Fortune 500 FMCG case study

From a brittle black box to a pipeline the client controls.

The previous deterministic solution was expensive, unreliable, and difficult to modify. Phinest replaced it with a flexible extraction pipeline that made changes faster and reduced the cost of working with the system.

See the evidence and architecture
01 / Prove

Started with a small client data sample, iterative demos, and comparison against existing validated values.

02 / Scale

Expanded across 4.71M+ products and unlocked nine additional reliable attributes: most for EQV calculations, others for product understanding and potential matching.

03 / Control

Delivered client-owned code and configuration, plus an interface for reviewing and correcting extracted values.

The starting engagement

Prove it before you fund production.

A short first engagement tests the solution on real client data before time and money go into architecture and scale.

01

Prove the hard part

Start with a representative sample, the attributes that matter, and an agreed evaluation method. Build enough to see what works and where it fails.

02

Build after the evidence

Invest in architecture, scale, integrations, review tooling, and operations only after the core extraction approach has proven itself.

The proof answers four questions.

Can the required attributes be recovered from the available data?

How well does the approach hold up against manually checked data?

Which source gaps and edge cases will remain?

Is the result strong enough to justify production investment?

What gets built

More than a model call.

The result is a working product-data pipeline with extraction, validation, review, and integration designed together.

Flexible extraction

Extract product attributes from descriptions and images across inconsistent third-party data sources.

Validation and review

Check outputs against controlled vocabularies, detect bundles, and let reviewers correct values with an explanation.

Production integration

Run the pipeline in the enterprise data stack with logged runs, inspectable configuration, and ongoing maintenance.

Enterprise control

Own the pipeline. See how it works. Change it quickly.

The Fortune 500 deployment replaced a provider-controlled black box with a system the client can inspect and configure.

Client-owned

The client holds the pipeline code and configuration rather than receiving results from an opaque provider.

Reviewable

A purpose-built interface lets users filter results, update extracted values, and record explanations.

Operable

Runs are logged with completion metadata, while Phinest can continue maintaining the working system.

Start with a small sample, not a large commitment.

Prove the extraction approach on real data before investing in production architecture, integrations, and scale.
