Amazon Best Sellers Scraper

Scrape Amazon's ranked lists - Best Sellers, New Releases, Movers & Shakers, Most Wished For and Gift Ideas - for any category on 20 Amazon marketplaces and get clean structured JSON: rank, ASIN, title, price and currency, rating, review count, image and product URL, plus sales-rank moves on Movers & Shakers. No login, no proxies or browsers to configure.

Features

• Five ranked lists - Best Sellers, New Releases, Movers & Shakers, Most Wished For and Gift Ideas.
• Any category depth - a department slug (electronics), a subcategory by browse-node ID (electronics/172541 = Headphones), or just paste the list URL from Amazon.
• 20 marketplaces - amazon.com, .co.uk, .de, .fr, .it, .es, .nl, .se, .pl, .com.be, .com.tr, .ca, .com.mx, .com.br, .co.jp, .in, .ae, .sa, .sg, .com.au.
• Local prices - pages are loaded from the marketplace's home country, so prices come in the store's currency.
• Up to 100 products per list (the full list Amazon publishes).
• Category tree - the category's parents and subcategories (with node IDs and URLs) are saved in the key-value store as a CATEGORY-... record, so you can drill down.
• Many categories per run, scraped in parallel.

Use cases

• Product research and finding winning products for e-commerce and dropshipping.
• Tracking rank changes and trends across categories and countries.
• Competitor and brand monitoring on Amazon's top lists.
• Price and rating snapshots of category leaders.

Example input

{
  "categories": ["electronics/172541", "toys-and-games", "https://www.amazon.de/gp/new-releases/kitchen/"],
  "list_type": "bestsellers",
  "marketplace": "amazon.com",
  "max_results": 50
}

Output

One dataset item per ranked product:

{
  "rank": 1,
  "asin": "B08JHCVHTY",
  "title": "blink plus plan with monthly auto-renewal",
  "url": "https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08JHCVHTY",
  "image": "https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/31YHGbJsldL._AC_UL600_SR600,400_.png",
  "price": 11.99,
  "currency": "USD",
  "priceRaw": "$11.99",
  "offersCount": null,
  "rating": 4.4,
  "reviewsCount": 280618,
  "salesRank": null,
  "previousSalesRank": null,
  "salesRankChangePct": null,
  "listType": "bestsellers",
  "listTitle": "Best Sellers in Electronics",
  "marketplace": "amazon.com",
  "categoryName": "Electronics",
  "categorySlug": "electronics",
  "categoryNodeId": null,
  "categoryUrl": "https://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/electronics/",
  "categoryInput": "electronics"
}

salesRank, previousSalesRank and salesRankChangePct are filled in on Movers & Shakers lists. When Amazon has no list for a category at the moment (it says "no movers and shakers available"), that category ends up in the ERRORS record, unbilled.

Categories that fail (unknown slug or node ID, no list published) are listed in the ERRORS record of the key-value store and are not billed.

Pricing

$0.50 per 1000 products. Failed categories are not charged.

Notes

• Amazon lists hold at most 100 products (two pages of 50).
• A few products occasionally come back with only rank, ASIN and URL when Amazon does not render their card.
