What's going wrong
Merchants using the platform's channel apps report that their catalog sync stalls during setup, drops without warning, or keeps throwing errors with no named cause. Some lose their catalog after a minor product information edit and then cannot put it back, while others find catalog ads will not connect at all. Listings vanish and ads halt until owners rebuild the link by hand, sometimes for days. Reports come from small shops, boutiques, and agencies running several channel apps, and many say Meta support never responds. The opportunity is a catalog sync monitor that checks each link step in order, names the exact failure, retries refreshes, compares the catalog with what Meta shows, and offers a one-click republish when a removal occurs.
