System and method for retrieving and normalizing product information
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- one or more processors and executable instructions accessible on a computer-readable medium that, when executed, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising;
in response to a receipt of a user indication of a product, selecting, by a computer system, a normalized representation of the product, the normalized representation is based on product information that is collected from two or more suppliers and described differently by the two or more suppliers;
based on the normalized representation, identifying a plurality of offerings for the product, the plurality of offerings including offerings from the two or more suppliers that describe the product differently;
causing presentation, via a user interface, information that corresponds to the plurality of offerings for the product.

Abstract
Systems and a method for retrieving and normalizing product information are described. The method selects a normalized representation of a product. The selecting is responsive to receiving a user indication of the product. The normalized representation is based on product information that is collected from two or more suppliers and described differently by the two or more suppliers. The method further identifies a plurality of offerings for the product based on the normalized representation. The plurality of offerings includes offerings from the two or more suppliers that describe the product differently. Finally, a user interface includes information corresponding to the plurality of offerings for the product.
