PRODUCT RESEARCH · Workflow idea
Gather product details from pages that are approved for research and organize them into a spreadsheet. Keep each product connected to its original page so a researcher can verify names, prices, availability, and images before relying on the comparison or sharing it.
01 / The starting point
Public product pages selected for a permitted research purpose
“Collect selected product details into a structured research list, retain each source page, and hold the results for a person to verify before they are used or shared.”
02 / The work
Helps a researcher organize product information from selected pages without copying each detail by hand.
Confirm each product page is public, appropriate for the research purpose, and permitted to be reviewed.
Agree on the fields that matter, such as product name, listed price, availability, image, and source page.
Keep each product’s extracted details together and preserve its original page address for checking.
Have a researcher check names, prices, availability, and images on the original pages and flag missing or uncertain values.
Require a person to review the completed list and its intended audience before it informs a decision or is distributed.
03 / The result
A source-linked product comparison with extracted details ready for human review.
Commerce · Example outcome
A source-linked product comparison with extracted details ready for human review.
Only review pages you are allowed to access and use, and follow each site’s access and reuse expectations. Extracted details can be incomplete or out of date; compare important fields with the original page before making a decision or sharing the research.
04 / Make it yours
A few choices shape the work around your team.
Select the public product pages and research question, and confirm access and reuse are appropriate.
Set the product details to collect and how to record values that are missing, ambiguous, or different across pages.
Keep source links and collected details available only to the people responsible for the research.
Review examples with missing prices, unavailable items, and changed layouts; confirm a researcher can trace every result to its source.
