What to do

Versions of the same product

Check complete products

• Check how similar ingredients lists are to what is detected
• Check if brands are suggested that are not here (eg Umbrella brands)
• Extract addresses
• Extract URLs

Suggest values for incomplete products

• Try to suggest possible categories based on extracted text
• Try to suggest brands, both based on the Brand JSON field and on Raw text extraction

Search engine (internal/external) considerations

• Add raw output as hidden text to enable search engine to index incomplete products
• Add hidden field to enable the internal search engine to find incomplete products
