PIM Built for Supplier & Vendor Product Data Management
Supplier product data shouldn’t live in emails and spreadsheets. Apimio acts as your PIM for suppliers and vendors, letting them enter product data directly while you control structure, validation, and readiness before anything goes live.
Challenges We Solve
Without Apimio
Endless Email Chains
Supplier product data lives in inboxes instead of your product system. Every update triggers follow-ups, version confusion, and unnecessary back-and-forth.
Inconsistent Data Formats
Each vendor sends data their own way — spreadsheets, files, or pasted text. Without a centralized PIM structure, your team spends hours reformatting before the data is usable.
Slow Product Launches
Products can’t go live until supplier product data is complete. Missing images, specs, or pricing delays launches and creates bottlenecks across teams.
Poor Data Quality
Unstructured vendor product data leads to incomplete listings, incorrect attributes, and inconsistent product information, directly impacting customer trust
With Apimio
Vendor-Driven Data Entry
Suppliers enter and update their own product data directly in Apimio, eliminating manual follow-ups and disconnected data sources.
Standardized PIM Templates
Define exactly what product information you need. Required fields, validation rules, and attribute standards ensure every vendor submits data in the same format.
Faster Product Readiness
Products move faster from submission to launch when vendors can complete data anytime, without waiting on your team for manual entry.
Built-In Quality Control
Completeness scoring and validation checks ensure supplier data meets your standards before it’s approved and published.
Why Apimio Works for Growing Teams
Built to manage product data across teams, vendors, and suppliers
Save 10+ Hours Every Week
Reduce manual data entry across teams. When vendors and suppliers update product information directly, your internal teams can focus on merchandising, enrichment, and go-to-market tasks.
Launch Products Faster
Product launches no longer stall due to incomplete data. Vendors and suppliers can submit product details anytime, while your team reviews and publishes once standards are met.
Maintain Data Quality at Scale
Required fields, validation rules, and completeness scoring help ensure product data meets your quality standards — regardless of whether it comes from internal teams or external partners.
Scale Collaboration Without Losing Control
Work with more vendors and suppliers without increasing complexity. Each party has controlled access, while your team maintains full visibility, approval, and ownership of product data.
Features to Manage Product Data Across Teams, Vendors, and Suppliers
One-Click Invitations
Invite vendors or suppliers with a single click. They receive an email to create their account and start submitting product data immediately — no complex onboarding needed.
Controlled Access
Assign products or categories to vendors, suppliers, or internal teams. Each party sees only what they are allowed to view or edit, keeping your data secure and organized.
Custom Field Templates
Set exactly what product information is required. Validation rules and required fields ensure nothing is missed, whether data comes from internal teams, vendors, or suppliers.
Quality Scoring
Every product receives a completeness score. Quickly see which items are ready for publishing and which need attention, with field-level breakdowns for easy review.
Asset Upload
Upload product images and digital assets directly into the dashboard. Assets from vendors, suppliers, or internal teams are organized, stored, and ready for use across channels.
Sync to Shopify
Once product data meets your standards, sync it with your Shopify store(s) in one click. Real-time, bi-directional updates ensure all information stays accurate and up to date.
How It Works
