Spring 2026 Release: responsive catalog modeling, BYO-LLM sourcing

Catalog data model now auto-adjusts from retailer rejection logs and search trends; new Flexible AI Sourcing lets enterprises plug own LLM provider (OpenAI, Claude, or other) into enrichment instead of a fixed vendor model. New Upsun-based Extension Platform hosts custom backend apps (ERP integrations, compliance checks) inside Akeneo infra.

Pimcore Copilot (2024) already lets teams plug in OpenAI/Google/HuggingFace or custom-trained models for enrichment — Akeneo's bring-your-own-LLM sourcing arrives ~2 years later Pimcore →
