Frequently asked questions

What does an Amazon product research tool do?

It analyzes marketplace data — Best Sellers Rank, review counts, pricing, seller count — to score how good an opportunity a product niche is, so sellers don't have to manually check dozens of listings by hand.

Do I need a paid tool for Amazon product research?

Not strictly — you can manually check BSR, reviews, and pricing on Amazon directly. Paid tools save time by scoring and comparing dozens of products at once and tracking changes over time automatically.

What's the difference between product research and keyword research tools?

Product research tools evaluate whether a specific product is worth selling (demand, competition, margin). Keyword research tools find the search terms buyers use to find that product. Most full research platforms, including AppStoma, include both.
