If you're already using a Product Information Management (PIM) system, you’ve probably streamlined a lot of your day-to-day.

But even with a solid setup, some parts of product data management still eat up time - writing product descriptions, checking for errors, updating attributes, translating into different languages.

This article is for digital teams, e-commerce managers and marketers who already work with a PIM but want to go further. 

You’ll learn how AI features integrated with composable PIM systems like Bluestone PIM can take over repetitive jobs, help you scale faster, and keep your data in better shape with less effort.

What AI Can Actually Do For You

AI is not a magic button. But used well, it takes care of the repetitive, time-consuming tasks that slow your team down.

Here’s what AI in a system can handle:

  • Writing product descriptions based on structured product data. Need hundreds of descriptions in different tones? Done.

  • Translating content into multiple languages. It’s fast and consistent and doesn’t miss the detail.

  • Spotting errors and gaps in product data. AI can flag what’s missing before it reaches the customer.

These are not experimental tools. They work. And they’re already in use by companies who want to spend less time editing spreadsheets and more time selling.

Generate Product Descriptions with AI

Writing good product content takes time. AI can cut that time in half, or more. 

With features like AI Enrich, you can choose the right labels - such as size, material, colour - and let the AI write the description for you.

The AI calculates costs based on the number of input and output tokens, with each token representing approximately four characters. The cost per token varies depending on the model used.

Basic GPT Model: Less powerful, lower cost, produces simpler or less detailed responses, and might be faster due to smaller size or fewer computations.

Advanced AI Model: More powerful, higher cost, produces higher-quality and more detailed responses, but could be slower because of increased computational complexity.

Pricing for AI models often decreases with each new release, making advanced processing more cost-effective over time.

It’s not just filler, either. You can guide the tone and purpose. Want SEO-friendly descriptions packed with keywords? Tick the box. Prefer something more fun, with emojis? Add that to your prompt. The best part: you can preview the output before it goes live.

And if you’re updating hundreds or thousands of products, the bulk edit option makes the whole process run in the background while you get on with other tasks.

Translate Product Content at Scale 

Expanding into new regions? AI helps with that, too. AI Linguist translates product content into different languages in minutes. It’s fast, it’s accurate, and it gets the tone right whether you need something formal or relaxed.

You still have human oversight, but the heavy lifting is handled for you. This makes entering new markets faster and more sustainable. No need to grow your headcount or delay launches because you’re still waiting on a translator.

Fix Product Data Automatically

Even with a good process, bad data slips through. Attributes go missing. Colours are inconsistent. Sometimes a product’s listed as beige when it’s clearly red.

Keeping product data clean is hard work. AI can now do most of it for you. AI Analyst scans your whole catalogue, spots issues like the wrong colour or an out-of-date release year and suggests better values.

Savings: $

Even better, you can ask the AI in your PIM to automatically fix those issues - no need to clean up data line by line.

That means fewer manual checks, faster product updates, and more consistent, accurate data across every sales channel. It’s not just a time-saver - it’s a way to reduce errors, avoid rework, and keep your product experience sharp wherever your customers shop.

Explore the fastest way to identify and fill gaps in product data with PIM.

Built For Your Stack, Not Someone Else’s

A lot of platforms bundle AI as part of their own locked-down ecosystem. Bluestone PIM does the opposite. It’s model-agnostic. You can plug in your own AI setup, or use models from different providers. It’s your call.

That flexibility matters. Maybe your company’s already invested in AI elsewhere. Or maybe you’ve got internal language models trained on your own product copy. Either way, you don’t need to start from scratch or give up control.

How Automated Product Information Management with AI Helps Your Business

This isn’t about using AI because everyone is talking all about it. It’s about what you actually get back.

  • Save time and cut costs: automate repetitive jobs and reduce manual input.

  • Improve content quality: get consistent, brand-aligned descriptions and translations.

  • Scale faster: expand into new markets without adding headcount.

  • Fix data issues before they reach customers: let AI clean up your catalogue automatically.

  • Stay in control: guide the output with custom prompts and approve content before it goes live.

AI Isn’t Replacing Your Team - It’s Backing Them Up

If you're already using a PIM, AI is your next step forward. It doesn’t replace your team, it makes them faster, more consistent, and more focused. The time savings are real, and the quality gains are measurable.

It’s not the future. It’s already here. Stop wasting time - let the AI do the grunt work.
