Trust the data: Matches & Health
Matches — the comparison is only as good as the pairing
Before Kodak prices can be compared against a competitor, each Kodak product must be paired to a specific competitor product. This pairing is managed in ✓ Matches.
If the wrong competitor product is matched (e.g. a Kodak jacket paired against a competitor's bag), the price gap is meaningless. If no match exists, no gap is shown at all.
When reviewing a comparison, click through to Matches to confirm the paired product is genuinely equivalent — same or similar category, comparable specification. If it is wrong, the match needs to be corrected before you act on the gap.
Health — check the scraper ran before you act
Competitor prices are fetched automatically by scrapers that run on a schedule. The ◈ Health section shows:
- Whether each competitor's scraper ran successfully on its last cycle.
- When prices were last updated.
If a scraper failed or has not run recently, the competitor price you see in Comparison is stale — it may be days or weeks old. Do not propose pricing adjustments based on stale data. Check Health first if any number looks unusual.

Matches —— 比較結果取決於配對是否正確
在比較 Kodak 與競爭對手的價格之前，每件 Kodak 產品必須先與特定競爭對手產品配對。這個配對在 ✓ Matches 中管理。
若配對了錯誤的競爭對手產品（例如 Kodak 外套配對了對手的袋款），價格差距便毫無意義。若沒有任何配對，則不會顯示任何差距。
審閱比較數據時，請點擊前往 Matches ，確認配對的競爭對手產品確實具有可比性 —— 類別相同或相近、規格相當。若配對有誤，必須先更正配對，才能根據差距採取行動。
Health —— 採取行動前先確認爬蟲正常運行
競爭對手的價格由爬蟲按排程自動抓取。◈ Health 分頁顯示：
- 各競爭對手的爬蟲在上一個週期是否成功執行。
- 價格的最後更新時間。
若爬蟲失敗或長時間未執行，你在 Comparison 中看到的競爭對手價格便是舊數據 —— 可能已是數天甚至數週前的資料。不要根據過時數據提出定價調整建議。任何數字看起來異常時，請先檢查 Health 。
