How it works

From EU database to your inbox

The EU Safety Gate RAPEX database publishes daily. We filter, categorise, and translate the noise into actionable alerts.

1

Daily EU database scan

We pull every new Safety Gate notification daily from the official EU RAPEX feed — typically 3–7 new entries per day.

2

Category filtering

We match each alert against the product categories you've subscribed to. No noise — only alerts relevant to what you import.

3

Severity scoring

Each alert is scored: High (immediate action needed), Medium (monitor), or Low (awareness only). High alerts go out immediately — the rest wait for your digest.

4

Your inbox

You receive a clean, readable digest — product name, country of origin, hazard type, GPSR article violated, and what action EU authorities have taken.
