Amazon Best Sellers Scraper

Track what's selling on Amazon — scrape the Best Sellers and New Releases charts for any category, in any of 17 marketplaces, with each product's rank and — unlike basic chart scrapers — full product detail (price, rating with star-by-star histogram, images, brand) for every ranked item, including the ranks below the visible fold that other scrapers leave blank. Data comes from Amazon's own chart pages and product API, so it's clean, structured, and login-free.

Who it's for

• Sellers & brands watching their category's top ranks and new entrants.
• Product researchers & sourcing teams spotting trending, high-demand products.
• Investors & analysts tracking category demand and pricing.
• Retail media & agencies benchmarking category leaders.

Scheduling & webhooks

Schedule a daily run to build a time series of category ranks and prices, and use a webhook to push each dataset into your warehouse, Google Sheets, or Slack when the run finishes — ideal for trend dashboards and rank-tracking.

Use it from AI assistants (MCP)

Output is standard JSON, so it drops straight into AI/agent pipelines and the Apify MCP server — ask an agent "what's trending in Home & Kitchen on Amazon UK today" and get a ranked, priced list back.

FAQ

Which charts are supported? Best Sellers and New Releases, which Amazon serves as full HTML rankings. (Movers & Shakers / Most Wished For are rendered only after in-page scripts run and are not included.)

How many products per chart? Up to the top 100 (two pages of 50). Set maxItems to fetch fewer.

What is "enrich"? With enrichment on (default), every ranked ASIN — including ones below the visible fold — is filled with price, rating histogram, images and brand from Amazon's product API. Turn it off for a faster rank-only run.

Do I need an Amazon account or API key? No.

How fresh is the data? Live at request time; sales-rank movement reflects Amazon's own 24-hour comparison.

Is scraping this legal? The actor collects publicly available ranking data. You are responsible for using it in line with Amazon's terms and applicable law.
