NorthWestSouth Data

I build small, reliable data tools on official sources — EU open data, public registers and government APIs — for online sellers and AI agents.

Why official sources?

Most scrapers break the moment a website changes its layout. My tools read documented APIs and official open-data feeds instead. That means they keep working, and the data stays legally clean and properly attributed.

What I'm building

• EU product recall checks — the complete EU Safety Gate (RAPEX) corpus: 46,506 alerts since 2005, synced daily including official corrections, and queryable by EAN/GTIN barcode. US recall databases don't carry barcodes; the EU one does.
• More EU open-data tools for e-commerce are in the works.

Data & licensing

Everything I publish runs on sources that explicitly permit commercial re-use. Attribution and source links ship with every result, so you can trace any record back to the original authority.

Honest coverage notes

Each tool's description states exactly what it does and does not cover, with measured hit rates where relevant. I'd rather you skip a tool than be disappointed by it.

Support

Missing a field, hit a bug, or need a different output shape? Open an issue on the actor — I read them daily and usually reply the same day.
