General Questions

Remove.tech combines real-time monitoring of marketplaces with identity-level and behavioural signals. It looks at how a seller behaves over time, how they list products, where they operate, and whether their activity matches known risky patterns.

On top of that, Remove.tech can detect red flags such as:

  • Reused or stolen product images
  • Cloned or lightly edited versions of official listings
  • Suspicious price points, bundles, or shipping patterns
  • Sellers repeatedly listing similar infringing items under different brands

By connecting this to verified identity, Remove.tech helps brands focus on the most serious counterfeit threats and the actors behind them, not just individual SKUs.

Remove.tech gives brands visibility into who is selling their products across marketplaces and whether those sellers are part of the authorised distribution network. It highlights unauthorised resellers, parallel imports, and grey-market channels where products are being sold outside agreed territories or price structures.

By combining seller identity, listing data, and geographic/behaviour signals, Remove.tech can:

  • Flag sellers operating in restricted territories
  • Reveal patterns of stock leakage from authorised channels
  • Identify resellers linked to known counterfeit or diversion activity

This gives legal, commercial, and brand protection teams the evidence they need to take targeted action, whether that’s enforcement, commercial renegotiation, or distribution tightening.

Yes. Remove.tech monitors how your product images, packaging, and creative assets are being used across marketplaces and social channels. It flags when the same or highly similar imagery appears in listings or adverts that are not controlled by you or your authorised partners.

This includes:

  • Direct reuse of official product photos
  • Slightly edited or cropped versions of your images
  • Lookalike packaging designed to confuse consumers
  • Designs that closely mimic your brand’s visual identity

By linking this to seller identity and marketplace behaviour, Remove.tech helps you prioritise the cases that are likely to cause the most damage to your brand and customers.

Yes. Remove.tech is designed to help brands identify and act on impersonation across major social platforms. This includes fake brand pages, fake “official” accounts, fraudulent customer-support handles, and profiles that mimic your brand or senior team members to mislead consumers.

Remove.tech detects patterns such as:

  • Reuse of your brand name, logo, product imagery, or tone of voice
  • Accounts linking to scam websites or fake stores
  • Coordinated campaigns using similar naming and content

Because Remove.tech incorporates identity checks, it also helps prevent the same bad actor from continuously creating new impersonation profiles once one is taken down.

Remove.tech detects a wide range of harmful behaviours and brand abuse patterns that impact online brands, including:

  • Counterfeit products and replica listings
  • Fake stores and fraudulent websites misusing your brand
  • Fake listings with misleading product descriptions or imagery
  • Stolen product images, packaging visuals, and lookalike designs
  • Impersonation accounts on social platforms
  • Unauthorised sellers and grey-market or parallel import activity
  • Marketplace abuse, seller fraud, and coordinated IP violations

Because Remove.tech uses identity and behaviour signals, it can connect related abuse across different channels, rather than treating each incident in isolation.

Remove.tech is an AI-first brand protection platform that helps brands detect, prevent, and eliminate online abuse across marketplaces, social platforms, and the open web. Instead of only scanning content like listings and posts, Remove.tech focuses on the people behind abuse by verifying real humans and linking activity back to identity signals.

For brands, this means you’re not just reporting individual counterfeit listings or scam sites one by one – you are disrupting the underlying network driving them. Remove.tech reduces repeat offences, cuts down manual enforcement work, and helps you protect revenue, reputation, and consumer trust at scale.

Remove.tech is designed for teams that are overwhelmed by volume. Instead of manually reviewing thousands of alerts, brand protection teams can use Remove.tech to:

  • Prioritise the most harmful cases based on risk, identity, and impact
  • Identify and neutralise repeat offenders early
  • Group related incidents into a single, action-ready case
  • Share structured reports with legal, compliance, and commercial teams

This reduces time spent on low-impact or duplicate alerts and shifts the team’s focus towards strategic enforcement and prevention.

Yes. Remove.tech is built for brands that operate across multiple regions and channels. It supports major marketplaces in the US, EU/UK, Asia, Latin America, and Southeast Asia, including:

  • General marketplaces such as Amazon, Walmart, eBay, Bol, Cdiscount, Otto, Zalando, MercadoLibre, OLX
  • Global and China-based platforms like Alibaba, AliExpress, DHgate, Taobao, Tmall, 1688, JD, Pinduoduo, Weidian
  • Regional platforms such as Shopee, Lazada, Tokopedia, Bukalapak, Tiki, Sendo

This breadth allows brands to see a connected picture of abuse, rather than siloed incidents on one platform at a time.

