How it works
Three steps from messy supplier file to Shopify-ready products.
Upload
Drop your CSV, XLSX, or XLS file. Portaim detects encoding, headers, and sheets automatically.
Map, validate, fix
AI maps columns to Shopify fields. 40+ rules catch errors. One-click fixes and smart suggestions resolve issues.
Export
Download a clean Shopify-formatted CSV or export directly to your store via API.
Built for Shopify merchants who import products
If you receive product data from suppliers and need to get it into Shopify, Portaim is for you.
Dropshippers
Importing catalogs from multiple suppliers with inconsistent formats, languages, and data quality.
Store owners
Adding new product lines from wholesalers without spending hours reformatting spreadsheets.
Repeat importers
Getting updated catalogs monthly from the same supplier. Save your mapping template and reuse it instantly.
Probably not for you if:
- You import products only once or twice a year
- Your supplier files are already in Shopify's CSV format
- You already have an import workflow you're happy with
Without Portaim vs. with Portaim
- • Open supplier file in Excel, figure out which columns map where
- • Manually rename headers to match Shopify's CSV template
- • Fix price formats, status values, weight units row by row
- • Upload to Shopify, get cryptic errors, go back and fix more
- • Repeat for every supplier, every month
- • Upload file — AI maps columns automatically, even in other languages
- • 40+ validation rules catch every issue before Shopify sees the file
- • One-click auto-fix for prices, formatting, status values
- • Download a clean CSV that Shopify accepts on the first try
- • Save your mapping — next month, same supplier takes seconds
Upload any supplier file

AI maps your columns automatically
Works across 70+ languages. German headers, French descriptions, Spanish product names — AI reads them all. Confidence scores tell you what's certain and what to double-check.
Instant reuse for repeat suppliers
Same supplier file next month? Your mapping is saved and applied automatically. Zero setup on repeat imports.
40+ rules catch errors before Shopify does
Invalid prices, duplicate SKUs, broken URLs, bad SEO titles, wrong inventory policies — every field is checked against what Shopify actually accepts.
One-click auto-fix
Currency symbols, comma decimals, smart quotes, ALL CAPS — fixed automatically. See exactly what changed, undo individually.
Bulk resolve with smart suggestions
"Published" to "active" — applied to all 47 matching rows at once. Presets for common Shopify patterns. No row-by-row editing.
AI generates missing content — in your language
SEO titles, descriptions, image alt text, tags. AI detects your file language (70+ supported) and generates in it. No translation step.
