GridPXM product list showing a catalogue with category, status and type for each product

Same product. A different question in every context.

Marketplaces, AI assistants and the people who sell for you all need to understand your product. GridPXM turns scattered spreadsheets into one checked product record each of them can rely on.

Illustration of one product catalogue branching out to different channels

  • Marketplace: "Does it match our template?"

    GridPXM shows which required details are still empty, so your team can fill them in before you upload.

  • Website: "Why should I buy this?"

    The full specifications behind the story you tell.

  • WhatsApp or email: "Quick, is it right for me?"

    Your sales team replies with the right fact, because it's already in GridPXM, not buried in an old PDF or Excel file.

  • Distributor: "How is it packed and shipped?"

    Specifications, pack sizes and carton details.

  • New market: "Is this right for my country?"

    Names, required details and language change by market. It's football in Manchester and soccer in Chicago. Same boot, different context.

Sound familiar?

Most teams that sell products have lived through at least one of these.

GridPXM categories view with a category tree and translated name, description and SEO fields

Everyone holds one piece of the product

The photographer has the images. Production has the materials. Compliance has the certificates. Warehousing has the shipping weight. Nobody has the whole product.

The 47-column spreadsheet

One tab per category. Formulas only one person understands. The same product listed as "Parrot Green", "Light Green" and "Lime". And one wrong sort away from scrambling every row.

The marketplace template, filled in by hand. Again.

Every new marketplace brings a new template, and someone copies the same product details into it, one cell at a time.

The image folder with fourteen versions

v1, v1-final, v1-final-FINAL, v1-final-FINAL-2, and nobody's sure which one is live.

The new-market scramble

Selling in a new country means a new name, new required details and a new language. Someone rebuilds every listing from scratch.

The customer question nobody could answer

A customer asks sales "Is this waterproof?" The PDF they were handed doesn't say. They dodge the question, and the sale goes cold.

Messy data doesn't stay in your spreadsheet

Online, it shows up wherever your products are listed, searched or recommended.

A messy product spreadsheet with missing and mismatched cells, feeding a rejected marketplace listing, conflicting product fit details and an AI assistant that can't find a material

Listings get rejected or held back

A required field is missing or a category doesn't match, and the marketplace rejects or suppresses the listing until someone finds and fixes it.

The launch waits on the catalogue

The product was ready. The listing wasn't: dimensions missing, three images unresolved, and one required field nobody had filled in.

AI gets conflicting information

Your site says "wide fit." A marketplace says "regular fit." When your facts disagree across sources, it's harder for an AI assistant to be sure which is right.

AI can't find the detail it needs

A parent asks for "wide, stable toddler shoes with good arch support." Your shoe may fit, but if those details are buried in a paragraph or never recorded, they're harder for an assistant to match to the question.

Offline, it travels with the people who sell

Your sales team, distributors and dealers are channels too. They answer customers from whatever file they were sent last.

The old PDF still in circulation

A dealer quotes a spec from a catalogue that was replaced months ago. Nobody told them, because nobody knew they still had it.

The sell sheet with last season's case pack

A buyer orders from a sheet that still shows the old carton size, and the shipment arrives in the wrong quantity.

Every partner wants a different file

One distributor wants a spreadsheet, another wants a PDF, a third wants their own template. Someone rebuilds the same facts each time.

The forwarded message nobody can trace

A photo and three lines of specs, forwarded five times. Nobody knows if it's still right.

Same kettle. Four markets.

The product doesn't change at the border. What each market asks you to show does. GridPXM keeps every language version of your text, plus fields for the details each market asks for, on one product record. Examples only, not legal advice.

European Union

Who the responsible person in the EU is, and safety information in the buyer's language.

United States (California)

A Proposition 65 warning, where it applies to the product.

India

Maximum retail price, net quantity, country of origin and manufacturer details on the listing.

Saudi Arabia

Product information in Arabic, alongside English.

Start with the product data you already have

Bring your product data in as a CSV, and GridPXM shows you exactly what needs fixing before anything is saved.

