## Docs

- [What makes good source data](https://docs.bigcommerce.com/developer/docs/ai-tools/catalog-enrichment/before-you-enrich/source-data.md): Why enrichment output is capped by input quality, what a workable product record contains, and what to fix before you spend entitlements.
- [Planning your batches](https://docs.bigcommerce.com/developer/docs/ai-tools/catalog-enrichment/before-you-enrich/planning-batches.md): How to group products into enrichments, match context specificity to batch variety, and sequence a catalog against the 250-product limit.
- [Planning entitlements](https://docs.bigcommerce.com/developer/docs/ai-tools/catalog-enrichment/before-you-enrich/entitlements.md): How entitlements are consumed and expire, and how to plan purchases against a catalog rather than buying ahead of a plan.
