What is Keepa?
Keepa is an online tool that gives detailed information and tracking on product prices on Amazon. It is similar to what CamelCamelCamelCamel but it also saves the history of offers, prices of second-hand products, who had the Buy Box and other data.
It works as an extension for Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Opera. It installs in the browser and adds buttons and information on Amazon product pages, related to prices. Unlike Helium 10, which offers more tools and functions, Keepa focuses more on historical price information / BuyBox and number of product sellers.
What is Keepa for?
It is an essential tool for those who want to monitor product prices on Amazon. It allows Amazon sellers and buyers to make decisions about when to buy or sell a product based on its price history.
For example, it is the number 1 extension if you are dedicated to arbitrage on Amazon, as you can see the history or even the seasonality of a product, as well as get its minimum / maximum price, historical number of sellers, if Amazon is one of the sellers, if there is second hand market, etc..
Advantages of Keepa
Some of Keepa's advantages include its ease of use, the ability to set price alerts and the clear display of historical product price data.

These are the main actions that this extension can perform:

Review and opinions of Keepa
Keepa is a must-have tool for anyone buying or selling on Amazon. As experts in digital marketing, ecommerce and Amazon, we have been using this extension for years and have found numerous benefits in using it. For example, in my case, I use it for audits. I can pull up the price history, number of sellers and BuyBox % for each of them 1 or 2 years ahead. This allows me to analyze in which periods of the year there are more sellers competing and in which others I have "the BuyBox only for me" to be able to carry out stock purchase or even repricing strategies.
For both my clients and Amazon resellers, Keepa gives a 100% clear and detailed view of historical product prices, allowing us to identify trends, establish pricing strategies and take advantage of buying opportunities. In addition, the ability to set price alerts has helped us to be aware of price changes and act quickly.
However, it is important to note that Keepa may require some learning time to understand all its functionalities and take full advantage of its advanced features. It is not so easy to "read Keepa's charts", which are more akin to stock market history than a simple chart to interpret.
In addition, some of the limitations I have found are the lack of support for certain product categories and the need to have an account to access some premium features.
In short, it is a super powerful and highly recommended tool for those who want to maximize their buying and selling opportunities on Amazon.

First of all, I have been in Amazon arbitrage for 4 years and Keepa is the only tool that is essential if you want to dedicate yourself to this. There is no other tool like it. It is true that you have alternatives like BuyBotPro, SellerAMP and others, but none is as good as Keepa.
Can they be complementary to Keepa? Yes.
Do they replace Keepa? No. Never.
In addition, it has an API, which allows you to create your own queries to pull data from 500 million products. With Chatgpt, you can make simple queries to attack the database and get things like: price history, sales ranking history, number of offers, number of Sellers, category details, search and navigation or lists of best sellers up to 500,000 ASINs. I repeat: THERE IS NOT ANYTHING ON THE MARKET LIKE IT.
Of course, it takes time, effort and a lot of mistakes to understand Keepa charts. There are many tutorials on Youtube to get you started. At first, it seems like astrology, but I'm telling you it's not. Once you understand these charts, you know exactly which products are worth reselling and which products you shouldn't even touch with a stick.
