Which Amazon analytics tools are worth a look?

These ten Amazon analytics tools cover the jobs sellers and brands pay for: product and keyword research, profit per product, retail media and the raw data behind it. Every price comes from the tool's own site. Where a site shows monthly and yearly billing, we list the monthly price. [h10] [js] [sb] [ss]

Commerce Spine is our own product, built by SellerPlex. It sits first because it answers one job well: giving your own AI agent your Amazon data. Where another tool is the better pick, we say so in its section. [cs-site]

Commerce Spine: Amazon data for your own AI agent

Commerce Spine is a managed Amazon data warehouse with a read-only API. It brings Ads and DSP, Marketing Stream, Seller Central, Vendor Central and Brand Analytics data into one place. Performance rollups refresh daily and Brand Analytics weekly. Your agent then builds on it: dashboards, Slack alerts and weekly profit reports. Claude and Claude Code connect through a plugin, while Codex and Cursor call the API. [cs-site]

The free plan covers one connected account with 30 days of history, 20 queries an hour and 40 a day. The $49 plan covers up to 3 accounts with 1,000 queries a day and a 90-day query window. The $149 plan covers up to 12 accounts. Both paid plans include 5 hours with a senior AI developer. [cs-site]

SellerPlex runs its own PPC, supply chain and account health teams on the same data layer. Tokens are read-only, so nothing can change your bids, listings or prices. For the full picture of what the Amazon data API returns, see our guide. If you want finished dashboards without an agent, Nova Analytics or Sellerboard gets you there faster. [cs-site]
