Onedot announces a strategic partnership with Y1, a leading digital commerce partner specializing in enterprise transformation for retail brands.
This collaboration marks a powerful combination of Onedot’s advanced data automation technology with Y1’s strategic and technical expertise, designed to help businesses accelerate digital transformation, optimize product data quality, and achieve faster time-to-market.
A Partnership Built on Shared Vision
The partnership between Onedot and Y1 brings together complementary strengths: Onedot’s AI-powered data onboarding and harmonization platform and Y1’s proven experience in commerce architecture, platform migration (especially Shopware 6), and digital growth strategy. Together, the two companies are setting a new standard for data-driven, intelligent commerce ecosystems.
“Y1’s ability to translate complex technology into measurable business value aligns perfectly with our mission at Onedot,” said Bernhard Bicher, Founder & CEO of Onedot. “Together, we’re making product data automation not just a back-end process, but a strategic growth driver for our customers.”
Why This Partnership Matters
By combining Y1’s consultative approach with Onedot’s AI-driven automation, clients benefit from:
- Up to 5x faster product data onboarding, reducing manual maintenance costs
- Higher conversion rates through cleaner, enriched product content
- Lower operational complexity with automated validation, normalization, and syndication across PIM, ERP, and commerce systems
Y1’s expertise in system integration and digital experience design complements Onedot’s intelligent data processing, enabling seamless workflows that connect suppliers, platforms, and sales channels in a single, efficient flow.
Y1’s support in digital supplier maturity assessment, prioritisation of the right supplier and products and definition of suitable content target operating model, play a crucial role in maximising the operational benefit of the Onedot platform.
What It Means for Customers
For enterprise retailers and manufacturers this collaboration delivers a streamlined digital journey, from supplier data to shelf-ready product experiences.
The integrated solution supports:
- Automated data collection and enrichment from multiple sources
- Consistent, validated product information across every channel
- Faster time-to-market and reduced onboarding bottlenecks
- Use of humans in the loop at the right place to maximize business impact
Ultimately, customers can focus less on fixing data and more on growing their business.
Shared Goals and Long-Term Vision
Y1 views this partnership as a natural evolution of its mission to help clients succeed through connected, customer-centric commerce. The joint vision with Onedot is clear: to establish data excellence as the foundation for digital success.
“With Onedot, we can now elevate how our clients handle product information, from messy, inconsistent data to strategic assets that fuel commerce,” said Sebastian Wohlrapp, CEO of Y1. “This partnership allows us to break silos between marketing, operations, and data, making digital transformation tangible and measurable.”
In the long term, Onedot and Y1 aim to build a best-in-class ecosystem for intelligent, tailor-made product data content across Europe, empowering organizations to digitize, scale, and innovate more effectively.
