Description

PAI0003-401-PCINVENTORY COMPLIANCE AND ENHANCEMENT METHOD AND SYSTEM

[0001] This application claims the benefit of priority of the United States Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 63 / 760,486 filed on February 19, 2025, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety for all purposes.

[0002] This disclosure generally relates to product and service listings, particularly electronic descriptions of inventory on e-commerce channels.

[0003] Existing e-commerce platforms expect merchants to comply with diverse requirements for product listings, including character limits, restricted words, data types and formats, and category structures. Merchants often face complications when dealing with multiple platforms, such as Shopify, TikTok Shop, or Square point-of-sale (POS), each of which enforces its own guidelines. Maintaining consistent, compliant product listings across these systems can become cumbersome, especially when platforms periodically modify their rules.

[0004] Many conventional approaches rely on manual edits, spreadsheets, or standalone scripts for each channel, which can be time-consuming and prone to oversights. Such manual steps can lead to incorrect or incomplete listings. For example, a restricted word list may be overlooked, or attributes such as universal product codes (UPC) may not be properly handled. Furthermore, it can be challenging to identify emerging platform features or communication opportunities using disparate manual processes.

[0005] By combining a rules-based approach with access to additional data sources and automated editing capabilities, the disclosed methods, systems, and media can help merchants, content creators, and other users create listings that adhere to platform constraints. Moreover, this disclosure provides targeted suggestions, for instance using platform-specific keywords or referencing product attributes, to enhance listing visibility and / or performance in one or more metrics. These embodiments allow users to address category mapping, seasonal restrictions, and other evolving requirements without resorting to entirely manual updates or multiple independent editing tools.

[0006] The present disclosure provides a computerized method implemented by one or more hardware processors executing machine-readable instructions, the method comprising: comparing item data to a set of platform-specific rules associated with at least one electronic marketplace; modifying the item data to comply with the platform-specific rules; and storing or transmitting the modified item data to the at least one electronic marketplace.PAI0003-401-PC

[0007] The present disclosure also provides a computer system, comprising: one or more hardware processors; and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more hardware processors, cause the system to compare item data to a set of platformspecific rules associated with at least one electronic marketplace, modify the item data to comply with the platform-specific rules, and store or transmit the modified item data to the at least one electronic marketplace.

[0008] The present disclosure further provides a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more hardware processors, cause the one or more hardware processors to compare item data to a set of platform-specific rules associated with at least one electronic marketplace, modify the item data to comply with the platform-specific rules, and store or transmit the modified item data to the at least one electronic marketplace.

[0009] Additional embodiments and features are set forth in part in the description that follows. In part will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon examination of the specification or learned by the practice of the embodiments discussed herein. A further understanding of the nature and advantages of certain embodiments may be realized by reference to the remaining portions of the specification and the drawings, which form a part of this disclosure.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0016] The present disclosure provides a computerized method implemented by one or more hardware processors executing machine-readable instructions, the method comprising: comparing item data to a set of platform-specific rules associated with at least one electronic marketplace; modifying the item data to comply with the platform-specific rules; and storing or transmitting the modified item data to the at least one electronic marketplace.

[0017] In some embodiments, the system is directed to adapting and enhancing product data for one or more e-commerce platforms, which can be integrated with other solutions. This disclosure addresses the varied sets of platform requirements encountered in systems such as, for example, Shopify, TikTok Shop, Facebook Shop, Instagram Shop, Clover POS, Square POS, and Wix.

[0018] In some embodiments, a system compares product data — such as titles, descriptions, images, or variants — against platform-specific guidelines. These guidelines may include character limits, restricted words or phrases (for example “tobacco,” “alcohol,” or certain medical claims), data type checks, field specifications, image or media standards, and variant compliance. The system identifies and addresses instances where product data does not align with these guidelines, revising text references, transforming data formats, resizing or converting images, and prompting the user for any missing information, such as universal product codes (UPC) or global trade item numbers (GTIN).

[0019] In certain embodiments, the system allows users to define custom restricted word lists. In other embodiments, the system indicates how to adapt product data to the search or engagement conventions of each platform, for example by suggesting useful keywords, refining a product description, proposing hashtags, or highlighting communication features. In some embodiments, the system advises on category mapping and attribute enrichment, adding details such as material, color, or size, when beneficial.

[0020] In some embodiments, the system supports bulk editing or automated rules for multiple products, enabling consistent structural or formatting changes, such as automatically capitalizing titles or adding descriptor tags. In some embodiments, the system integrates with other existing inventory, price, and reporting modules to streamline workflow.