Yes. Remove.tech is not a law firm and doesn’t replace your legal counsel, but it provides the structured evidence and intelligence needed to support fast and successful takedown requests. That includes:

  • Identity-linked information on the seller or operator
  • Evidence of repeated infringement or abusive behaviour
  • Records of image theft, misleading descriptions, or brand misuse
  • Cross-platform patterns showing coordinated activity

Instead of relying on manual screenshots and guesswork, brand protection and legal teams can use Remove.tech’s data to file DMCA, trademark, or platform-specific reports with greater confidence and a higher success rate.

Traditional brand protection tools are primarily content scanners: they search for keywords, images, and product matches, then flag anything that looks suspicious. They focus on what is being posted.

Remove.tech focuses on who is behind that content. By validating identity and linking behaviour across accounts and platforms, Remove.tech can:

  • Stop the same infringer from coming back under new identities
  • Reduce the number of repeat takedowns for the same actor
  • Give legal teams richer intelligence for enforcement and escalation

In short, traditional tools clean up individual messes. Remove.tech is designed to stop the person making the mess in the first place.

Identity & Fraud Prevention

Most counterfeiters and fraudsters rely on burner accounts. When one listing or profile is Remove.techd, they simply create another with a new email or username. Traditional detection tools struggle to link these accounts together.

By introducing identity-layer protection, Remove.tech:

  • Ties accounts back to a persistent identity signals
  • Recognises when the same person is trying to return in a slightly different form 
  • Prevents “whack-a-mole” enforcement where the same offender appears again and again

This reduces long-term enforcement workload and weakens the business model for counterfeit operations that rely on easy account creation.

Remove.tech uses selling patterns to confirm that there is one real human behind each participating listing or account. 

This approach is particularly valuable for marketplaces, platforms, and brands that want to raise identity standards without creating onboarding barriers.

Remove.tech anchors each account to one or more trusted identity signals (for example, a device, phone number, or other validated identifier). If the same person attempts to create a second or third account to continue abusive behaviour, Remove.tech can:

  • Recognise the identity match
  • Flag or block the new account at creation
  • Alert brand protection or trust & safety teams to a repeat offender

This allows brands and platforms to set policies such as “one verified identity, one seller account”, significantly reducing fraud and enforcement overhead.

Remove.tech follows principles of data minimisation, purpose limitation, and compliance with major privacy frameworks such as GDPR and CCPA. In practice, this means:

  • Only collecting the signals necessary to achieve identity assurance and abuse prevention
  • Avoiding raw biometric storage or full personal profiling
  • Providing clear data-flow documentation for legal and compliance teams
  • Offering deployment models and integrations that respect local regulations

Brands can improve trust and safety without compromising their own privacy posture.

No. Remove.tech is deliberately designed to be privacy-respecting. It does not store raw biometrics, ID document scans, or unnecessary personal data. Instead, it works with minimal, abstracted identity signals that are sufficient for fraud prevention and enforcement, but do not create new data security risks for brands.

This makes Remove.tech suitable for organisations that need strong identity assurance without taking on the regulatory or reputational risk of storing sensitive identity data themselves.

Identity verification makes it significantly harder for bad actors to hide behind throwaway accounts. For brands, this translates into:

  • Fewer counterfeit or scam sellers at the top of funnels
  • Greater accountability from sellers and partners
  • Better ability to trace the source of abuse or IP infringement
  • A safer environment for genuine customers

When platforms enforce strong identity standards, the entire ecosystem benefits – including brands, consumers, and legitimate sellers.

Content-only detection focuses on spotting problematic listings, posts, or websites. It can be powerful, but it treats each incident as separate. Identity-based protection adds a missing layer by asking: “Who is doing this, and what else are they doing?”

The benefits include:

  • Collapsing dozens of incidents into one actor-centric case
  • Preventing the same person from reappearing under new guises
  • Giving legal teams better evidence for escalation
  • Reducing long-term operational cost by solving root causes, not just symptoms

In other words, identity-based protection makes all other brand protection activities more effective.

