SYNDICATED
DATA

Rebuilding product data after creating catalogs wastes time and resources.

Most manufacturers still rely on their polished PDFs as the closest thing to a single source of truth.
Layer One’s Catalog Data Extraction tool analyzes, extracts, structures, and normalizes that information into clean, channel-ready data, ready to feed your PIM, distributor networks, and eCommerce platforms.
You get a configurable tool and expert setup that transforms your existing catalogs into a sustainable, repeatable data pipeline for every channel.

Signs your product data process is creating friction:

  • Product data has to be manually rebuilt after every catalog update
  • PDFs are treated as the source, but don’t connect cleanly to PIM or eCommerce
  • Attribute structures vary across channels, creating inconsistency and rework
  • Teams spend time reformatting instead of improving data quality
  • Updates lag behind catalog releases, causing gaps across systems
  • Product information differs between your website, distributors, and internal tools

 

Your catalogs already contain the product data.
The challenge is getting it out in a format your channels can actually use.

How we help

Many manufacturers have already done the hard work of building polished product catalogs, but the data inside those files still has to be reworked before it can support PIM, eCommerce, distributor requirements, and other downstream needs.

 

PDF-to-Syndicated-Data gives you a structured way to extract and prepare that content for digital use. We turn catalog-based product information into normalized, channel-ready data sets that are easier to manage, easier to distribute, and easier to keep aligned as content changes over time.

 

That helps reduce manual effort, improve data consistency, and create a stronger foundation for syndication, search, compliance, and digital product representation.

 

Trusted by manufacturers working with complex eCommerce and experience platforms.
