How it sells itself

Shopify has no undo, and a price that drops by a decimal point looks completely normal in a product list. Guard records your whole catalogue the moment you install it, watches for price and stock changes, and works out how much stock value each change affects. Ordinary trading stays quiet. A bulk update that empties your margin does not.

Rewindly automatically captures a full snapshot of every product create, update, and delete - no setup, no theme edits. It alerts you to risky changes (big value drops, draft flips, zero inventory, bulk edits) in an in-app feed and by email, lets you compare versions and undo mistakes in one click, and keeps your full edit history. For EU/UK markets it tracks the 30-day lowest value for Omnibus compliance.

Key points
  • Alerts arrive within minutes of a change, not the next morning
  • Every change is ranked by how much stock value it affects
  • One click in the alert restores the previous prices
  • One email per bulk update instead of one email per product
  • Automatic product change tracking: every edit captured, no setup needed
  • Smart alerts for typos, draft flips, zero stock & bulk edits
  • One-click undo, version compare, and EU Omnibus price compliance
