Adding Products Without Shopify

How to add products to Cuttable via CSV import or by creating them manually on the Products page.

Written by Libby

If you are not using Shopify, or you want to add products outside of your Shopify catalog, Cuttable gives you two ways to get products in: CSV import for adding multiple products at once, or manual creation for adding a single product by hand.


Upload products via CSV

Use CSV import to bring in multiple products at once.

  • Go to Products
    Navigate to the Products tab to access and manage your product listings.

  • Click Import
    In the top-right corner, select Import to start adding products in bulk.

  • Download the CSV template
    If needed, download the provided template to ensure your product data is formatted correctly.

    • Each row should represent one product.

    • Required fields include product name, SKU, description, and at least one image.

    Below is an example of what our default template will look like, fill in the information accordingly to ensure a smooth upload to Cuttable.

  • Upload your file
    Drag and drop your completed CSV, or browse to upload it directly.

  • Match the fields
    After uploading, you'll see a screen where you can confirm each column is mapped correctly (e.g., Name, SKU, Description, Images, URL). Adjust as needed.

  • Confirm & import
    Click Create Product(s) to finish.


Add a product manually

Manual product creation lets you add a single product directly on the Products page without a file upload.

  1. Go to Products in the left navigation.

  2. Click Add Product.

  3. Fill in the product details: name, description, price, and any other relevant fields.

  4. Upload product images. Images upload in parallel and each image shows a progress bar while it processes.

  5. Click Create. The product appears in your product list immediately.

After the product is created, Cuttable analyzes it and generates AI features in the background. While this is in progress, the product displays a Generating features badge. Once complete, the product is ready to use in ads.

To delete a product, select the product and click Delete. The product is removed from the list immediately.


What happens next

  • Your products will appear in the Products tab.

  • Cuttable will run analysis on each product (usually takes 5–10 minutes).

  • Once processed, you can start generating ads using those products.
