ProfitShield vs TrueProfit
TrueProfit tells you the loss.
ProfitShield prevents it.
TrueProfit is a superb real-time net-profit analytics platform — we won't pretend otherwise. But even a live dashboard can only report a money-losing order; it still ships. ProfitShield runs the same per-order math and flags or blocks the loss at checkout. Same Shopify cost data — nothing to re-import.

Reports the loss — in real time
TrueProfit shows your true net profit live and on autopilot, and it does it well. But it's an analytics layer: it tells you a sale lost money after the order is placed. It can't stop that order.
ProfitShield · analytics + enforcement
Prevents the loss — at checkout
ProfitShield runs the same true-profit math inside Shopify checkout via a validation Function, and flags or blocks the money-loser before it's placed. You set the profit floor and whether to warn or block.
