Catalog review queue
Open Products → Review whenever Máximo has something for you to weigh in on: individual products it isn’t sure about, batches of change large enough to check with you first, and product groupings it thinks belong together. It opens as a panel over your product list, with three tabs.
Needs review
Section titled “Needs review”Products with at least one open classification question are grouped into a card each, with a confidence badge, Very sure, Fairly sure, or Not sure: on every question. Each question shows Máximo’s read, why it matters for your feeds, and (behind What we saw) the evidence behind it. For each one you can:
- Confirm: agree with Máximo’s read.
- Correct: choose the right value from a dropdown instead.
A summary strip above the list groups open questions by category, each with a Confirm all shortcut for that category. The first time your catalog is reviewed, Máximo starts with the products it’s least sure about; once you have sales data, your top earners move to the front of the line instead.
Confirming or correcting a question is a decision Máximo won’t ask about again for that product, it never overrides a decision you’ve made.
Pending approvals
Section titled “Pending approvals”Bigger changes wait here for a single yes-or-no before they touch your live feeds, batched so you review one thing at a time instead of product by product. What you see depends on the kind of change:
| What triggered it | Approve | Reject |
|---|---|---|
| A confident finding that would exclude an unusually large number of products at once (for example, a batch of test products or free gifts) | Approve: applies the exclusion | Keep them in my feeds |
Products you hid from search engines in Shopify (seo.hidden = 1) that are still live on a destination | Remove from feeds | Keep publishing them |
| A proposed product family grouping, held because it’s an unusually large change | Group them | Keep them separate |
Approving a removal takes those products out of the destinations they’re currently live on, this is a real deletion at the destination, not just pausing them. Rejecting keeps a batch’s products exactly as they are and tells Máximo not to raise that exact set of changes again on its own.
The first batch you approve also tells Máximo it can start applying its own confident findings automatically going forward, per your choices in Settings. Everything before that first approval is held for review regardless of those settings.
Variant groups
Section titled “Variant groups”Proposed and applied product families live on their own tab, with accept, reject, and ungroup actions. See Product families for how grouping works and what it changes.
