India’s e-commerce industry is projected to exceed $350 billion by 2030, with quick-commerce (Q-commerce) emerging as its fastest-growing segment.
As consumers demand instant shopping and doorstep delivery within minutes, accuracy has become as critical as speed.
Errors in product tagging, inconsistent metadata, or poor classification can disrupt discovery, cause delivery failures, and erode customer trust.
With Q-commerce expanding into multiple city clusters, real-time and hyperlocal inventory visibility is now indispensable.
Customers expect the right product to appear in search, be available locally, and arrive quickly—all of which depend on precise, dynamic cataloging.
Cataloging has transformed from a back-office task into a core business enabler.
Accurate classification, tagging, and catalog enrichment directly impact delivery accuracy, customer loyalty, and even average basket size.
Manual processes or outdated systems can no longer keep pace, as rising order volumes risk higher returns and declining satisfaction.
The solution lies in AI/ML-powered catalog management.
Automated enrichment ensures real-time tagging, classification, and attribute standardization at scale, while metadata automation improves search, recommendations, and discovery.
Combined with API-first architecture, Q-commerce players can achieve instant SKU synchronization across fulfilment centers—processing millions of products daily without compromising speed or accuracy.
