What is Akeneo?
Akeneo is product information management software for brands, retailers and manufacturers that sell across many channels. Its AI generates and enriches product content, tags assets, extracts supplier data and maps products to channel requirements.
Akeneo's Product Cloud centralizes product data, digital assets and supplier onboarding and syndicates content to marketplaces, webshops and retail partners. Supplier Data Manager handles incoming supplier files, and PX Insights in higher tiers analyzes consumer signals. The company, Akeneo SAS, is based in Nantes, France, and customers shown on the website include American Eagle, Clarks, Snipes, Fanatics and Staples. Besides the paid cloud packages, Akeneo maintains a free open source Community Edition.

Questions to ask before you buy Akeneo
Akeneo holds ISO/IEC 27001:2022 but only a SOC 2 Type I report, and the hosting region on Google Cloud is not stated publicly; ask for both details and the data processing agreement. Clarify which AI features and model options are in your package, since the package comparison lists several of them, such as Supplier Data Manager, content generation and asset tagging, as add-ons.