[0021] In certain embodiments, the system produces compliance reports, for example, to help user focus. In some embodiments, the system tracks performance indicators, such as user views or sales conversions across different platforms, to aid in assessing the results of particular data changes.PAI0003-401-PC

[0022] For example, when a merchant uses Shopify, the system may flag length constraints in a t-shirt’s title, recommend descriptive attributes like “organic cotton” or “crew neck,” and alert the user about missing UPC details. In a TikTok Shop scenario, they system may suggest a shorter, more engaging title, a concise product video, or platform-relevant hashtags. When linked with Square POS, the system may emphasize price accuracy, barcode data, and simplified product categorization for in-store transactions.

[0023] FIG. 1 illustrates a GUI for managing item data within an electronic marketplace, specifically highlighting a product listing for a “Bolero Hat.” The interface comprises multiple sections: “Media platform” section 100, “Source of truth” section 110, “Instructions” section 120, “Basic Information” section 130, “Media” section 140, “Status” section 150, and an auxiliary section titled “Recommended” 160, each delineated by bold headers and guiding tooltips. “Media platform” section 100 permits the user to select which electronic marketplace to design a listing, for example, Shopify, Clover, and TikTok Shop. “Source of truth” section 110 designates which user account to draw data from and which platformspecific set of rules to follow. “Instructions” section 120 guides the user to complete product profile.

[0024] “Basic Information” section 130 indicates specific requirement for aids input for the product’s descriptive attributes, such as title 200, category 210, brand 220, and product attributes 250, including, for example, hat type 251, leather type 252, hat fit type 253, style 254, pattern 255, material 256, care instruction 257, gender 258, and occasion 259. Title 200 includes a recommendation from the selected media platform in “Media platform” section 100. The system can provide a warning 201, to alert the user to red flags that might result in the media platform rejecting the product, or in decreased success rates. For example, when the title 200 is too short, the warning suggests using more descriptive words. Text for the title 200 can be copied from source of truth 205. Category 210 can be formatted with a text field or pulldown menu with standard terms. The system can advise user against uploading prohibited or restricted products defined by the media platform 100. Brand 220 can be formatted with a text field or pulldown menu with standard terms. The system can advise user to apply for brand authorization for qualifying products, which are more likely to be recommended on the media platform 100. Text for the brand 220 can be copied from source of truth 225. Each product attribute 250 can be formatted with a text field or pulldown menu that provides standard features, for example, hat type 251 “Wide flat brim,” style 254 “Flat-crowned,” material 256 “Felt,” and gender 258 “Unisex.” Unused attributes are left blank.PAI0003-401-PC

[0025] “ Status” section 150 provides notifications about the listing’s completeness and indicates whether additional actions are required to meet marketplace standards. Specific notification types may include warnings or success indicators.

[0026] “Recommended” section 160 displays a status bar indicating the product completion score, and suggests additional enhancements, such as alternative product names, pricing strategies, or image upgrades, to improve the listing’s effectiveness and compliance with platform-specific guidelines.

[0027] Referring to FIG. 2, a second portion of the GUI illustrates “Media” section 140, which permits the association of visual content, including product images 141, size chart 142, and videos 143, with options for editing or replacing them. The product images 141 can include a warning 144, to alert the user of platform-specific recommendations, such as uploading between three and nine images, each 300 x 300 pixels with a maximum file size of 5 MB. Accepted formats can include JPG, JPEG, and PNG. In some cases, the images must be 1 : 1 ratio (square) and will be cropped if otherwise, which can be adjusted later. Product images 141 can be copied from source of truth 145.

In addition, the functionality may be embodied in whole or in part in firmware or hardware equivalents such as integrated circuits, field programmable gate arrays (FPGA), and the like.

[0112] A programming interface (or “interface”) may be treated as any mechanism, process, or protocol by which one or more segments of code communicate with or access functionality provided by one or more other segments of code. In certain embodiments, a programming interface involves one or more mechanisms, methods, function calls, modules, objects, or other runtime structures that facilitate communicative coupling with one or more mechanisms, methods, function calls, modules, or other runtime structures in one or more other system components. As referenced herein, a “segment of code” may encompass one or more instructions or lines of code (e.g., modules, objects, subroutines, or functions) in any compiled or interpreted format (source, intermediate, or object code), and may execute on the same or different machines (or distributed across multiple platforms). The functionality or logic of such segments of code may be implemented partially or fully in software, hardware, or a combination thereof. By way of example and not limitation, the definition of a programming interface may include an application programming interface (API), entry point, method, function, subroutine, remote procedure call, or component object model (COM) interface.

