FREE PREFLIGHT

Give the import a second set of eyes.

Choose or paste a CSV. The free scan reports local counts only; it does not create an import file.

GUARDRAILS, NOT GUESSWORK

What the local preflight does - and deliberately does not - do.

Scans locally
It checks required values, basic number formats, option pairs, normalized SKU collisions, and ambiguous weight values.
Fails closed
Unclosed quotes, malformed rows, duplicate headers, duplicate normalized SKUs, and incomplete variant pairs are not guessed.
Leaves taxonomy alone
Supplier categories remain audit-only. This tool does not claim a verified Shopify taxonomy mapping.
Never imports
Catalog Guard has no store credentials, live import, Shopify affiliation, certification, or outcome guarantee.
