Free Etsy listing risk checker: wording that looks like dropshipping

Paste a listing title and description to spot phrases that read as mass-produced, wholesale or trademarked — and what to add so reviewers see a handmade item.

What it checks

• Factory and dropshipping language — “wholesale”, “factory direct”, “ships from our warehouse”, “OEM”.
• Trademarked brands and characters that invite IP takedowns.
• Imitation wording — “inspired by”, “dupe”, “replica”.
• Generic marketplace phrasing common on factory listings.
• Missing handmade signals — whether you say you make it, how, and from what.

It's a quick wording check, not a verdict. Photos matter as much as text: if your photos already appear on mass-market sites, see what to do after a Creativity Standards removal.

Questions

Does this check my photos?

No, only text. MakerSentry's Pre-flight Check also searches the web for each photo before you publish.