1

Import and understand

Bring your product data in as a CSV. GridPXM checks every row and shows you what's missing or wrong before anything is saved.

2

Clean and organise

Fix what's flagged, and sort every product into categories that make sure the right details are filled in, with its images alongside.

4

Keep it ready

Every product shows what's still missing, so your catalogue stays complete as it grows. When a marketplace, a distributor or your own team needs it, export it as a CSV file.

3

Enrich and adapt

Add descriptions, specifications, translations and images, and the details each market asks for.

One checked place for every product

Structure, checks and images in one place, so your catalogue stays consistent as it grows and every version starts from the same facts.

Checked before it's saved

Before you join

What is GridPXM?
Think about where your product information lives right now: a few spreadsheets, photos on someone's laptop, descriptions retyped every time a buyer asks. GridPXM is one proper place for all of it. It's PIM (product information management) software: your product facts, images and files, checked and kept in one place.
Is this a PIM?
Yes, at its core. GridPXM is PIM software: it holds your product information, structured, checked and consistent, in one place. That's the foundation. PXM is the bigger idea: the same checked information, ready for every channel, audience and market.
Does GridPXM include DAM (digital asset management)?
Yes. GridPXM includes an asset library for your product images, video, audio and documents, with folders, tags and metadata fields you define. Product images sit on the product record, and the quality check flags any product missing the images it needs.
Do I have to stop using Excel?
No. You bring your product data in once, as a CSV file. After that, you keep your catalogue up to date in GridPXM.
What if my product data is incomplete?
That's where most catalogues start. GridPXM shows you what's missing or wrong, product by product, so your team knows exactly what to fill in.
Can I manage products in more than one language?
Yes. Each product holds its text in every language you sell in, on one record. During early access, we set up your languages with you.
Does GridPXM help with distributors, dealers and sales teams?
Today, GridPXM gives your team one checked version of every product's facts to work from, instead of old PDFs and forwarded files, and CSV files you can hand to any partner. Sharing that information directly with distributors, dealers and partners is what GridX is being built to do.
Will GridPXM make my listings compliant?
No tool can guarantee that, and GridPXM doesn't give legal advice. What it gives you is one place to keep the details rules ask for, such as country of origin or safety information, and a clear flag when they're missing for a product type that requires them.
What's the difference between GridPXM and GridX?
GridPXM takes your product information from mess to ready. GridX takes it from ready to everywhere, sharing it with channels and partners. GridX is in development.
I already sell on Shopify, Amazon or another marketplace. Does this replace that?
No. GridPXM is where your product catalogue is built and maintained. Where you sell stays where you sell.
Does GridPXM send my products to Amazon or Shopify?
Not today. Your team completes the catalogue in GridPXM, and GridPXM checks it and shows what's still missing. When it's ready, you export it as CSV files and upload them wherever you sell. Sending data straight to channels and partners is what GridX is being built to do.
What does it cost?
Plans are built around what your catalogue needs, not the size of your company. If you manage thousands of products with a few web-ready images each, there's a plan built around product count. If you have fewer products with rich detail and high-resolution photography, there's a plan built around image storage. Pick whichever fits how you work, and there's a free tier to start. Exact limits and prices are still being finalised.
When can I actually use it?
Access is currently by request.
Is my data private?
Yes. Your catalogue belongs to your account and is kept separate from every other business on GridPXM.
Can I get my data out?
Yes. Your data belongs to you. You can export your catalogue as CSV files, or take a full copy of your data, at any time.
Do I need a minimum number of products to join?
No. There's no minimum. Bring the catalogue you have today.
Who is early access for?
Brands, marketplace sellers, ecommerce sites, distributors and stores that manage product information today, whether that's in spreadsheets, folders or somewhere else, in any country.

Bring your product data. See what's missing, what's wrong and what's ready.

Our goal is to make product information ready to work wherever your products are discovered, evaluated and sold. Tell us how your business manages it today.
