## The project

Indian buyers needed usable product information from multiple Chinese suppliers, with warehouse tooling to support the operation. Further commerce development is currently paused.

## From supplier records to commerce workflows

We built the supplier-data pipelines and integrated the AI services. Work on the cart and order flows is still in progress.

1.  ### Import supplier data
    
    Built scraping pipelines to bring authorised vendor records from AliExpress and Pinduoduo into Sinzo.
    
2.  ### Prepare the catalogue
    
    Translate descriptions, remove duplicates, map categories, convert prices, process images and prepare stock updates.
    
3.  ### Deploy the AI services
    
    Deployed a dedicated LLM with inference engineering and integrated OpenAI APIs. The AI work covers catalogue processing and shopping assistance.
    
4.  ### Commerce integration — in progress
    
    Ongoing work covers selected variants and quantities, cart checks for stock, price and ownership, and server-side order creation.

## A shared starting point

Identity and logo design were included in the engagement, giving the business a brand foundation while its software was being developed.
