Mirakl Catalog Platform

Accelerate product onboarding and data quality across every supplier

Bring supplier product information together, automate catalog onboarding and enrich product data at scale no more manual work or endless emails.

The problem

Supplier data bottlenecks consume your team's time, create delays and data issues downstream

Manual data collection

With hundreds of suppliers and millions of SKUs, each sends product data by email, spreadsheet or online form, creating a manual tangle.

Slow onboarding

It often takes 1015 interactions and 25 hours per SKU just to launch a single product, driving up costs and delaying time to market.

Data errors

The average distributor faces 15,000 inaccurate product data issues a year, causing incomplete catalogs, low conversion, high returns and unhappy buyers.

"Speed to market means everything in business. It would take days to add a new SKU as we worked with our suppliers to get all the product information from them in the correct format. Now, all of the requirements are in the platform, ensuring the right data and format when suppliers import their products. As a result, a new product can be live in a single day."

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this replace our PIM?

A PIM manages your product content internally. It doesn't solve the upstream problem: getting clean data from suppliers in the first place. Automated catalog management sits before your PIM so supplier data arrives ready to use, not ready to be cleaned.

How much work does this create for our suppliers?

Less than you might expect. Suppliers submit in their existing format CSV, Excel, API or native file. A one-time setup maps it to your taxonomy automatically. Most are up and running in days. One Fortune 500 distributor found suppliers were asking for it before they'd even launched.

How quickly will we see results?

Most businesses see time savings within the first quarter. For one Fortune 500 distributor, a new SKU went from days to a single day, from launch. Integration typically takes a few months no in-house development required.

How do we justify this investment internally?

Start with the cost of the status quo. Manual SKU verification takes 25 hours per product. Every delayed launch is revenue your catalog isn't generating. When you add up what manual data handling costs in headcount, delays and errors, the investment case becomes clear. Research puts the average at 1015 supplier interactions per SKU just to go live.

We have hundreds of suppliers with very different levels of digital maturity can this handle that complexity?

Yes. The platform supports every level of supplier sophistication from automated API integrations to simple Excel uploads. AI-powered mapping handles proprietary formats without special configuration. The barrier to getting started is lower than any in-house alternative.
