Cataloguer

What it does

Each morning it reads products that have photos but no tag suggestion yet, and suggests tags for up to 20 of them from up to two photos each. Tags come from a fixed vocabulary, including Indian ethnic wear and jewellery terms:

• piece, craft, stone, motif, fabric, colour and occasion.

Suggestions wait in the tag review in Catalogue. Accepted tags help the stylist search, and help the trend scout and designer tie trends and concepts to products.

Rules it keeps

• It never adds or removes a tag itself, and never edits a product, its price or its stock.
• Tags describe the product, never the wearer.
• It reads no shopper data.
• Each read spends from the agent's budget. It stops when credits or the budget run out.
