Good analysis framing, but it outsources the scraping
Takes a list of ASINs and produces surgical competitive analysis: price bands, specification diffs, review quality and sentiment, visual strategy — framed as moats versus vulnerabilities, which is the genuinely useful part. The scraping itself runs through browseract.com's automation API and needs BROWSERACT_API_KEY, so you inherit a third party's reliability and bill. Useful when a real decision depends on the comparison; overkill for a quick price check.
Use case: Deciding which competitor specification gap to attack next quarter

Competitive analysis from amazon product identifiers
This skill collects product data for a set of market identifiers and turns it into a structured comparison. It is aimed at pricing, specification and review strategy questions rather than at routine listing monitoring. ## What it does - Extracts title, price, rating, review count and images for each supplied identifier. - Performs deep specification extraction covering features and materials. - Analyses review patterns, keywords and sentiment rather than raw review counts. - Builds a side by side comparison across the supplied products. - Frames the result as competitor moats and vulnerabilities. ## When it is the wrong choice Collection runs through a third party browser automation service, so it is neither free nor instant, and extraction breaks whenever the marketplace changes its markup. Comparing products from unrelated categories produces confident nonsense, so identifiers must belong to one real market. For a single product check, opening the page by hand is faster and free; this tool earns its cost when several competitors must be judged on the same axes. ```bash # the collector authenticates with a browseract key from the environment export <browseract_key_variable>=<value> # then pass the identifiers for one market per run # a single run compares every identifier it receives ``` ## Working notes - Review quality and sentiment usually explain price differences better than star averages. - Specification differences decide long term positioning more than price alone.