[0113] Aspects of this programming interface may include how a first code segment transmits data — broadly construed to include commands, requests, parameters, and so on — to a second code segment. They may further include the way the second code segment receives such data, as well as the structure, sequence, syntax, organization, schema, timing, and content of that data. It is contemplated that the underlying transport medium can be wired, wireless, or a combination thereof, so long as the information exchange aligns with the definitions set by the interface. In some implementations, data may not flow bidirectionally in a conventional sense; for instance, one segment of code may simply place data in a buffer or file for the other. An aspect applies based on the situation, including whether the code segments are loosely or tightly coupled. Accordingly, these variations are illustrative and not limiting.PAI0003-401-PC

[0114] This concept of a programming interface is understood in the art and may be shaped by any relevant descriptions found herein. Illustrative approaches to implementing a programming interface range from factoring, redefinition, inline coding, and divorce, to rewriting and beyond. These and other possible implementations, unless expressly excluded, are contemplated in the legal claims attached to this specification.

[0115] “Computing device” refers to any mobile device (including smartphones, tablets, wearable devices, or other portable computers) capable of data access. For example, a device such as a smartphone, watch, fitness tracker, or a tablet that can send and receive wireless data via protocols like the Internet Protocol (IP), Wi-Fi (including Wi-Fi 5, Wi-Fi 6, or Wi-Fi 7), 5G or 6G protocols, or other emerging standards may fit this definition. Users can accordingly access information through smartphones, mobile phones, pagers, two-way radios, communicators, wearables, and other mobile devices. Such devices may operate with numerous mobile and wireless networking technologies, including but not limited to CDPD, CDMA, GSM, PDC, PHS, TDMA, FLEX, iDEN, TETRA, DECT, DataTAC, Mobitex, EDGE, 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, 6G, or similar present or future developments, and may run on various operating systems such as PalmOS, EPOC, Windows CE, FLEXOS, OS / 9, Java OS, iOS, Android, watchOS, or others.

[0116] In many cases, these devices incorporate smaller displays or user interfaces (e.g., so-called mini- or micro-browsers) to function within the memory constraints inherent to wireless networks. In some representative embodiments, a device is a smartphone operating over technologies such as GPRS, 3G, 4G, 5G, or IP -based protocols. In addition to conventional voice channels, these devices support various messaging formats, including SMS, EMS, MMS, email, paging, WAP, push notifications, or other existing or later-deployed data exchange protocols. While examples discussed herein may focus on mobile devices, such implementations are equally adaptable to any suitable “computing device.”

Also, any communications connection (wired, wireless, or hybrid) that effectively presents information to a computer may be considered a computer-readable medium, as can combinations of the above. Computer-executable instructions can include those that direct a general-purpose orPAI0003-401-PCspecial-purpose computer or processor to perform certain functionality, individually or collectively.

[0118] “ Communication media” typically encompasses computer-readable instructions, data structures, program modules, or other data immersed in a modulated data signal (e.g., a carrier wave) or other transport mechanism and may incorporate a wide variety of information delivery media.

[0119] “Modulated data signal” refers to a signal with one or more of its characteristics altered to encode information. By way of example, without limitation, communication media includes wired media (e.g., direct- wired connections) and wireless media (such as acoustic, radio frequency (RF), infrared, or various evolving wireless protocols), as well as any combination thereof.

[0120] Where subject matter in this disclosure references computer-executable instructions, such references may comprise program modules executed by various systems, computers, or other devices. Illustrative modules may include routines, programs, objects, components, data structures, or other logical constructs that perform tasks or represent or manipulate data, either in standalone or distributed environments.

[0121] Operating environments that enable embodiments of this disclosure are known but vary widely. As a representative example, a computing device (such as a mobile device) may interface with transmission functionality that depends on the network environment. For instance, where the operating environment is a wide-area wireless network (e.g., 3G, 4G, 5G, 6G, or subsequent generations), it may include components such as a mobile switching center (MSC), visitor location register (VLR), home location register (HLR), one or more base stations (cells), a base station controller (BSC), and a packet control unit (PCU), among others. The HLR may supervise certain services associated with incoming calls or data. These or similar configurations are equally applicable to newly introduced mobile network architectures or next-generation standards.
