Does This Sound Familiar?
Resellers and marketplace sellers list your products with your own photography, and you only find out by chance
Reverse image searching one photo at a time does not scale across a catalog
A lookalike store built on your images can run for months before anyone on your team sees it
Image Lookalike Detection solves this. Here is how.
How Image Lookalike Detection Works
Three simple steps to start getting competitive intelligence
Pick the Product Images
On the URL Lookalike page in the app, add product pages from your monitored domain or paste an image URL directly. The product's main image becomes the reference image.
Run a Visual Search
Trigger a scan whenever you want. RivalSweeper sends the image to Google Lens visual search and keeps the raw result. Items marked as recurring are rechecked automatically every week, and a result is reused for 7 days unless you force a fresh scan.
Review the Matches
Each match shows the page where the image appears, the site, the page title, a thumbnail and the date it was found. Between scans you see which matches are new and which have disappeared.

Every capability designed to give your team a competitive edge
Whole-Web Coverage
The search is not limited to the domains you monitor. Google Lens covers marketplaces, resellers, social commerce pages and standalone stores.
Visually Similar, Not Just Identical
Cropped, resized and re-encoded copies of your photo still match, and visually similar products from other brands show up too.
Marketplace Listings Included
In testing, listings on eBay, Amazon and Poshmark appeared in the same list as the brand's own regional stores, authorized retailers and two lookalike stores.
A Dated Trail
Every match carries the page URL and the date it was found, and earlier results are archived, so you can show when a listing first appeared.
Change Tracking
Recurring scans compare against the previous result: new matches and removed matches are listed separately.
Your Catalog, Your Choice
You decide which products to watch. Start with your hero products and expand as you go.

It is a reverse image search built into your competitive intelligence workspace. You choose the product images, RivalSweeper runs a Google Lens visual search for each one and keeps a dated list of every page where the same or a visually similar image appears: marketplace listings, resellers, lookalike stores, competitor pages. Recurring items are rechecked weekly, and new or removed matches are flagged. It does not grade matches with a confidence score, it does not take evidence screenshots, and it does not decide whether a listing is counterfeit - it tells you where to look. In a test on 2026-10-17, a single footwear product photo surfaced 58 matches, among them listings on eBay, Amazon and Poshmark and two lookalike stores built on the brand's own photography.
