The problem it solves

Keeping an eye on competitor pricing on Amazon means checking listings by hand every day, and it is easy to miss a price drop until you have already lost sales. You need current numbers to defend your position, not a stale spreadsheet.

Who it fits

Amazon sellers who need daily, accurate pricing data on their own and competitors' listings.

How it works

  1. Every morning, the system reads your list of product and competitor URLs from a spreadsheet
  2. Each listing is checked for its current price
  3. The fresh prices are cleaned and formatted
  4. Your spreadsheet is updated row by row with the latest numbers
What you get

Price moves you see the same morning

You get your own and competitor Amazon prices updated in a spreadsheet automatically every morning.

What you get

An always-current spreadsheet of your prices and your competitors' prices.

What you need

A Google account and a web scraping service subscription.

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.
