The FBA Toolkit has 3 main features:

Sales rank: can give you an estimate of the sales that are made every day for a specific product on Amazon.
Price list analysis: upload a spreadsheet with UPCs/EANs/ASIN and estimated cost and obtain it’s current offers, estimated sales rate, profit and markup
Product tracker: tracks the price, stock and sales for the merchants in a listing

So, long story short, FBA Toolkit is a paid alternative to Keepa or CamelCamelCamel.

If you want to obtain an estimate of sales, it is necessary that you:

FBA Toolkit Review

FBA Toolkit used to be a must years ago.

Lucky for us, we have great alternatives for product research, tracking and competition watching which we can trust more than FBA Toolkit. I’m not saying their data is not trustable, but the fact that the service can be stopped or cancelled at any moment without getting a refund it’s pretty scary if you ask me.

Focusing on the features, FBA Toolkit is a more complete alternative to it’s direct competitors: Keepa and CamelCamelCamel. Yet those are 100% free (except Keepa’s API).

As for the marketplaces it’s working on, it will save you lots of time if you’re not working on the Asian market, as it has no service for Amazon China or Japan.

In conclusion: obviously, it works. But I think we have other payment alternatives which are far more complete and with a (way better) user interface.
