Marker: AI-SEARCH-SDS-SOURCE-CHECKLIST-READY
Use this when: a retailer, maker, repair shop, cleaner, salon, workshop, contractor, property team, or ecommerce business publishes pages that mention chemicals, materials, ingredients, cleaners, coatings, adhesives, solvents, batteries, fuels, or maintenance products.
STOP PUBLISHING: do not let AI invent hazard classes, PPE, ventilation, storage temperature, incompatibilities, dilution ratios, disposal steps, first-aid instructions, emergency procedures, compliance status, or legal/regulatory claims. A responsible human must verify every safety-adjacent statement against the official SDS, label, vendor document, or qualified advisor first.
SDS source card
| Field | What to record | Safe example |
|---|---|---|
| Product / material | Name, SKU, batch/version, supplier, intended use, and affected page or support answer. | Citrus degreaser, shop-use and customer FAQ pages |
| Official source | SDS version/date, label, vendor page, training note, or owner-approved policy. | Supplier SDS dated 2026-05-18, section 7 handling/storage |
| Approved public wording | Exact customer-safe wording the business is willing to publish. | Use in a well-ventilated area and follow the product label. Contact us for the current SDS before commercial use. |
| Do-not-say list | Unsupported hazards, disposal, PPE, compatibility, first-aid, or regulatory claims AI must not infer. | Do not say food-safe, non-toxic, safe for all surfaces, drain-safe, or no PPE required unless the source proves it. |
| Reviewer / escalation path | Who approves missing or risky safety statements before publication. | Operations owner reviews with supplier or qualified safety contact before public wording changes. |

Short product/support note: For [product/material], follow the current label and official Safety Data Sheet. Our approved public guidance is: [approved wording]. If your use case involves heat, food contact, medical/skin exposure, confined spaces, disposal, mixing, children/pets, or workplace safety, contact [owner/support path] before relying on a general answer.Risky-answer handoff: I do not want to guess about [PPE / ventilation / compatibility / disposal / first aid / legal requirement]. I am routing this to [review owner] and will answer only from the approved SDS/source card.Page update checklist:
- Paste the latest SDS/source card.
- Remove any unsupported hazard, safe-use, disposal, or compatibility claim.
- Add a review date and source owner.
- Mark any missing proof as NEEDS HUMAN REVIEW, not as a published answer.AI-search audit prompt
You are auditing a small-business page for AI search and answer-engine safety. Compare the draft text only against the verified SDS/source card below. Flag any invented or unsupported chemical, material, PPE, storage, disposal, dilution, first-aid, compatibility, hazard, compliance, or legal/regulatory claim. Return: 1) source-supported statements, 2) statements to remove, 3) missing source fields, 4) customer/safety risk notes, and 5) a safer rewritten section with NEEDS HUMAN REVIEW where proof is missing.
