Data quality control

Stop bad product data before export Rules check every SKU

Quality Guard scores every SKU from 0 to 100, quarantines the ones that fail your rules, and lets the rest sync to your channels.

  • Block, Skip and Warn severities
  • 0–100 quality score
  • Rules per sales channel

Key features

  • Score every product

    Each rule you switch on becomes a check, and the 0–100 score moves as fields are filled, translated or edited.

  • Hold back what fails

    A product that breaks a Block rule stops at the export and waits in quarantine with the list of rules it missed.

  • Check per channel

    Amazon, bol, Kaufland and your own webshop each get their own rule set, checked before that channel's export runs.

Why it exists

A completeness score stops nothing

Most systems tell you the catalog is 82% complete and export it anyway. Quality Guard decides per product whether it may leave.

  • Quarantine instead of a warning

    Products that fail a Block rule are pulled out of the export and listed on the quarantine board with the exact fields that are missing.

    Result: the channel never receives the broken record.

  • Pick the severity per rule

    Block stops the product, Skip leaves it out of that one operation, and Warn lets it through with a note for the reviewer.

    Result: a missing EAN blocks, a title two characters over only warns.

  • Check AI output before anyone reads it

    Every description, translation and meta title Content Logic writes is validated against the same rules as hand-typed data.

    Result: generating across 10,000 SKUs stays reviewable.

From one rule to a blocked export

  1. Write the rule

    Build the condition in the rule builder: meta title between 30 and 60 characters, material required when the category is Shoes. Combine conditions with AND or OR. No code, no export template.
  2. Or install a pack

    Rule packs bundle the checks a channel demands: GTIN, image and price checks for Google Shopping, a minimum description length for a marketplace. Install one as a draft, review each rule, then switch it on.
  3. Decide what a failure does

    Each rule has a severity. Block holds the product back from export, Warn lets it through and flags it, Skip leaves it out of that one export. Rules run on every import, bulk edit, AI run and manual save.
  4. Publish or quarantine

    Passing products keep syncing. Failing ones wait in the quarantine queue with the rule they missed and the channel that triggered the check, until someone fixes the fields, in bulk or one at a time.

Channel rules

Every marketplace checks a different box

One rule set per channel, so a product can be ready for your webshop and still be held back from Amazon.

  • Title and attribute limits per channel

    Amazon caps titles at a different length than bol, and each wants its own required attributes. You set those limits once per channel.

  • Validation before the export, not after

    Channel rules run while the export is being built, so a feed rejection becomes a quarantined product instead of a support ticket a week later.

  • One product, several verdicts

    The same SKU can pass your webshop rules and fail Kaufland's image requirement. The product page shows both verdicts side by side.

Each row is a channel with its own rule set; the count beside it is how many products currently fail that channel.

In practice

Where teams put Quality Guard to work

The same rule engine covers the import side, the AI side and the agency side of a catalog.

  • Marketplace listings

    Validate against Amazon, Google Shopping, Kaufland and bol requirements before the feed is generated.

  • Supplier imports

    Score supplier data as it arrives and quarantine products that show up without images, EANs or dimensions.

  • AI proofreading

    Let Content Logic write the descriptions and translations, then check every field against your brand terms and length limits.

  • Agency client sets

    Give each client their own rules, their own forbidden words and their own audit trail inside the Agencies module.

No. It finds and blocks; the fixing is done by you, by a bulk edit, or by Content Logic. Quality Guard re-checks the product after the change and releases it as soon as the rules pass.

Block holds the product back and puts it in quarantine until the rule passes. Skip leaves the product out of the operation that triggered the rule without stopping anything else. Warn publishes the product and records the issue for a reviewer. A missing EAN is usually a Block; a title two characters over is usually a Warn.

A quarantined product stays out of every export until the failing rules pass. You fix it from the quarantine board with a bulk edit or an AI enrichment, and it is released on the next check. There is no manual approval step for someone to forget.

Yes. Channel rules are defined per channel and only run for that channel's export, so a product can be live on your webshop while it is still held back from Amazon. A product that belongs to no channel is checked against your general rules only.

Yes. The rules do not care where a value came from, so text written by Content Logic passes the same checks as imported or hand-typed data. It does not judge whether a sentence reads well: it checks length, required fields, forbidden terms and formatting.

A completeness percentage is advice you can ignore, and the product exports anyway. Quality Guard stops it, validates per channel, and runs on every change rather than on request. It does not replace your data model: you still decide which attributes exist.

Switching on a rule pack takes a few minutes and audits the catalog straight away. Writing channel-specific rules for several marketplaces is usually an afternoon. There is no import or migration step; Quality Guard reads the catalog you already have.
