack never reads as a price cut.

04

Private-Label Matching

Find the right comparable for own-brand products that have no branded equivalent to search against.

05

Confidence Scoring & Human Review

Every match carries a confidence level; the uncertain ones reach a person before they reach your data.

How We Work

You set the direction, we do the matching

You choose the comparable brand to target, whether a competitor’s private label or another you’d cross-shop, and you set the price threshold. Finding the right comparable products across all of those signals is our job. You are not left defining every spec that might matter; the model carries that judgement.
