# IRONFEED > IRONFEED is product feed management software for ecommerce teams. Import product catalogs from Shopify and other sources, transform and validate them with a no‑code mapping engine, and sync optimized feeds to Google Shopping, Meta, TikTok, Bing and other channels. Engineered for technical integrity at scale. - Website: https://www.ironfeed.app - Primary domain: ironfeed.app - App: https://feed.ironfeed.app - Status: production - Category: SaaS — Product Feed Management / Ecommerce Marketing Operations - Positioning: Engineer‑grade alternative to DataFeedWatch, Channable, Feedonomics, GoDataFeed, Productsup, Lengow, ChannelEngine, WakeupData, AdNabu and Simprosys. - Tagline: Technical Integrity in Feed Management. --- ## What IRONFEED does IRONFEED is the system of record for a brand's product feed. It: 1. **Imports** product catalogs from ecommerce platforms (Shopify today, more sources on the roadmap) and from raw feed sources (XML, CSV, JSON, Google Sheets, FTP/SFTP, HTTPS URLs). 2. **Normalizes** them into a single internal "master catalog" with typed fields, lookup tables and per‑shop overrides. 3. **Transforms** master fields into channel‑specific output feeds using a visual mapping engine: conditional logic, regex, lookup tables, AI‑assisted categorization, value rewriting and calculated fields. 4. **Validates** every output feed against channel specs (Google Merchant Center, Meta Commerce Manager, TikTok Shop, Microsoft Advertising / Bing Shopping) and surfaces blocking errors, warnings and recommendations. 5. **Exports** feeds via stable public URLs, direct push to Merchant Center / Catalog APIs, or scheduled SFTP upload. 6. **Monitors** feed health continuously — schedules, success rate, per‑shop import status, per‑channel approval and per‑product issues — with alerts and an admin health dashboard. Built for ecommerce teams that have outgrown spreadsheets and Shopify's default Google channel app, and for agencies managing many storefronts across markets. --- ## Who it is for - **DTC brands** with 1k–100k SKUs that sell on Google Shopping and Meta. - **Multi‑market merchants** running the same catalog in several countries / languages / currencies. - **Performance marketing agencies** managing feeds for many clients with per‑shop roles and seats. - **Ecommerce ops / data engineers** who need deterministic, auditable transformations instead of black‑box AI. - **Shopify Plus and headless stores** that need richer feed control than the native Google sales channel. Not a fit for: marketplaces requiring full order management (IRONFEED handles catalog, not order sync), or teams that need a full PIM with workflow approvals (IRONFEED is feed‑first, not a PIM). --- ## Core capabilities ### Source connectors (input feeds) - Shopify (OAuth app, polling sync, webhook updates). - Generic input feeds: XML, CSV, TSV, JSON, JSONL. - Fetch from HTTPS URL, FTP, SFTP, Google Sheets. - Manual upload for one‑off audits. - Scheduled re‑import (cron) per shop, with daily update slots based on plan. ### Master catalog - Single normalized representation per shop. - Typed master fields (string, number, boolean, list, image URL, money, GTIN, etc.). - Custom master fields for brand‑specific attributes. - Per‑shop lookup tables: many‑to‑one value rewrites, e.g. supplier color → Google taxonomy color. - Variant‑aware: parent / variant relationship preserved end‑to‑end. ### Mapping & transformation engine - Visual rule builder, no code required. - Per‑field rules with conditional logic (if / else if / else). - Operators: equals, contains, starts with, ends with, regex match, numeric ranges, exists, list membership. - Transformations: trim, uppercase / lowercase / title case, replace, regex replace, prepend / append, split, join, slice, truncate, round, multiply, format currency, fallback / default value. - AI‑assisted categorization for Google Product Category and product type, with deterministic overrides. - Lookup table actions to rewrite values in bulk. - Preview any rule against real products before publishing. - Versioning: changes are saved per channel and re‑applied on every export. ### Filtering - Include / exclude rules with the same operator set as mapping. - Exclude out‑of‑stock, low‑margin, draft or test products from specific channels. - Per‑channel filter sets — the master catalog stays untouched. ### Validation & feed review - Channel‑specific validators with the latest Google / Meta / TikTok / Bing specs. - Severity tiers: errors (block publishing), warnings (hurt quality / performance), info (recommended). - Issues grouped by type and by product, with deep links to the offending field. - Health score per channel (0–100) based on error coverage. - Channels dashboard aggregates the worst offenders across all shops. ### Output channels - **Google Shopping** — Merchant Center Next, multi‑country, supplemental feeds, automatic item updates. - **Meta Commerce Manager** — Catalog feeds for Facebook & Instagram Shops, Advantage+ catalogs. - **TikTok Shop** — Product feed for TikTok Shop and TikTok Ads catalog. - **Microsoft Advertising / Bing Shopping** — Merchant Center feed. - **Custom outputs** — any XML / CSV / TSV / JSON shape, served from a stable URL or pushed to SFTP. - Per‑channel scheduling, manual regeneration, and one‑click "show feed" debug view. ### Multi‑market feed management - One master catalog → many country / language / currency variants. - Per‑market overrides (price, title, description, availability, shipping). - Designed so brands stop duplicating catalogs per market. ### Scheduling & automation - Per‑shop automatic daily updates (limit depends on plan). - Per‑channel generation schedule independent of import schedule. - Cron‑based check‑schedules service with self‑healing retries. - Webhook ingest for near‑real‑time inventory and price changes (Shopify). ### Monitoring, alerts & admin - System health monitor running every 5 minutes (auth, DB, edge functions, scheduled imports, cron health, queue depth). - Per‑shop import success / failure tracking with 2‑hour rolling window. - Critical alerts emailed to super_admin role. - Admin console: shops, channels, imports, generations, billing, plans, usage, webhooks, audits, monitor. ### Free Feed Audit - A free, no‑signup audit at https://www.ironfeed.app/free-feed-audit. - Upload a feed URL or file → automated report with errors, warnings and benchmark comparisons against peers in the same vertical. - PDF deliverable. Used as a top‑of‑funnel lead magnet, but the report is genuinely useful. --- ## Pricing All plans include: feed import, mapping engine, validation, channel exports, public feed URLs, role‑based access, audit log, EU data residency.
