How it works

Three steps. Three business days.

You upload any product photo, from Etsy, Shopify, Instagram or Gumroad. The free scan shows how many possible matches turn up. If you order the report, a person checks every match, and a dated report with a pre-filled takedown worksheet lands in your inbox.

The three steps

What happens, and when.

Each step is short and plain. You do the first one. We do the rest.

  1. Step 1, Day 0

    You run a free scan

    Add up to 5 product photos from anywhere you sell. We show how many possible matches turn up on each marketplace. If you order the report, you can add up to 20 photos in total. There is no account to make and no shop to connect.

    • Free scan: up to 5 photos
    • Report: up to 20 photos
    • No account, no shop connection
    Your photos10 of 20 added

    JPG, PNG or WEBP. Sample photos only.

  2. Step 2, Day 1 to 2

    We search and a person reviews

    We search AliExpress, Shein, Amazon and Etsy with your photos, using Google Lens and marketplace image search. A person then looks at every possible match beside your original and sorts it. Temu is not searched yet.

  3. Step 3, Day 3

    Your dated report arrives

    Your Copycat Report is emailed with each possible match, the date we captured it, a direct link, your own listing dates and a pre-filled takedown worksheet for one marketplace, which you submit yourself.

    • Dated captures and direct links
    • Your listing dates as dated evidence

The person review

What the reviewer looks at.

Software finds candidates. A person decides what reaches you. Try a verdict on the sample below.

Ocean wave graphic teeExample

Similar but not identical. You know your work best.

The three verdicts

  • Possible match

    Looks like your design. It goes in your report with its capture.

  • Needs your look

    Similar but not identical. It goes in your report so you can decide.

  • Not a match

    Not your design. We leave it out so your report stays clear.

  • 01

    Same artwork

    Is it your design, even if the photo, colour or product is different?

  • 02

    Same pattern

    Is the pattern, layout or arrangement yours, piece by piece?

  • 03

    Cropped or edited

    Has your design been cropped, flipped or placed on a new product?

  • 04

    Only similar

    Is it close but not identical? Then it is marked for your own look.

Where we search

Four marketplaces. Temu is not searched yet.

We tell you exactly where we looked, so you know what the report covers and what it does not.

Honest limits

What a report cannot do.

Better to know now than to be surprised later.

  • We cannot

    Find every copy

    No service can promise that. We search four marketplaces carefully and say exactly where we looked. No matches found is never a promise that you are in the clear.

  • We cannot

    Search Temu

    Temu is not searched yet. Listings there will not appear in your report.

  • We cannot

    Give legal advice

    We are not a law firm. A report is dated evidence of what we saw, not legal advice.

  • We cannot

    Act for you

    We do not file reports or contact sellers. The worksheet helps you do it yourself.

  • We cannot

    Review the free scan

    The free scan is automated and not reviewed, and shows only a count. Only the Copycat Report has a person on every match.

  • We cannot

    Keep your photos forever

    Your photos are deleted 90 days after delivery. We never sell or reuse them.

Start with a free scan.

The free scan checks up to 5 designs in under a minute and shows the count. The full report covers up to 20 photos for $29.
