Product / SKUgraph

A graph for every SKU.

SKUgraph is the retail knowledge layer from Machine Commerce: one connected record for each product, from what it is to where it sits and how it sells.

01 / The problem

A SKU is more than a row in a catalog.

What it is.

Attributes, variants and packaging live in one system, while the shelf lives in another.

Where it sits.

A product has a store, a shelf, a row and a facing. That position changes what a customer, or an agent, can find.

How it sells.

Sales and price move over time. They only help when they are tied to the same product record.

02 / How it works

From the shelf to a record you can query.

01

Capture

Start from shelf photos and the retailer catalog.

02

Structure

Turn what is seen into a layout: store, shelf, row, facing.

03

Connect

Tie each position to product, price and sales data.

04

Answer

Let people and agents ask the graph instead of scraping pages.

03 / The product

Retail knowledge, not shelf audits.

It builds on the shelf work in Retail Planogram. See Retail Planogram.

One record per SKU.

The graph keeps a product, its place on the shelf and its history together, so each question has one place to look.

What the graph holds
ProductIdentity and attributes
PositionStore, shelf, row, facing
CommercePrice and sales, linked

Made for machines too.

The same graph can answer the questions a shopping agent asks: does this store carry it, where, and at what price.

Example questions
Carried?Yes or no, per store
Where?Down to the shelf
At what price?From the record
04 / Evidence and limits
