Catalog sync
Live Shopify productsEvery product becomes a safety workspace with evidence status, alerts, and action history.
Private pilot software for child-product merchants
Keep every Shopify SKU, missing safety document, and official alert in one operating system.
Northstar Safety turns catalog sync, evidence tracking, recall review, and investigation logging into one monthly workflow for child-product teams.
Shopify-first
US + Canada focus
Child-product pilot
Evidence queue
Missing proof by SKUSee what is missing, stale, or ready to review before the next retailer, regulator, or recall question arrives.
Operator review
Confirm or dismiss alert matchesNorthstar expects false positives and keeps written review reasons attached to the record.
Built around official sources
Northstar is designed around official recall and safety notice workflows rather than scraped social chatter.
Minimal Shopify access
The current pilot uses read-only product access. Northstar does not need customer or order data for its core workflow.
Software, not outsourced consulting
The product helps the merchant own the monthly process without turning into an endless service engagement.
Why teams use Northstar
The hard part is not finding documents. It is seeing what is missing, what matters, and what happened next.
Start from the real catalog
Northstar syncs Shopify products and variants so operators stop rebuilding the product list in spreadsheets.
Make evidence gaps visible
Each SKU gets an evidence checklist with current, stale, and missing states that are easy to explain to a normal operator.
Review official alerts with context
Official notices are matched to catalog items, then confirmed or dismissed with a practical written trail.
Open investigations only when needed
Northstar turns meaningful overlaps into an investigation record with owner, status, notes, and actions.
Stay useful even without a recall event
The evidence workflow still pays off on ordinary products because the team can prove what is covered by SKU.
Keep the process teachable
Labels, empty states, and next steps are written for merchants and operators, not just compliance specialists.
How it works
One workflow from Shopify to action trail
Import products and variants from Shopify or stay in demo mode while the app is being configured.
Add supplier, origin, age grade, and other details Shopify does not carry well enough for safety operations.
Keep certificates, lab reports, food-contact declarations, and other product evidence attached to the right SKU.
Refresh the signal feed, review matches, and record false-positive logic so future review stays faster.
For meaningful overlaps, assign an owner, capture the decision, and keep an internal action trail.