Yes. Remove.tech is built to prevent exactly this type of behaviour. Bots and burner accounts typically rely on:

  • Low-friction, anonymous registration
  • Disposable emails and phone numbers
  • The absence of real identity checks

Remove.tech makes it much more difficult for automated systems or bad actors to create large numbers of accounts. This, in turn, limits the scale of abuse, spam, and fraud that can occur on a platform or within a brand ecosystem.

Yes. Remove.tech is built to sit alongside and enhance your existing stack rather than replace everything. It can integrate with:

  • Brand protection platforms and monitoring tools
  • Legal case management systems
  • Incident/ticketing platforms used by trust & safety or customer support teams
  • Internal dashboards and BI tools

Data can be shared via API, exports, or custom integrations, so teams can work where they already are while benefiting from identity-layer intelligence.

Marketplace Abuse

Remove.tech detects the main patterns of marketplace abuse that damage brands and consumers, including:

  • Counterfeit and replica product listings
  • Fake or misleading listings using your branding
  • Grey market listings and parallel imports in restricted regions
  • Stolen product images or packaging art
  • Seller fraud, such as bait-and-switch or non-delivery
  • Copycat brand pages and lookalike product ranges

By combining content and identity signals, Remove.tech helps brands understand both the scope of abuse and who is behind it.

Remove.tech uses identity-based matching and behaviour analysis to identify when the same seller, or connected group of sellers, appears on multiple marketplaces under different names.

This lets brands see that:

  • A seller on Amazon, a seller on Shopee, and a seller on MercadoLibre are in fact related
  • The same actor is spinning up new accounts as old ones are shut down
  • Abuse is not random, but part of a coordinated operation

This cross-market visibility is critical for global brands who need to manage risk in a joined-up way.

Yes. Remove.tech monitors major Chinese and global sourcing platforms for product piracy, replicas, and lookalike goods. It can:

  • Detect copied designs, branding, or feature sets
  • Identify manufacturers offering unlicensed production of branded goods
  • Link suppliers to downstream sellers on other marketplaces

This is particularly valuable for manufacturers, electronics, fashion, and luxury brands where the upstream supply of counterfeits often begins.

Yes. Remove.tech looks for signals that products are being sold outside authorised channels, such as:

  • Sellers listing products in regions where they shouldn’t be available
  • Pricing patterns that undercut official channels in specific markets
  • Distribution routes that don’t align with your supply chain

By combining region, seller identity, and listing data, Remove.tech gives brands a clearer view of where grey market activity is occurring and who is driving it.

Remove.tech analyses a combination of:

  • Product titles and descriptions
  • Image and media usage
  • Pricing and offer structure
  • Seller history and behaviour
  • Identity signals behind the account

If a listing strongly resembles an official product page but is operated by an unknown or risky seller, Remove.tech can flag it as a potential cloned or misleading listing for review or enforcement.

Yes. Remove.tech is designed for brands selling in multiple markets. It can monitor activity simultaneously across the US, EU/UK, Latin America, China, Southeast Asia, and more.

This gives brands one coherent view of:

  • Where abuse is most intense
  • Which regions show similar patterns of infringement
  • Whether the same actors are operating across borders

Global brands can then make decisions on resourcing, legal strategies, and partner management based on real-world data rather than assumptions.

Yes. On large marketplaces such as Amazon and Walmart, Remove.tech can help brands:

  • Identify deceptive or high-risk seller accounts
  • Spot patterns of misleading product descriptions and imagery
  • Trace multiple seller accounts back to the same operator
  • Prioritise which sellers pose the greatest threat to reputation and revenue

With that intelligence, brands can take targeted action via marketplace programmes, enforcement channels, or legal escalation.

Remove.tech is built for near real-time detection. While exact timings depend on platform data and integration specifics, the aim is to:

  • Surface high-risk listings as early as possible, ideally soon after they go live
  • Reduce the window in which consumers can be exposed to fake or unsafe products
  • Give brand protection teams a head start before abuse scales

This speed is especially important during launches, promotions, or peak shopping periods when counterfeiters are most active.

