BASED ON A REAL PROJECT
From business data
to everyday decisions.
We brought analytics, a corporate AI assistant and product content together for a bakery chain and manufacturer. These solutions can be adapted to your business processes.
ONE PROJECT · THREE AREAS
Data working for the whole team
Management sees the bigger picture, employees ask questions in everyday language, and products get a consistent look for the marketplace.

04 / PRODUCT CONTENT
From a product photo to a consistent set of listings
We built a workflow for product content: source material, image preparation, a shared template and review. Template changes can be applied across the whole set.
- 01
Source material
Photos, descriptions and specifications of the actual product.
- 02
Image preparation
Preparing images and presentation variants.
- 03
Design
A shared style, layout and product information.
- 04
Review
Checking copy, specifications and visual results.
- 05
Ready content
An approved set prepared for marketplace publication.
ACTUAL EXAMPLES FROM THE PROJECT

The next stage: publication and promotion
The roadmap includes uploading approved cards through the Seller API, competitor analysis, advertising and review management. The fully automated cycle is a separate development stage from content preparation.
05 / BUSINESS IMPACT
Time saved becomes a resource for sales, product costing and purchasing
When reports arrive automatically, the team can focus on clients, negotiations, suppliers and management decisions.
≈ 20 h
per month
For clients and deals
One employee in a commercial role spent around an hour each working day consolidating reports. Automatic reporting frees that resource for negotiations, the team and clients.
An estimate for one commercial role in the original project.
up to 60%
of time previously spent on reports
Capacity for economic tasks
This was the team's estimate of economists' original reporting workload. Some reports are now prepared automatically, freeing time for purchasing and other economic processes.
An estimate of the team's original workload; automation in this area is partially implemented.
Direct answers for management
The assistant uses company data, removing the need to pass a question between employees and wait for a manual summary.
Clear product costing
Ingredients and costs can be analysed by product, and gross profit by sales channel and product group.
Data-informed purchasing
Raw-material cost changes and supply shortfalls are visible, giving the team a factual basis for supplier discussions and purchasing plans.
One change across the set
Shared template changes apply to the whole set of product cards, with content reviewed before publication.
