Scandinavian Design Community
Roomioo.com is the largest showroom for Scandinavian furniture design and home decor. They deliver a complete overview of products from more than 100 furniture and kitchen brands across the Scandinavian countries.
They came to us with a simple request!
How can we keep the entire products catalogue from hundreds of brands in synch, without doing a lot of complex integration to all the different vendors backend systems? And at the same time make sure that the catalogue is up to date in terms of selection and prices.
Solution
Our solution was to create a generic set of scraper robots to collect unified product information like product name, description, picture and prices, from relevant public websites that sell or present designer furniture. The data harvest of the robots is funneled through our ICE system (Intelligent Content Extraction) for evaluation and refinement.
Refining the data harvest
The large dataset is continuously checked for data consistence, duplicates and irrelevant content and the system keep track of the multitude of colour and style variants for each product. Data are automatically aligned and structured for performance, to avoid any complexity and data heavy calculations from the roomioo website. ICE also has a build in halt functionality, that intelligently will stop the import of a faulty dataset and notify key personal. This will allow technical staff to take a look at the potential faulty robots or websites.
Automated price/currency comparison
To enable products to be compared on price all product prices are automatically converted to one uniform currency to sort the product results by retail price.
Historic data
Daily more than 100.000 products are imported, filtered, sorted and enriched in ICE. All products have a complete history of prices and other changes across time.
