SKU & Planogram Accuracy

Smart retail and autonomous checkout systems rely heavily on accurate computer vision datasets to recognize products, prevent shrinkage, and verify shelf planograms in real time.

Engai delivers precision SKU bounding boxes, item interaction tracking, and shelf segmentation datasets that power seamless physical AI retail deployments worldwide.

Retail / Capabilities

Retail Core Solutions

Carefully annotated data for retail perception, automation and research.

01 / 04

Product recognition

Challenge

Products have similar packaging and change between catalog versions.

Our approach

Annotate product instances and map visible attributes to the current catalog.

Bounding boxes
Product recognition annotations
Product recognition

Retail label taxonomy

Define classes for products, shelf regions and checkout items, with visual examples and explicit boundary rules.

Capture-aware quality review

Review the effects of lighting, scale and occlusion in shelves, checkout counters and product catalogs.

Model-ready annotation data

Connect retail labels to source identifiers, scene metadata and the export schema your model uses.

Data Annotation for Retail

AI shelf monitoring

Label product facings, empty spaces and shelf boundaries for availability and planogram analysis.

Computer vision store analytics

Map display zones and observable shopper movement to support spatial analysis of store operations.

Checkout item recognition

Separate overlapping products into individual instances and connect them to a consistent product taxonomy.

Inventory condition inspection

Annotate damaged packaging, misplaced products and visible inventory discrepancies for review systems.

Retail AI assistants

Curate catalog attributes and reviewed product questions for search, support and store operations.

Careful work on the small details

The sample batch helped us agree on how to handle overlapping leaves and partially visible crops.

Having those edge cases discussed early would give our team a clearer baseline before scaling annotation.

Clear communication throughout

Our labeling requirements evolved as we reviewed the imagery. The feedback process felt straightforward.

Read more

A shared set of examples and regular checkpoints would help keep the dataset consistent across batches.

A practical approach to field data

Field images are rarely perfect. We appreciated the attention to shadows, occlusion and changes in lighting.

These are the details we would want a labeling partner to consider when preparing data for crop-monitoring models.
