workflow: bulk product descriptions with ChatGPT + Jasper

Recommendation (short):
Use ChatGPT to generate structured drafts in JSON (one record per SKU), run those through Jasper for brand-template enforcement and final formatting, then run automated dedupe/semantic-similarity checks with embeddings before a human QA pass. Prioritize SKUs by traffic/value and use batch sizes sized to your rate limits and QA capacity.

Why this works
- ChatGPT: fast, cheap initial drafts from structured inputs.
- Jasper: enforces brand templates, tone, and formatting consistently across outputs.
- Embedding-based dedupe: catches paraphrase-level duplicates that keyword checks miss.

Decision criteria (pick by budget / team / quality):
- High-quality / low throughput: batches of 50 SKUs; 10–20% human QA; stricter thresholds.
- Medium: 200–500 SKUs batches; 5% QA sampling + automated spot checks.
- Low-budget / high-speed: 1,000+ SKUs with small sample QA; accept more automated fixes.
Choose smaller batches and more human checks for premium product lines.

Practical pipeline (stepwise)
1) Data prep: export CSV with SKU, title, bullets (specs/benefits), target keywords, brand voice tag, category, primary image URL. Normalize values.
2) Prioritize: sort by search volume, margin, seasonality. Start with top 10–20%.
3) ChatGPT draft step (JSON output): send batches (50–200 SKUs depending on API limits). Use a system + user prompt that requires strict JSON return. Example prompt template:
System: “You are a senior ecommerce copywriter for {brand}. Tone: {voice}. Target audience: {audience}. SEO focus: include primary keyword and 2 related keywords. Output ONLY JSON array.”
User: “Input: [{sku, title, bullets, keywords, category, image_url}]. For each item return {sku, h1, short_description(30–60w), long_description(80–150w), 3_variations(short 20–40w), meta_description(120 chars), keywords_used}. Keep unique phrasing per variation.”
4) Jasper templating: ingest the JSON drafts into Jasper for strict template enforcement: heading tags, bullet order, CTAs, brand phrase insertion, spelling/grammar, and to produce any channel-specific variants (site, marketplace, feed).
5) Dedupe + semantic check: compute embeddings for all SKU descriptions (OpenAI embeddings or your chosen embed model). Methods:
- Exact duplicates: hash(normalized text) -> flag.
- Semantic duplicates: cosine similarity >0.85 = review; >0.95 = likely duplicate/replace. Cluster high-similarity groups and flag the lowest-traffic SKU in each cluster for rewriting.
6) Rules-based filters: banned claims, price mentions, sizing conflicts. Auto-flag for human review.
7) QA sampling: human editors review 5–10% on medium projects; fix and fold fixes back into prompts as examples.
8) Publish and monitor CTR / conversion; retrain prompt examples from top performers.

Best-for / Avoid-if
- Best for: mid/large catalogs where consistency + speed matter.
- Avoid if: you need legally vetted claims (medical/regulated) or hyper-customized copy per SKU without automation.

Checklist (deployable):
- [ ] Prepare normalized CSV with required fields
- [ ] Create system + user prompt templates and a JSON schema
- [ ] Choose batch size (start 50–200) and test
- [ ] Run drafts in ChatGPT and save JSON outputs
- [ ] Enforce templates in Jasper and export final text
- [ ] Run embedding dedupe and rules filters (thresholds set)
- [ ] Human QA sample and fix prompt examples
- [ ] Publish and monitor metrics

If you want, I can draft the exact system+user prompt JSON template and a sample embedding-dedupe script outline next.
