- 70+ languages

Key features
Specs with units
Dimensions, weights and materials as typed attributes with unit of measure codes.
Installation documents

Who it's for
Built for building and DIY catalogs
WISEPIM fits teams that sell or supply tools, building materials, sanitary and hardware with many specs per item.
Built for you if
- You supply dealers or installers from 5,000 SKUs or more, or run a webshop with 2,000 or more.
- Your products carry dimensions, materials, standards and safety data that buyers filter on.
- Suppliers deliver bulk files with their own columns, codes and abbreviations.
- Installation and sanitary customers ask you for ETIM classes.
- You sell in 3 or more countries or languages, or plan to within a year.
- You run Magento 2, Shopify, WooCommerce, Lightspeed, CCV Shop or Akeneo.
Probably not yet if
- You sell a few hundred products with little spec data. Start on the free plan.
- You have over 250,000 SKUs and no PIM yet. Talk to us about an Enterprise project first.
- You only need a one-off cleanup of a single file. WISEPIM is a subscription, not a project.

Why building and DIY teams look for a PIM
Where building and DIY data breaks
Bulk supplier files and mixed units meet buyers who need to know exactly what fits and what is safe.

Installation documents go missing
Manuals, mounting instructions and safety data sheets sit in supplier PDFs. Installers and DIY shoppers cannot find them on the product page.
Specs in mixed units
One supplier writes 1200 mm, the next 1.2 m, a third leaves the unit out. Filters on length, diameter or load stop working.
What fits with what
Pipe diameter, thread size and fixing type decide whether two products work together. In free text, nobody can filter on them.
Standards and safety data
Fire class, IP rating, CE marking and declarations of performance have to be complete and correct on every item.
Bulk SKUs from suppliers
A new supplier range means thousands of rows full of codes and abbreviations. Typing them into the shop takes weeks.
Pros and DIYers read differently
An installer wants the specs table. A DIY shopper wants to know what the job needs. Both land on the same product page.

Setup path
From supplier file to complete range
Most teams start with one range, such as fixings or sanitary, then widen the scope.
Import a supplier range
First day
Upload CSV, Excel, XML or BMEcat. AI proposes the column mapping and detects units, you confirm it and save it for the next delivery.
Structure one range
First week
Set up a family with its required specs and units, or turn ETIM classes into families. Decode supplier codes into brand, size and material with your own glossary.
Publish to your shop and dealers
First weeks
Push the range to your shop, or build a BMEcat feed or brand portal for dealers. Supplier stock and price files can come in by upload, link, FTP, SFTP or email.

How WISEPIM solves it
What a building and DIY PIM does
Six jobs WISEPIM takes off your product team, each backed by a feature you can open today.
Bulk supplier files, decoded
Saved import profiles map each supplier's columns once. Supplier code decoding with your own glossary turns terse codes and abbreviations into brand, material and size.
A new supplier range lands complete, not as raw rows.
Dimensions and units you can filter
Typed attributes with unit of measure code sets, value merging and synonyms. Bulk editing converts units and numbers across a whole range in one run.
Length, diameter and weight filters work across suppliers.
ETIM for installation and sanitary
Turn ETIM classes into families and attributes, let AI map products and fill features, and export BMEcat with ETIM to installation wholesalers. GS1 GPC bricks can become your category tree.
Wholesaler requirements become fields, not a project.
Specs Checked Before They Go Live
Quality Guard rules check required specs, safety data and documents, and hold back products that fail before export. The fill gaps job fills missing attributes from photos and the web, within your allowed values.
Incomplete items stay out of your shop and feeds.
Copy for pros and DIYers
AI writes descriptions from your specs in the brand voice you set in the Knowledge Library, and translates them into 70+ languages. Save one prompt for installers and one for DIY shoppers.
Both audiences find what they need on the same page.
Stock and prices from suppliers
Supplier sources collect stock and price files by upload, link, FTP, SFTP or email, log every delivery and update your products.
Your stock and prices follow the supplier's latest file.
