Product Attributes

What the product is. What the market says. What you decide to call it.

Three kinds of attribute on one product, joined at the UPC. Core comes off the pack. Contextual comes from the language around the product. Custom is the structure you define.

Three layers, one product

Every attribute is keyed to the same UPC. Together the three layers describe the whole product.

Three layers of attribute on one can of caffeinated sparkling water. The same structure sits on every SKU in the category.

Core

What the product is, before it is marketed or used by anyone. True whether or not anyone ever buys it.

identifiers · brand hierarchy · taxonomy · flavor and form · size and multipack · packaging · origin

Core attributes →
Contextual

What the market says about it, read from listings and reviews. It moves as the conversation moves.

claims · benefits · occasions · audiences · taste and texture · the words shoppers use

Contextual attributes →
Custom

The structure you set, applied to every UPC in scope the same way we apply our own.

your demand spaces · your thresholds · your naming · your hierarchy

Custom attributes →

Contextual is the widest layer on most products. The proportions move with the product and the category; the three layers do not.

What the attributes are for

Attributes are worth what the decisions they support are worth.

One catalog out to every system, and it only ever grows

The attributes are what Data Products deliver and what Insights Products run on.

Every run adds. No run rewrites.

The attributes are refreshed on a schedule agreed with you. Each run appends what it found and carries everything before it forward, so a report built on an earlier version keeps reading the same values.
