  • LLM Discovery Engine

    An AI engine that surfaces fresh, non-obvious ideas, even in categories that feel saturated.

  • Semantic Focus Areas

    Filters by the meaning of your interests using semantic search, not rigid exact-match keywords.

  • Intelligent Market Thresholds

    Turns niche discovery inputs into intelligent validation criteria, using both standard and advanced signals from user-defined filters.

Viability

The clearest read on a market you'll get, the entire niche judged against your criteria, not a single listing.

  • Market Image Table

    Centralizes every page-1 competitor into one view, and keeps it as a living baseline for the niche, not a one-time scan.

  • Duplicate-Aware Averages

    Toggle duplicates on/off, averages and metrics recalculate without repeats for a true market baseline.

  • Organic vs Sponsored Views

    Separate paid placements from true organic ranking to read demand honestly.

  • +Add ASIN

    Pull in listings page 1 misses, or from related keywords in the same segment, for a more accurate baseline.

  • Remove & Restore Listings

    Drop irrelevant results to clean your niche, and put any listing back the moment you need it.

Profitability

The most advanced Amazon P&L there is, every fee mapped, nothing hidden.

  • Advanced P&L Calculator

    Accounts for every cost that hits your margin, down to the fees most calculators skip.

  • Exact HTS & Tariff Finder

    Pinpoints the right HTS code and calculates your real duty on current rates, so you don't have to decode it yourself.

  • Competitor-Based Pricing Scenarios

    Models profitability across real competitor price points, not a single guessed price.

  • Verified Supplier Matching

    Finds verified Alibaba suppliers for any product, giving you a reliable COGS baseline that flows straight into the calculator.

  • Intelligent Storage Fee Engine

    Set a start month and duration; it builds a month-by-month timeline across Amazon's off-peak/peak shifts and utilization bands.

Deep Dive

Finally, a real read on your competition: a full teardown of real products, not backend data you're left to interpret.

  • Real-Product Competitor Analysis

    Reads actual listings, tech specs, what's in the box, differentiators and downsides for every competitor.

  • Vision-Powered Listing Reads

    Analyzes listing photos, not just text, to capture details the copy never mentions.

  • Review Intelligence

    Mines reviews for genuine pain points and the parts customers love.

  • Patent & Compliance Check

    Lists the regulatory standards the product must meet, and reads which kinds of design tend to be protected in the category. No patent register is searched.

  • Seasonality Insight

    Shows when demand actually peaks across the year.

  • Grounded SWOT Analysis

    A SWOT built from every prior stage, not generic guesswork.

Why this approach works

Traditional tools stop at data. We start where the real work begins, turning that data into a clear call on your next product, faster than ever.

End to end

One flow from discovery to decision. Every stage feeds the next, all your R&D lives in one place, and nothing gets lost.

Whole-Market

Validates the entire niche against your criteria, not a single listing, so you judge the market you'd actually compete in.

True economics

Real fees, tariffs, and supplier-sourced costs are baked in, making the profit you see the profit you keep.

Clear verdicts

Every stage ends in a score and a verdict with reasoning, so you leave knowing what to do, not with a spreadsheet to interpret.

Frequently asked questions

The Basics

What does SKUASCOUT actually do?

SKUASCOUT takes you from finding an Amazon niche all the way to a launch decision. It runs in four stages, Niche Discovery, Viability, Profitability, and Deep Dive, and each one scores the opportunity, so you end up with a clear, data-backed read on whether a product is worth pursuing.

Do I need to already have a product idea, or does it find them for me?

Either way works. You can start right in the app by exploring niches based on your criteria, or upload your own CSV to pull a niche you already have in mind into the pipeline.

Who is this app suited for?

The app is designed for Amazon sellers who want a faster, more structured way to research and validate new product opportunities. It's especially helpful for sellers with at least some experience who feel overwhelmed by manual research, lack a clear R&D workflow, or struggle to organize product data into confident decisions.

Is this for Amazon only, or other platforms too?

The app is currently built specifically for Amazon US product research, so every metric and calculation is tuned to how Amazon US works, including fees, rankings, competition, and margins. Amazon UK support is planned for the next upgrade.

How It Works

How does the niche generation work?

Our niche-generation engine runs on an advanced, LLM-based methodology, trained to understand exactly what you're looking for and surface niches that genuinely match your interests, rather than broad, generic categories.

Can SKUASCOUT find niches in every Amazon category?

Niche discovery currently supports these Amazon categories: Appliances · Arts, Crafts & Sewing · Automotive · Baby · Beauty & Personal Care · Cell Phones & Accessories · Computers & Accessories · Electronics · Health & Household · Home & Kitchen · Industrial & Scientific · Kitchen & Dining · Musical Instruments · Office Products · Patio, Lawn & Garden · Pet Supplies · Sports & Outdoors · Tools & Home Improvement For anything outside this list, the +Add function lets you bring in an external niche and run it through the entire flow.

Where does your data come from, and how current is it?

The app comes with multiple backend integrations that pull together live Amazon market data and product-level insights, so you're working with a current snapshot of the market rather than stale numbers. Fee and tariff rates are kept up to date, and the date they were last refreshed is always shown.

What's the difference between the Viability, Profitability, and Deep Dive scores?

Each answers a different question. Viability asks "does this market fit my criteria?" Profitability asks "can I actually make money here after all the costs?" Deep Dive asks "can my product compete against the real players in this niche?" Together they build toward a single Master Score for the whole niche.

How does it find suppliers and COGS?

The app matches your product to suppliers to estimate realistic costs, so your COGS isn't a wild guess, it's grounded in what the product would actually cost to source. You can adjust the figures anytime if you have your own quotes.

Tools You Already Use

How is this different from other Amazon research tools?

While other Amazon tools are platforms built around keyword research, listing optimization, PPC, inventory or operations, they lightly touch the R&D side of the business. This app serves a different purpose: it's a focused R&D tool that goes deep on the go/no-go decision for a niche. It takes a single opportunity through validation, true profitability, and a competitive deep dive, then turns it into a build-ready product blueprint.

Trust, Accuracy & Risk

Will this guarantee I find a winning product?

No tool can honestly promise that, and we won't. What the app does is remove the guesswork: it shows you where the demand, the margins, and the competition actually stand, so your decisions are based on data instead of hope. It stacks the odds in your favor; it doesn't replace judgment.

Does it check patents and compliance?

Compliance, yes. Patents, not in the way that question usually means, and we would rather say so before you pay than after. The Deep Dive lists the regulatory standards your product has to meet, and gives a qualitative read on what kinds of mechanism or design tend to be protected in the category. It does not search a patent register, it never returns a clearance opinion, and it will not tell you a specific patent exists. Where a competitor prints a patent number in their own listing, we show it as exactly that: a claim that seller is making, unverified. For freedom to operate, you need a patent attorney, and no software should pretend otherwise.

Is my research and data private?

Yes. Your research, uploads, and niche opportunities are stored securely and kept private within your account. Everything you build, save, and analyze remains part of your own workspace.

Pricing & Practical

What happens to my credits if I cancel a process?

Credits are charged when a process starts, since it immediately triggers the app's background integrations. If the process fails, times out, or you cancel it, the charge is automatically refunded in full.

Do you offer team or enterprise access?

Yes. For agencies, teams, and training programs, we offer enterprise access so a whole group can use the app under one account, handy if you're running a course or managing a team of researchers. Get in touch and we'll set it up for you.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Plans are month-to-month, so you can cancel whenever you like.

Do you offer support or onboarding?

Yes. There's in-app guidance throughout, and you can reach out for help whenever you get stuck.
