Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Amazon Seller Intelligence – BSR Watchlist, Buy Box & Price Monitor **Daily Amazon product monitoring at $0.004 per ASIN. No subscription.** Monitor your entire Amazon ASIN watchlist daily. Know instantly when your Buy Box changes, when a competitor drops their price, or when your BSR tanks overnight — without paying $99–$279/month for Helium 10 or Jungle Scout. ### What it tracks per ASIN - Best Sellers Rank (current + change since last run) - Buy Box owner (flags when it changes hands) - Price (current + % change since last run) - Review count and velocity (new reviews since last run) - Stock status - Competing seller count ### Who it's for - FBA sellers monitoring their own catalogue - Retail arbitrage operators watching competitor prices - Amazon agencies running daily reporting for clients - Tools builders adding Amazon intelligence to their product ### Pricing | Event | Price | |---|---| | Run started | $0.05 | | ASIN checked | $0.004 | | Buy Box change detected | +$0.002 | | ASIN failed | $0.001 | **100 ASINs daily = $0.45/day = ~$13.50/month** **Helium 10 Starter: $99/month** ### Input | Field | Default | Description | |---|---|---| | asins | required | Array of ASINs to monitor (max 500) | | marketplace | amazon.co.uk | Which Amazon marketplace | | trackBsrHistory | true | Store snapshots to track changes over time | | alertOnBuyBoxChange | true | Flag Buy Box ownership changes | | alertOnPriceDropPercent | 10 | Flag drops over this % (0 = disabled) | | includeOfferCount | true | Include competing seller count | | includeReviewVelocity | true | Track new reviews since last run | ### Output fields - `asin`, `marketplace`, `productTitle`, `productUrl`, `imageUrl` - `currentPrice`, `currency`, `previousPrice`, `priceChange`, `priceChangePercent`, `priceFlagged` - `buyBoxWinner`, `buyBoxWinnerPrevious`, `buyBoxChanged`, `isBuyBoxAmazon`, `offerCount` - `bsr`, `bsrCategory`, `bsrPrevious`, `bsrChange`, `bsrChangePercent` - `reviewCount`, `reviewRating`, `reviewCountPrevious`, `reviewVelocity` - `inStock`, `stockStatus`, `checkedAt`, `lastRunAt`, `status` ### Setup note No API keys required. Provide your ASIN list and marketplace. Use Apify Residential Proxies for best results — Amazon's bot detection is aggressive on datacenter IPs. ### n8n integration Schedule this actor daily → filter `buyBoxChanged: true` or `priceFlagged: true` → send Slack or email alert. # Actor input Schema ## `asins` (type: `array`): List of Amazon ASINs to monitor. Example: 'B08N5WRWNW'. Max 500 per run. ## `marketplace` (type: `string`): Which Amazon marketplace to check prices and rankings for. ## `trackBsrHistory` (type: `boolean`): Store BSR snapshots in Actor's Key-Value Store to calculate rank changes over time. ## `alertOnBuyBoxChange` (type: `boolean`): Adds a buyBoxChanged flag when the Buy Box winner is different from the last run. ## `alertOnPriceDropPercent` (type: `number`): Flag ASINs where price dropped by more than this percentage since last run. Set to 0 to disable. ## `includeOfferCount` (type: `boolean`): Include number of competing sellers for each ASIN. ## `includeReviewVelocity` (type: `boolean`): Calculate how many new reviews appeared since the last run. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Residential proxy strongly recommended for Amazon. Use Apify Residential proxies. ## Actor input object example ```json { "asins": [ "B08N5WRWNW" ], "marketplace": "amazon.co.uk", "trackBsrHistory": true, "alertOnBuyBoxChange": true, "alertOnPriceDropPercent": 10, "includeOfferCount": true, "includeReviewVelocity": true } ```` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
