The challenge
A D2C brand needed fresh product data in the CMS without manual imports, plus a simple way for the team to kick off scrapes from chat.
The approach
Built scraping pipelines into Directus collections and wired a Discord bot that triggers scrape runs. Content and automation share one admin surface.
The outcome
Editors get up-to-date catalogue data; ops trigger scrapes from Discord instead of cron guesswork.
