What Data to Provide

• Product idea / keyword — what you want to research
• Amazon search results data — titles, prices, BSRs, review counts from the page
• Category — main category (used for BSR-to-sales conversion)
• Your target price point — expected selling price
• Sourcing context — where you plan to source (Alibaba, domestic, etc.)

Product Research Framework

Step 1: Market Size Estimation

Estimate monthly revenue for the top 10 results:

• Total market revenue = sum of estimated monthly revenue for top 10 listings
• Healthy market: Top 10 generate $50,000-$500,000/month combined
• Too small (\x3C$30k): Limited opportunity
• Too large (>$1M): Possibly too competitive for new entrant

Step 2: BSR to Sales Volume Conversion

Estimated monthly sales by category and BSR:

Category: Kitchen & Home
BSR 1-100:      8,000-50,000 units/month
BSR 100-500:    2,000-8,000 units/month
BSR 500-1000:   800-2,000 units/month
BSR 1000-3000:  300-800 units/month
BSR 3000-10000: 100-300 units/month
BSR 10000+:     \x3C100 units/month

Category: Sports & Outdoors
BSR 1-100:      5,000-30,000 units/month
BSR 100-500:    1,500-5,000 units/month
BSR 500-2000:   500-1,500 units/month
BSR 2000-5000:  150-500 units/month
BSR 5000-15000: 50-150 units/month

Adjust by ±30% based on seasonality and listing quality.

Step 3: Competition Analysis

Assess the top 10 listings:

Step 4: Product Opportunity Score (POS)

Score 0-100 based on 10 factors:

1. Search volume (keyword demand)        0-10 pts
2. Revenue potential (top 10 combined)   0-10 pts
3. Competition gap (review accessibility) 0-10 pts
4. Margin potential (price vs. cost)     0-10 pts
5. Product simplicity (risk of defects)  0-10 pts
6. Differentiation potential             0-10 pts
7. Seasonal stability                    0-10 pts
8. Sourcing accessibility               0-10 pts
9. Regulatory risk (no hazmat/IP issues) 0-10 pts
10. Growth trajectory                   0-10 pts

POS 75+:  Strong opportunity — proceed to sourcing
POS 60-74: Moderate opportunity — validate further
POS 45-59: Weak opportunity — significant risks
POS \x3C45:  Pass — not worth pursuing
