Radar is today's board — not a crystal ball
Radar materialises once per UTC day from tracked Shopify stores. Positions, movement, and HOT are the published inputs — not a secret 14-point list.

What goes into the board
Radar refreshes once a day at midnight UTC with the top products from tracked Shopify stores. Tile prices update every 60 minutes. Rank numbers and ▲/▼ compare with yesterday — so you see what's climbing before the market piles in. Methodology: rankings combine independent observations such as a durable best-seller position, movement over time, presence across multiple independent stores, sustained advertising, or corroborating store-quality indicators. Missing evidence is unknown, not zero.
Cadence you can state
Radar ranks today's winning products with position moves, HOT multi-store badges, and niche filters — rankings refresh daily at midnight UTC; tile data every 60 minutes. Product details and prices on tiles can refresh hourly. Store and product pages may update after a live catalogue scan. The timestamp on the page is part of the reading.
What Radar is not
It is not a prediction that yesterday's #1 stays #1. It is not exact revenue. It is not an anonymous audit of a URL you paste. Free accounts see positions 1–25. Subscribers see every position. Browsing Radar does not spend credits.

Common questions
- When does Radar refresh?
- Rankings refresh once a day at midnight UTC. Tile prices and details can update every 60 minutes.
- Why did a product move overnight?
- The daily materialise recomputes positions from the latest best-seller observations. ▲/▼ is versus yesterday's board.
- Is there a hidden score I should reverse-engineer?
- No. Use the position, movement, HOT badge, and bands on the tile. Do not invent a second public score.
