amazon-serp-analysis#

Comprehensive Amazon niche analysis pipeline. Input: a seed keyword. Output: full track landscape map, competition scoring, demand assessment, and go/no-go recommendation with specific entry angles.

Requirements#

• omni-scraper skill installed and configured (required — provides SERP + PDP data)
• amazon-listing-judge skill installed (optional — adds listing quality depth)
• SellerSprite MCP tools (optional — adds keyword volume and search trends)
• ClickHouse MCP (optional — adds historical brand analytics data)

---

Workflow#

Step 1 — Seed SERP Scrape#

Scrape Amazon search results for the seed keyword:

bash

curl -s -X POST "$CLAW_API_BASE/api/scrape" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "claw_key": "'"$CLAW_KEY"'",
    "url": "https://www.amazon.com/s?k=KEYWORD_URL_ENCODED",
    "mode": "scraper"
  }'

From the response parsed.results, extract for each position:

• position, asin, title, price, rating, review_count, bought_past_month, sponsored, ac_badge

Stop if: parsed is null and body is also null — report error and stop.

---

Step 2 — Keyword Expansion (build track landscape)#

Goal: identify 5–10 related search terms that form the full track.

If SellerSprite MCP is available, use it to expand keywords:

text

mcp__sellersprite-mcp__keyword_miner  { keyword: "<seed>", marketplace: "US" }
mcp__sellersprite-mcp__traffic_extend { keyword: "<seed>", marketplace: "US" }

Take the top 5–8 related keywords by search volume.

Fallback (no SellerSprite): Infer related keywords from SERP titles by:

1. Extracting noun phrases and modifiers from the top 10 product titles
2. Identifying variant terms (material, size, use-case, audience)
3. Generating 5–8 plausible search terms that a buyer might use
4. Label these as "inferred" in the output

If ClickHouse MCP is available, check brand analytics trend data:

sql

SELECT search_term, SUM(clicks) as total_clicks
FROM amazon.brand_analytics
WHERE search_term ILIKE '%<seed>%'
  AND date >= today() - INTERVAL 90 DAY
GROUP BY search_term
ORDER BY total_clicks DESC
LIMIT 10

This validates which related terms have real search volume.

---

Step 3 — Scrape 1–2 Key Related Keywords#

Pick the 2 highest-volume related keywords from Step 2 and scrape their SERPs (same curl as Step 1). This reveals:

• Whether the same products dominate multiple related SERPs (brand lock)
• Price and review patterns across the broader track

Token budget: If context is getting long, skip this step and note it was skipped.

---

Step 4 — Deep-dive Top 5 Organic Products#

For the top 5 non-sponsored products from the seed keyword SERP:

If amazon-listing-judge is available:

bash

uv run <amazon-listing-judge-skill-dir>/scripts/grade.py <ASIN>

Record the total score and key weaknesses.

Fallback: Use the SERP data already collected. Estimate listing quality as:

• High (>80): has AC/BS badge + ≥4.5 stars + ≥1K reviews + bought_past_month
• Medium (55-80): has some but not all signals
• Low (<55): no badges, low reviews, no sales velocity signal

---

Step 5 — Competition Scoring#

Calculate the following metrics from collected data:

5a. Review Barrier

text

avg_reviews = average review count of top 10 organic results

• < 200 reviews avg → Low barrier (🟢 +2)
• 200–1,000 → Medium barrier (🟡 +1)
• 1,000–3,000 → High barrier (🔴 0)

• 3,000 → Very high barrier (🔴 -1)

5b. Brand Concentration

text

count unique brands in top 10 organic results

• 8–10 unique brands → Fragmented (🟢 +2)
• 5–7 unique brands → Moderate (🟡 +1)
• 3–4 unique brands → Concentrated (🔴 0)
• 1–2 brands dominating 5+ spots → Locked (🔴 -1)

5c. Demand Signals

Count how many of the top 10 organic results have "bought in past month" badge:

• 6–10 products → Hot track (🟢 +2)
• 3–5 products → Active (🟡 +1)
• 0–2 products → Low demand or seasonal (🔴 0)

5d. Listing Quality Gap

Average listing quality score of top 5 organic products:

• Average score < 60 → Big quality gap (🟢 +2, easy to outcompete)
• 60–75 → Some gap (🟡 +1)

• 75 → Well-optimized (🔴 0)

5e. Price Range Health

text

min_price = lowest price among top 10
max_price = highest price among top 10
range_ratio = max_price / min_price

• ratio > 3 → Wide range, room to position (🟢 +1)
• ratio 1.5–3 → Moderate (🟡 0)
• ratio < 1.5 → Commodity, price war risk (🔴 -1)

Competition Score Total (max 9)

text

competition_score = sum of all sub-scores above

• 7–9 → 🟢 Low competition — favorable
• 4–6 → 🟡 Moderate — conditional entry
• 0–3 → 🔴 High competition — difficult

---

Step 6 — Track Demand Score#

Estimate overall demand level:

If SellerSprite available: use traffic_keyword_stat for monthly search volume.

From SERP signals:

• Count products with "bought in past month" → quantify total estimated monthly units
• Estimate: if avg = "1K+" per product × 10 products = ~10K monthly units in track
• Note: this is a rough lower bound estimate

Seasonal flags:

• If keyword contains holiday/event terms, flag as seasonal
• If ClickHouse shows <3 months of search history, flag as trend/fad

Step 7 — Synthesis & Recommendation#

Entry Assessment Matrix

FactorYour ScoreImplicationCompetition scoreX/9Demand levelHigh/Med/LowPrice positioning roomYes/NoListing quality gapYes/No

Verdict

🟢 GO — competition_score ≥ 7 AND demand ≥ Medium 🟡 CONDITIONAL — competition_score 4–6 OR strong demand with one differentiator 🔴 NO-GO — competition_score ≤ 3 OR demand Low with high barrier

Entry Angle Candidates (pick the best fit)

1. Price disruption: If top products cluster at $20+, enter at $12–15 with comparable quality
2. Listing quality gap: If top listings score < 65, win on listing optimization alone
3. Underserved variant: If SERP titles share one attribute, find the missing variant buyers search for
4. Bundle/differentiation: If all products are standalone, add accessories or improved feature
5. Niche long-tail: If main keyword is crowded, target the highest-volume related term with lower competition
