Running a Listing Analysis: Selecting Products, Competitors, and Creating Sessions

Overview

This article explains how to create a Listing Analyser session by selecting a primary product, choosing competitor products, and initiating an analysis. Each analysis run is handled as a session and processes listing data in the background.

Explanation

A Listing Analyser session compares one primary ASIN with a set of competitor ASINs. The system validates all inputs, checks credit availability, and ensures no other session is currently in progress before starting the analysis. Once initiated, the session moves through queued and in-progress states before completing.

Usage

Users run a listing analysis when they want to evaluate how a specific product listing compares against competing products on Amazon at a given point in time. Each session captures a snapshot of listing data for comparison and review.

Steps

  1. Navigate to Listing Management → Listing Analyser.

  2. Select the Amazon marketplace from the marketplace selector.

  3. Choose a primary product (ASIN) from the product list associated with the selected marketplace.

  4. Add competitor ASINs to compare against the primary product.

  5. Ensure at least 1 and no more than 10 competitor ASINs are selected.

  6. Click Analyze Products to start the analysis session.

Important Rules and Behavior

  1. The primary ASIN is required and must belong to the selected Amazon marketplace.

  2. Competitor ASINs must be valid Amazon ASINs and cannot include the primary ASIN.

  3. A minimum of 1 and a maximum of 10 competitor ASINs can be analyzed in a single session.

  4. Only one analysis session can be created while no other session is in progress or queued.

  5. Each successful analysis initiation consumes 1 Listing Management credit.

  6. If credits are exhausted, the Analyze Products action is disabled.

  7. In demo or impersonation mode, analysis sessions cannot be created.

Summary

Creating a Listing Analyser session involves selecting a valid Amazon marketplace, one primary product, and up to ten competitor products, then initiating the analysis. The system enforces strict validation, credit usage, and session limits to ensure consistent and reliable analysis results.
