Choose brand protection by scope, not by feature count.
Recon covers three surfaces around one Shopify brand. These vendors cover wider programs. The wider scope is valuable when you need it.
- Can someone email your customers as you?
- Lookalikes
- Is there a fake version of your store?
- Trust
- Do browsers and ad platforms still trust you?

Five questions before the demo call
A clear scope prevents you from buying channels and services your team will not use.
- 1Are marketplaces or social platforms part of the problem?
- 2Do you need a vendor to submit and manage enforcement?
- 3Are you managing one Shopify brand or a portfolio of brands and domains?
- 4Does the inbox matter as much as the storefront?
- 5Can your own team review and send an abuse report?
Recon fits the focused Shopify case.
Use it when one team needs to monitor email identity, fake storefronts, suspicious redirects, checkout paths, and the reputation of one domain. Recon prepares evidence and templates; the merchant sends the report.
