01
Product feeds are more than a file upload
A valid record needs stable identity, a useful title and description, a resolvable landing page and image, price/currency, availability and market scope. Magnify also treats product metadata as an optimization surface rather than static plumbing.
02
Use ads_metadata deliberately
OpenAI documents ads_metadata as a way to add additional product organization. For ecommerce operators, this is where lifecycle, margin band, merchandising group or other durable business segmentation can become useful — provided the fields remain accurate and operationally maintained.
03
One catalog, channel-specific interpretation
Google Shopping and ChatGPT Ads both depend on structured product data, but they do not use identical delivery logic. The useful architecture is one canonical product record plus channel-specific enrichment and measurement.
