How It Works

This website uses artificial intelligence, powered by Linkup, to help users determine if an online store is likely running a dropshipping business. It analyzes key indicators like shipping delays, generic or inconsistent product images, vague policies, and missing company information.

By reviewing multiple elements of a store (FAQ, Terms, product pages, reviews) the AI flags patterns commonly found in low-transparency or deceptive dropshipping websites.

Important: AI Limitations

While our AI analysis provides valuable insights, it has limitations and should not be taken as absolute truth. The results should be used as a starting point for your own research.

We strongly recommend:

  • Using our checklist as guidance for what to look out for, not as definitive proof
  • Performing manual reverse image searches (AI has limitations with image analysis)
  • Searching for the store name on Google and Reddit for customer experiences
  • Reading recent reviews from multiple trusted sources
  • Being cautious with your personal and payment information

Important: Just because a store is not classified as dropshipping it does not guarantee that it sells quality products. Our tool only analyzes the business model, not product quality or customer satisfaction.

Why Use AI

AI isn't free, it has a real cost, both financially and environmentally. But by helping people avoid scammy or misleading stores, this tool contributes to reducing unnecessary returns, overproduction, and low-quality purchases.

The goal is to push for better, more ethical alternatives, whether local, transparent, or higher quality.
