Vendably's bulk generation wizard lets you generate titles, descriptions, or full product content for up to 1,000 products at once. The job runs in the background, so you do not need to stay on the page while it processes. Each product in the job follows the same AI generation process as single-product generation, applying your Brand Voice configuration throughout.
Before you start
Bulk generation consumes AI credits. Vendably shows you a cost estimate before the job runs, and you must accept it before submitting. The estimate is based on the number of products matched and the job type selected.
Your Brand Voice configuration applies to every product in the job. Configuring it fully before running a bulk job produces more consistent, higher-quality results.
Running a bulk generation job
The wizard has four stages.
Stage 1: Job type
- Go to Content > Generate (
/content/generate/). - Choose the channel.
- Choose the job type: titles only, descriptions only, or full product (titles and descriptions together).
Stage 2: Product selection
Choose products using one of three methods:
- By condition: build a rule directly in the wizard, for example "Category equals Shoes AND Price greater than 50". The wizard shows the match count and a sample of matched products as you build the rule.
- By saved condition: pick a rule you have already saved in the Rules Engine. Vendably applies the same rule and shows the current match count.
- By manual search: search by product title or SKU and select individual products.
Confirm the match count and product sample before continuing.
Stage 3: Cost preview
Vendably calculates the estimated total cost in GBP for the job and shows sample products from your selection. Review the estimate carefully. Select Accept and continue to proceed. You cannot submit without accepting the cost.
Stage 4: Submit
Select Submit job. Vendably creates the job and begins processing in the background. You are taken to the job status page.
Monitoring a job
The job status page updates live and shows:
- Overall progress (products processed out of total).
- Success and failure counts.
- Per-product errors for any products that failed.
You can cancel a running job from the status page. Products already processed before cancellation are not rolled back; generated content for those products is saved as drafts.
What Vendably applies automatically
Vendably validates the product list when the job is submitted, processes products in batches, calls AI generation per product using your full Brand Voice configuration, and records the actual cost against the job when it completes.
Limitations
- The wizard draft is not saved if you log out before submitting. Complete the wizard in one session.
- A failed job is not retried automatically. Create a new job targeting only the products that failed.
Troubleshooting
Job failed for some products: open the per-product error log on the job status page. Each failed product shows a reason. Create a new job targeting those specific products using manual search, then resubmit.
No products matched: your condition is too narrow. Go back to Stage 2 and loosen the rule, for example by removing a price filter or broadening the category.
Cost estimate is higher than expected: reduce the product count by tightening the condition, or change the job type from "full product" to titles or descriptions only.