Yes. Remove.tech helps brands track where products are appearing outside authorised channels and which sellers are consistently involved. It can:

  • Highlight sellers repeatedly listing your products without being official partners
  • Show whether those sellers are linked to known distributors or entirely unknown sources
  • Provide patterns that suggest diversion or leakage from legitimate supply chains

This allows commercial and legal teams to investigate, engage, or enforce as appropriate.

Yes. Remove.tech supports secondhand and resale platforms such as Vinted, StockX, GOAT, Poshmark, and similar marketplaces where counterfeit and replica items are common.

For these platforms and the brands using them, Remove.tech helps distinguish between legitimate resale and:

  • High-quality replicas being passed off as genuine
  • Sellers repeatedly listing fake goods from the same source
  • Lookalike or “dupe” ecosystems that trade on brand recognition

This protects both brand equity and end consumers.

Social Media Brand Misuse

Yes. Remove.tech is able to detect accounts across major social platforms that present themselves as your brand or an official channel when they are not. These can include:

  • Fake brand pages
  • Impersonated customer support accounts
  • Profiles using your logo, brand name, or trade dress
  • Accounts promoting counterfeit or scam offers under your identity

By surfacing these quickly, Remove.tech enables brand and social teams to act before large numbers of consumers are misled.

Yes. Remove.tech supports the major global social platforms used by brands and scammers alike. It can detect misuse of your:

  • Brand name and variants
  • Logos and product imagery
  • Creative content used in adverts and organic posts

Monitoring these platforms together gives brands a more accurate view of how their identity is being used – or abused – online.

Yes. Remove.tech is able to detect patterns where individuals or groups set up fake “support” channels for your brand on messaging platforms. These accounts often:

  • Ask customers for payment or sensitive data
  • Redirect people to scam websites
  • Pose as official escalation or complaints channels

By spotting these accounts and linking them to broader identity patterns, Remove.tech gives brands tools to warn their customers and take action where possible.

Remove.tech monitors for reuse and re-contextualisation of your creative assets. This can include:

  • Product photos being reused in fraudulent ads
  • Clips from brand campaigns being cut into scam videos
  • Screenshots of your website being used to fake legitimacy

By matching those assets back to your originals and checking the identity of the accounts using them, Remove.tech helps you spot when your creative work is being weaponised against your own customers.

Remove.tech uses a mix of:

  • Brand asset recognition (name, logo, imagery, look and feel)
  • Behavioural and network analysis (who the account interacts with, how often, and in what way)
  • Identity signals, where available, to connect multiple impersonation accounts back to the same actor

Fraudulent ads and profiles often share common traits such as directing traffic to scam websites, using unnatural engagement tactics, or running short-lived campaigns across multiple accounts. Remove.tech is designed to detect these patterns at scale.

Yes. Remove.tech can monitor alternative and community-driven platforms where abuse often starts away from mainstream visibility. These channels are frequently used to:

  • Organise counterfeit distribution
  • Share links to fake stores and phishing pages
  • Run invite-only scam operations

By including them in monitoring, Remove.tech helps brands address the full lifecycle of abuse, not just the public facing front.

Legal, Compliance & IP Lawer

Yes. By giving legal teams a deeper understanding of who is behind piracy or misuse – and how persistent their behaviour is – Remove.tech helps:

  • Demonstrate intent rather than accident
  • Show scale and repetition of infringement
  • Support arguments for stronger remedies or penalties

Identity-aware evidence often carries more weight than isolated content screenshots.

Remove.tech gives IP and legal teams access to seller intelligence, showing how multiple infringing listings, profiles, or websites connect back to a single operator or network. This is crucial when you need to move beyond individual incidents and show a pattern of deliberate infringement.

Key benefits include:

  • Clearer attribution of wrongdoing
  • Stronger evidence for escalation or litigation
  • The ability to prioritise serious, organised abuse over isolated low-risk cases

Yes – this is one of Remove.tech’s core strengths. Traditional systems may show you dozens of infringing listings without indicating they all stem from one entity. Remove.tech’s identity layer helps:

  • Link apparently separate accounts to the same person or group
  • Show repeat behaviour across different brands or product lines
  • Present a more complete picture to platforms, courts, or enforcement partners

This can be the difference between a low-impact takedown and a more meaningful enforcement outcome.

