Simple pipeline: store SKU data in Google Sheets (title, bullets, specs, qty). Zapier triggers on new/updated rows → use ChatGPT action with a prompt template (include SKU, features, tone, max length) to generate descriptions → Zapier Shopify action to create/update product, set tags (e.g., “auto-desc”, category) and sync inventory. QA: run small batches, add a “review” tag for manual checks and log outputs for rollback.
