Case study · Construction-tech platform (Europe)

How a construction-tech platform structures product specifications from weak-standard sources.

The challenge

Where things stood

Specification data came from manufacturers, suppliers, PDFs and inconsistent exports with no shared structure. The information existed, but could not be reliably queried, because the same field meant different things across products and sources — blocking search, comparison and technical decision support.

How Claro helped

What changed

Claro ingests product records and documents, aligns each source to the correct product entity, maps supplier-specific terminology to a shared schema, extracts and normalizes specification values with unit conversion, validates a confidence level on each one, and publishes the structured result through APIs or files.

Results

What it looks like today

A live, repeatable workflow turning weak-standard documentation into structured specifications.

Coverage that expands to new suppliers without rebuilding the extraction logic each time.

Software that can finally reason over specifications that used to live only inside a document.

What we took from this engagement

Software cannot reliably reason over specifications that remain embedded in documents or vary by supplier.

Claro's conclusion, not a customer statement.
