The problem it solves

Keeping tabs on what competitors charge and how they position their products on Amazon means checking listings over and over throughout the week. Doing this by hand takes hours you would rather spend on your own products.

Who it fits

E-commerce sellers and brand managers who sell on Amazon and want to track competitor pricing without manual research.

How it works

  1. Runs automatically every morning on a set schedule
  2. Scans Amazon listings for your target product category
  3. Reads pricing, product details, and positioning from each listing
  4. Identifies pricing gaps and keyword opportunities competitors are missing
  5. Writes a market report with the findings to a document
What you get

Pricing shifts spotted before you check manually

You get a daily market report highlighting competitor pricing changes and keyword gaps worth pursuing.

What you get

A daily market report document summarizing competitor pricing, positioning, and keyword opportunities.

What you need

A web scraping service subscription and a Google Workspace account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
