For independent Shopify brands

Your designs are easy to copy. Finding the copies shouldn’t be hard.

Copywatch searches for products that look like yours and puts possible matches in one place. You decide what matters. If you want to act, it can prepare an editable takedown notice.

We’ll scan one public product first. No sign-in required.

Proof from a real scan

Is your artwork for sale in someone else’s store?

An original rabbits-on-scooters illustration by Lion & The Pear appeared in an Etsy listing selling a digital download. Copywatch surfaced the listing and placed it alongside the original for a clear side-by-side review.

Potential matches require human review and are not proof of infringement.

A note from the founder

It started with my partner’s artwork.

One evening, we found my partner’s artwork being sold on Etsy. It wasn’t the first time. Getting the copies removed was usually quick. Finding them was the hard part.

I built Copywatch to make finding, reviewing and acting on possible copies easier.

FAQ

Questions before you connect your store

Copywatch is monitoring and investigation software. It does not provide legal advice or make infringement decisions.
What does Copywatch monitor?

Copywatch imports the products you select from your public Shopify catalogue, then regularly searches the open web by image and product name so you do not have to keep hunting manually. It brings possible matches into one place for you to review.

Does a match prove that somebody copied me?

No. Copywatch takes care of the time-consuming search, then leaves the judgement to you. Each result is a possible match to review, not proof of copying or copyright infringement.

Which stores can I connect?

Copywatch currently imports publicly accessible Shopify catalogues. The store must be reachable without a customer login, and you should only connect catalogues you are authorised to manage.

What happens when a possible copy is found?

It appears in your review queue with the source, date and available context. You can dismiss it or mark it for action, add private notes and keep your decision attached if the same URL appears again.

Can Copywatch help me take a listing down?

Yes. When you decide a listing needs action, Copywatch uses the saved details and your notes to draft a calm takedown notice for you to review, edit and send. It never contacts the seller automatically or guarantees that a listing will be removed.
