supplier_compareUse when a supplier announces a price increase or surcharge, sends a new price list or quote, or the user asks whether prices went up since last time. Compares the old basis with the new list per SKU. The old side can bedocuments_tablesExtracts tables from a text-based PDF (price list, data sheet, report; up to 20 MiB, 60 pages) with page, bounding box and a quality level per table. Detects header rows, titles and footnotes and merges tables continuedmerchant_validateChecks a product feed or catalog export for Google Merchant Center, Shopify or Meta (Facebook/Instagram) before upload. Validates CSV, TSV or XLSX against the platform profile: required fields, allowed values (with a hinschema_normalizeConverts a product table (supplier list, ERP or shop export; CSV, TSV or XLSX up to 20 MiB) into an import file for Shopify (product CSV), Google Merchant Center, WooCommerce (built-in importer) or the properties of a cutable_diffCompares two versions of any table (CSV, TSV, XLSX or text-based PDF; price list, bill of materials, product or ERP export, report; up to 20 MiB each).