Yes. Remove.tech can help assemble evidence packages that support DMCA notices, trademark complaints, and copyright enforcement across marketplaces, social platforms, and hosting providers.

This evidence can include:

  • Screenshots and URLs of infringing content
  • Timeline and frequency of infringement
  • Links between multiple accounts and the same operator
  • Contextual data showing intent and scale

Legal teams remain in control of the actual filings, while Remove.tech streamlines the investigation and documentation process.

Remove.tech does not replace legal expertise, but it significantly increases its effectiveness. It complements existing methods by:

  • Providing richer, identity-based intelligence
  • Reducing the time spent gathering and structuring evidence
  • Highlighting the worst offenders and most urgent cases
  • Supporting more strategic, targeted enforcement rather than reactive, case-by-case takedowns

Think of it as an intelligence layer that amplifies what your IP team can achieve.

Yes. Remove.tech is designed to detect not just individual infringers but networks operating across borders and platforms. It can show:

  • Shared identity signals or behavioural traits
  • Simultaneous activity in multiple regions
  • Repeat use of similar domain structures, listing formats, or creative assets

This helps legal and compliance teams decide where to focus limited resources for maximum impact.

Yes. Remove.tech has been designed with privacy regulation in mind. It uses minimal, abstracted identity signals and avoids storing unnecessary personal or biometric data. For brands, this means:

  • No need to take on additional data protection risk to gain identity assurances
  • Easier conversations with internal legal and privacy teams
  • A clearer compliance posture when rolling Remove.tech out across multiple regions

Yes. Remove.tech can feed intelligence and evidence into existing case management, document management, or legal workflow tools via exports or API. This ensures:

  • Legal teams don’t have to learn or switch to entirely new systems
  • Evidence from Remove.tech sits alongside other case materials
  • Internal processes remain consistent while becoming more informed

Scam websites and fake shops often appear disconnected on the surface: different domains, branding, or layouts. Remove.tech looks beneath that surface, using:

  • Hosting patterns
  • Linked accounts and social referrals
  • Identity signals from associated sellers or operators

This can reveal when multiple scam domains are under the control of the same actor, providing a better basis for legal or platform action.

Remove.tech can’t replace nuanced legal judgment, but it can provide context to help your team make that call. It can show:

  • How an asset is being used (commercial vs non-commercial, deceptive vs informational)
  • Whether the same actor has a history of abusive behaviour
  • Whether the use is likely to confuse consumers or harm your brand

This context can guide IP lawyers in deciding whether content is acceptable commentary/transformation or should be treated as infringement.

Industry-specific FAQ

For electronics and device manufacturers, counterfeit products pose both brand and safety risks. Remove.tech supports them by:

  • Detecting cloned or lookalike devices and accessories online
  • Identifying suspicious warranty, serial, or bundle patterns
  • Linking sellers offering fake or grey market items across multiple platforms

This allows brands to protect both their reputation and their customers from dangerous or substandard products.

Yes – and in this sector, effective detection is particularly critical. Remove.tech helps medical equipment manufacturers:

  • Monitor online listings for unauthorised or fake versions of their products
  • Identify sellers operating outside regulated channels
  • Provide evidence to regulators or authorities where necessary

For brands operating in highly regulated environments, the ability to link identity to potentially unsafe products is a major advantage.

Luxury brands face some of the most sophisticated counterfeiting operations. Remove.tech helps by:

  • Spotting high-quality replicas and lookalike goods across global marketplaces and resale platforms
  • Linking repeated counterfeit activity to specific sellers or networks
  • Monitoring social and influencer channels where “dupes” of luxury products are promoted

By tying this to identity, luxury brands can focus on dismantling the most damaging networks rather than chasing individual listings.

For food and beverage brands, counterfeits and imitations risk serious consumer harm. Remove.tech supports them by:

  • Monitoring for fake or misleading packaging and labelling
  • Flagging products falsely claiming to be part of your brand portfolio
  • Identifying sellers or websites repeatedly engaging in this behaviour

This enables brands to work with platforms, regulators, and legal teams to Remove.tech dangerous or misleading products quickly.

Consumer goods manufacturers often operate across many markets and channels. Remove.tech helps them:

  • Build a global view of where counterfeit and grey market issues are most concentrated
  • Understand which sellers or networks are driving the most harm
  • Coordinate enforcement and partner management based on data, not assumptions

By linking abuse to actual identity, Remove.tech makes global brand protection more targeted and efficient.

