NS Shopify child-product safety Northstar Safety

Platform

The workflow Northstar owns every month

Northstar is intentionally narrow. It gives the merchant one operating layer between Shopify, product evidence, official alerts, and the internal decision trail.

Catalog

Shopify products become product workspaces

Northstar pulls real product and variant records into a view the operator can actually use. That means product titles, SKUs, variants, supplier context, and jurisdiction notes stay attached to the same record.

Evidence

Current, missing, or needs review

Each product gets a plain-language checklist so a merchant can quickly see whether a document is on file, stale, or still missing.

Alerts

Official notices with practical match review

Northstar ingests official safety or recall signals and links them to likely catalog products with a confidence score and human-readable rationale.

Cases

Investigations stay explainable

When a product-alert pair matters, Northstar stores the owner, decision, notes, source links, and action trail in one investigation record.

What the operator sees

Labels and next steps written for normal people

Readiness score

A simple way to show how much of a product's required evidence is current right now.

Possible match

A product-alert overlap that still needs a human to confirm or dismiss.

Investigation

The case record that holds the written internal trail once a match matters enough to act on.
