🔍 Key insights from the discussion:

Agentic AI is here — and it works
This isn’t just hype. Real use cases show how Agentic AI can streamline mapping processes, reduce manual work, and adapt to ever-changing product data.

Mapping GS1 and UNSPSC with intelligence
Traditional mapping methods can’t keep up with the complexity of modern product catalogs. AI brings speed, accuracy, and adaptability to classification systems.

Data quality is still the foundation
AI can only work with what it’s given — and bad data still leads to bad results. The importance of structured, consistent, and clean data remains critical.

Collaboration between humans and agents
Agentic AI doesn’t replace product data teams — it augments them. The best results come from combining AI’s power with expert human oversight.

Looking ahead: scaling AI across the data ecosystem
As product data environments grow more complex, scalable AI tools will become essential. Early adopters will have a significant advantage in efficiency and accuracy.

Agentic AI is redefining how we approach product data management.
