See every featureBulkPilot helps merchants manage store data by providing tools for bulk editing, importing, and exporting products, inventory, and related information. Merchants can upload CSV or Excel files, map fields, preview changes, and apply updates in bulk. The app also allows exporting data in multiple formats and supports scheduled exports for recurring workflows.
CSV files from suppliers rarely match your store's expected format, forcing merchants to reformat spreadsheets manually before importing. ImportIQ reads your file and uses AI to detect column meanings, then maps them to standard product fields, including title, SKU, vendor, and inventory. Review and adjust the mapping before confirming. Imports run in the background so you can continue working.
- Import with preview Upload files and review changes before applying updates.
- Flexible export Export product data in multiple formats for reporting or backup.
- Bulk edit products Edit prices, inventory, tags, and more in a table view.
- Batch processing Process large updates in controlled batches with progress track
- Import products from any CSV format without reformatting
- AI detects and maps your columns to the correct product fields
- Review and adjust column mapping before anything is saved
- Imports run in the background — no waiting in the browser
