Nebulae Health Intelligence Module

Aperture helps teams see catalog and asset gaps before customers do.

Aperture is the catalog and digital asset health command center inside Nebulae. It gives automotive teams a clearer lens into image coverage, folder gaps, metadata quality, colorspace readiness, 360° asset depth, Azure sync gaps, and historical catalog health trends.

What Aperture monitors

Aperture is designed to move catalog health from guesswork into visibility. Instead of waiting for missing assets or technical issues to surface later, teams can identify the exact brands, parts, files, and diagnostics that need attention.

Coverage

Image gaps

Identify active parts missing live digital assets, separate active and inactive issues, and generate exportable lists for cleanup.

  • Missing image diagnostics
  • Active vs. inactive visibility
  • CSV and Excel export support
Structure

VSDAM folder gaps

Surface structural folder issues where parts are expected in the digital asset system but the supporting folder structure is missing.

  • Brand-level folder gap tracking
  • Missing VSDAM folder diagnostics
  • Health status by brand
Readiness

Asset coverage health

View catalog deficit percentage, image coverage percentage, and brand-level health progress so teams can prioritize work.

  • Coverage percentage
  • Catalog deficit percentage
  • Brand health progress bars
Technical Quality

Colorspace issues

Detect assets that may not be web-ready, including CMYK warnings, grayscale assets, and brand-level quality composition.

  • sRGB health tracking
  • CMYK warning detection
  • Grayscale reshoot candidates
Metadata

PIES asset metadata

Audit blank PIES asset types, asset status, metadata health, and whether parts have 360-degree asset coverage.

  • PIES asset type checks
  • Metadata warning visibility
  • 360° coverage indicator
Cloud Sync

Azure blob gaps

Compare expected VSDAM files against Azure Blob output to identify missing JPGs, missing 360° spins, missing diagrams, and naming warnings.

  • Missing JPG detection
  • Missing 360° ZIP detection
  • Diagram and naming warnings

A command center for catalog health

Aperture gives users a dashboard-style view of health metrics and then lets them drill into the details behind the numbers.

Audit modules inside Aperture

Each audit area gives catalog and asset teams a different lens into quality, readiness, and operational risk.

Gap Analysis

Image Gap Analysis

Shows parts currently missing live digital assets and explains why they are missing with clear diagnostic notes.

Quality

Colorspace Audit

Monitors active assets for sRGB, CMYK, and grayscale conditions so teams can identify technical quality issues.

Metadata

Metadata Audit

Checks asset metadata health, including blank PIES asset types and 360-degree asset coverage indicators.

Technical Grid

VSDAM Information Grid

Provides a detailed technical breakdown of asset types, image counts, image buckets, P04 counts, DRW counts, 360 counts, and colorspaces.

Asset Depth

360° & Still Image Depth

Measures visual depth by separating parts with 360° assets from parts without 360° assets and grouping still-image depth.

Cloud Audit

PMT Blob Audit

Compares expected VSDAM files against cloud output and surfaces missing JPGs, missing 360° spins, diagrams, and naming warnings.

Drilldown

Asset Detail View

Lets users drill into an individual part and review asset file details such as PIES type, filename, orientation, background, resolution, colorspace, and publish status.

History

Historical Health Tracking

Tracks folder gaps, image coverage, Azure sync gaps, brand health, and 360° depth snapshots over time.

Track improvement over time

Aperture does not only show what is wrong today. It also supports historical visibility so teams can understand whether catalog health is improving, drifting, or getting worse.

Trend

Image coverage history

Monitor catalog image coverage percentages across snapshots and show whether cleanup work is improving the catalog.

Trend

Folder gap history

Track active and inactive folder gaps by brand to identify structural issues that persist over time.

Trend

Azure sync history

Review cloud sync gaps, missing file types, and naming warnings across historical snapshots.

Marketing position

Aperture turns catalog health into a measurable system. Teams can see where problems exist, export the cleanup work, drill into the details, and prove improvement over time.

Business value

Aperture gives Nebulae a strong operational story: better visibility, faster cleanup, fewer surprises, and more confidence before data or assets reach customers.

Client Value

Find the work that needs attention

Instead of manually searching for missing assets, weak coverage, technical quality issues, or sync gaps, Aperture turns those problems into focused action lists.

  • Faster catalog cleanup
  • Better image readiness
  • Clearer brand-level prioritization
  • Exportable audit results
Investor Value

A visible quality layer for the platform

Aperture strengthens Nebulae by adding a quality intelligence layer around product content, digital assets, cloud delivery, and historical performance.

  • Strong visual demo potential
  • Clear operational pain point
  • Natural expansion into reporting
  • Complements Quasar PIM workflows

How Aperture connects to Quasar

Together, Quasar and Aperture create a stronger product story. Quasar manages the catalog. Aperture checks the health of the catalog.

Quasar

Manage the catalog

Quasar supports catalog and PIM workflows including base parts, applications, attributes, ACES exports, PIES exports, and future import/load sheet workflows.

Aperture

Measure catalog readiness

Aperture monitors whether the catalog and supporting digital assets are complete, technically sound, properly synced, and improving over time.

A clearer lens into catalog readiness

Aperture helps automotive teams detect missing content, technical asset issues, cloud sync problems, and historical health trends before they become customer-facing problems.
