Green dot: explicit
A green dot means the value is explicit, meaning it’s stated clearly in the source material.
Typical examples:
A net weight that’s written on the pack or on the product page
A life stage that’s listed as “Adult” in the product description
A packaging type that’s explicitly called out (e.g. “Bag”)
Orange dot: inferred by AI
An orange dot means the value has been inferred by the AI, meaning the value is a best guess based on available evidence, but not directly stated.
In your example:
Packaging Type is set to “Bag” and marked with an orange dot because the AI inferred it (it’s typical for dry dog food, and the page imagery or context suggests a bag), rather than it being explicitly stated.
How to use this in review
Prioritise reviewing orange dot values before publishing, especially when the attribute affects compliance, logistics, or filtering.
Green dot values can usually be trusted, because they’re explicitly supported by the source.