Yes. Tech and online service brands are common targets for phishing campaigns. Remove.tech helps by:

  • Detecting domains and landing pages that closely resemble your login, support, or account pages
  • Tracking how traffic is being driven to those pages via social, email, or ads
  • Identifying when the same operator is running multiple phishing properties

This supports security, legal, and trust & safety teams as they respond.

Yes. Remove.tech detects websites, marketplace stores, and social profiles that present themselves as your brand or an official retailer when they are not. It can:

  • Identify scam domains mimicking your URL or branding
  • Spot marketplace storefronts falsely claiming to be “official”
  • Link these to identity signals where possible

That gives retailers the intelligence needed to warn customers, adjust messaging, and pursue takedowns or legal action.

Yes. Industrial and machine manufacturers are increasingly seeing their equipment, components, or manuals copied and sold online. Remove.tech helps by:

  • Monitoring for unauthorised listings of complex equipment
  • Detecting reuse of technical imagery, diagrams, or branding
  • Identifying distributors or resellers operating outside agreed channels

This helps protect not only intellectual property but also safety, product performance, and aftersales business.

Beauty and personal care products are heavily counterfeited and can pose significant health risks when fake. Remove.tech helps by:

  • Identifying counterfeit skincare, cosmetics, and personal care items across marketplaces and social adverts
  • Detecting unauthorised use of brand visuals, packaging, and claims
  • Linking repeat counterfeit activity back to specific identities and networks

Brands can then prioritise enforcement where consumer safety is most at risk.

Fashion and textile brands often deal with fast-moving design copying and lookalikes. Remove.tech helps by:

  • Detecting designs, prints, and silhouettes that closely mirror protected work
  • Tracking where these items are being listed and resold globally
  • Identifying accounts or suppliers that repeatedly copy designs across seasons

Combined with internal design archives and legal strategy, this allows brands to act faster against serial infringers.

Operational & Technical

Yes. Remove.tech can generate alerts as soon as high-risk activity is detected, with configurable thresholds so that:

  • Critical cases are surfaced immediately
  • Lower-risk or lower-impact cases are batched for review
  • Teams are not overwhelmed by noise, but still see what matters most

Alerts can be delivered via email, dashboards, or integrations such as Slack or internal tools.

Remove.tech supports multilingual and region-specific monitoring by:

  • Tracking platforms in local languages and character sets
  • Recognising brand terms, product names, and visual assets across markets
  • Adjusting detection logic to reflect local marketplace behaviours and nuances

This ensures that abuse in non-English or emerging markets is not overlooked.

Yes. Remove.tech is built to handle high volumes of products, listings, and signals across multiple regions. It is suitable for:

  • Large catalogues with frequent new launches
  • Seasonal or campaign-driven spikes in activity
  • Multi-brand groups operating under a single structure

Scalability is a core part of the design, not an afterthought.

Remove.tech is designed to slot into your current tech stack. It can:

  • Push data into existing brand protection tools as an enrichment layer
  • Send alerts or cases into fraud platforms or trust & safety systems
  • Integrate with internal tools through REST APIs, webhooks, or scheduled exports

This means your teams don’t have to switch systems – they simply get better intelligence inside the workflows they already use.

The setup process is deliberately lightweight. Typically it involves:

  • An initial discovery session to understand your channels, priorities, and tech stack
  • Configuration of marketplace and social monitoring according to your brand profile
  • API or data-pipeline integration with your existing tools, where required
  • Testing and tuning to align risk thresholds and alerting with your team’s capacity

Engineering involvement is kept as light as possible, particularly for cloud-based deployments.

Yes. Remove.tech’s reporting and analytics can help brands quantify:

  • The volume of abusive or infringing listings and accounts
  • The regions and platforms most affected
  • Trends over time, including the impact of enforcement actions

This data is useful for internal reporting, budget justification, and understanding the ROI of enforcement.

Remove.tech looks at a combination of factors, including:

  • Whether the seller is part of your authorised network (where data is provided)
  • Their historical behaviour across platforms
  • We build  internal allowlists
  • Pricing, region, and stock patterns
  • Links to previously flagged or abusive accounts

This allows brands to separate honest resellers or partners from actors who are systematically undermining brand strategy.

