Add-on that automatically adds descriptions based on UPC?

[Platypyrus]

Best way to get product descriptions? Is it standard practice to copy/paste each one from the vendor websites item by item (700 products)?

I was imagining there was some kind of universal database or maybe an add-on that can search for standard product names and match it with a description (sort of like movie and music databases) but I haven’t seen anything like that.

Hi Platypyrus, 

For product descriptions this app might help - ConvertMate (apps.shopify.com/convertmate). The value we bring is the following: 
- We instantly create and improve (for conversion and SEO) all your product descriptions, 

- We improve them in time to make sure they are always the best converting descriptions. We basically have an algorithm that changes the least performing descriptions, 

- we also handle meta tags and URL for better organic search ranking. 

We have a lot of fashion stores with 1000 and plus products using us. You only need two / three words as the original description. Our AI creates a unique descriptions from this. 
I am the cofounder of the app, so any questions I am here to help. 

Hope this answer helps. 

Kind regards, 

Marc
