Frequently asked questions

What is a UNSPSC code?

A UNSPSC (United Nations Standard Products and Services Code) is an 8-digit code that classifies any product or service into a global standard hierarchy. The first 2 digits are the Segment, digits 3–4 are the Family, digits 5–6 are the Class, and digits 7–8 are the Commodity.

How do I find the right UNSPSC code for a product?

Paste a clear description of the product or service into the lookup tool above. The AI engine returns the best matching 8-digit commodity code, along with the full hierarchy path and a confidence level.

Is this UNSPSC lookup tool free?

Yes. The tool is completely free for individual queries. For bulk classification — processing thousands of invoice lines — Pearstop offers an automated classification service.

How accurate is the UNSPSC code suggestion?

The tool returns a confidence level with each result: high, medium, or low. High-confidence results are typically correct at commodity level. For bulk classification at production accuracy (90–95%), Pearstop's full service uses additional signals beyond the description text.

What is the difference between segments, families, classes, and commodities?

Segment (2 digits) is the broadest — e.g. 72 is Construction and Maintenance. Family (4 digits) narrows it — 7210 is Building and Facility Maintenance. Class (6 digits) is more specific — 721015 is Electrical Systems Maintenance. Commodity (8 digits) is the most precise — 72101505 is Lighting Maintenance Services.