Remove.tech offers dashboards that typically show:

  • Overall abuse volume by platform, region, and type (counterfeit, impersonation, etc.)
  • Identity-linked clusters of activity and repeat offenders
  • Status of actions taken (under review, escalated, Remove.techd, etc.)
  • Trends over time so you can see whether risk is increasing or being brought under control

Reports can be customised or exported for different stakeholders – brand, legal, compliance, or executive teams.

Remove.tech’s accuracy comes from combining content signals with identity and behaviour. This reduces the number of false positives typically seen in pure keyword/image systems, because:

  • It can distinguish between legitimate authorised use and suspicious use
  • It can prioritise cases where identity and behaviour strongly suggest abuse
  • It learns from feedback over time

No system is perfect, but identity-first detection significantly improves signal quality.

Value Proposition

Remove.tech reduces cost by:

  • Cutting down on duplicate work against the same offender
  • Prioritising high-impact cases so teams focus where it matters
  • Automating detection and evidence collection
  • Supporting smarter, more strategic enforcement
  • Brand can also use Remove.techs Revenue Recovery Program to take back their stolen revenue

This means fewer hours spent on manual review and more time spent on actions that actually change the risk landscape.

By embedding identity verification at the front door – during onboarding or account creation – Remove.tech makes it much harder for bad actors to enter your ecosystem in the first place. Instead of discovering abuse only after it has gone live and done damage, brands can:

  • Set identity requirements that deter fraudulent actors
  • Detect high-risk users earlier in their lifecycle
  • Stop repeat offenders from returning under new identities

Prevention is always cheaper and more effective than pure reaction.

Legacy tools were built for a web where content was the main signal: text, images, listings. Remove.tech is built for a world where identity, behaviour, and networks matter just as much. Key differences include:

  • A focus on people, not just posts
  • Native support for identity-linked detection
  • A stronger emphasis on prevention, not only takedowns
  • Alignment with modern privacy and platform realities

This makes Remove.tech a next-generation complement, not just another scanner.

Online abuse is increasingly sophisticated and cross-platform. Relying solely on content detection is no longer enough when bad actors can rapidly spin new accounts, domains, and listings. Identity-first brand protection recognises that:

  • Most serious abuse is driven by repeat offenders, not one-off mistakes
  • Anonymous account creation is the root enabler of large-scale fraud and counterfeiting
  • Stronger identity standards are becoming a competitive advantage in trust

Brands that move early on identity-first protection will be better placed to protect both revenue and reputation.

By detecting and helping Remove.tech fake stores, scam domains, and misleading listings earlier, Remove.tech reduces the number of touchpoints where consumers are exposed to confusing or fraudulent brand lookalikes.

This leads to:

  • Fewer complaints and support tickets related to “bad purchases”
  • Less reputational damage from bad experiences incorrectly attributed to your brand
  • Clearer, more consistent brand presence across channels

Ultimately, it protects trust – which is often harder to repair than to maintain.

Exact ROI varies by brand, category, and scale, but typical gains include:

  • Reduced revenue loss from counterfeit and grey-market competition
  • Lower operational costs in legal, brand protection, and support teams
  • Improved customer satisfaction and loyalty
  • Stronger negotiating position with platforms and partners

Identity-first enforcement often pays back quickly in both cost savings and risk reduction.

Remove.tech delivers trust and safety benefits to the entire ecosystem:

  • Brands feel safer investing in channels where abuse is controlled
  • Consumers have a lower risk of being scammed or buying dangerous products
  • Legitimate sellers are less crowded out by counterfeiters and fraudsters

By raising the identity bar and making abuse harder to execute, Remove.tech helps create healthier, more sustainable digital marketplaces.

Because without identity, enforcement remains reactive and easily bypassed. As long as bad actors can repeatedly resurface in new guises, brands will be stuck in an expensive game of whack-a-mole.

Identity-layer enforcement closes that loop by:

  • Making it harder to hide behind disposable accounts
  • Providing continuity across incidents and platforms
  • Supporting stronger, more permanent forms of action

In short, it turns brand protection from a series of isolated clean-ups into a strategic, long-term defence.
