SentinelIQ™

One view of what a unit actually earns

Our in house reporting layer. It exists because no off the shelf tool would join advertising spend to fee statements to cost of goods without somebody doing the joins by hand every month.

SentinelIQ pulls your sales, advertising, DSP, and Amazon Marketing Cloud data into a single view, then subtracts everything Amazon takes. What comes out the other side is contribution margin per unit, per ASIN, per week.

It is not a product we sell. It is the thing our strategists work from, and clients get access to it because arguing about whose number is right wastes a call every month. When we say a product lost money, you can click into the line and see why.

What goes into it

01

Seller Central

Orders, returns, inventory, and every fee line on the settlement report.

02

Advertising

Sponsored Products, Brands, Display, and DSP, at the campaign and search term level.

03

Amazon Marketing Cloud

The event level data behind audience building and path to purchase.

04

Retail media

Walmart Connect, Roundel, and Instacart pulled into the same shape as Amazon.

05

Your cost of goods

Landed cost per unit, kept current, because the rest of it is meaningless without this.

06

Rank and Buy Box

Daily organic position on your target terms and Buy Box share by ASIN.

Being straight about what this is

SentinelIQ is reporting, not magic. It does not predict Amazon’s algorithm, it does not bid for you, and it will not tell you anything your own analyst could not work out given a month and a lot of spreadsheets. What it does is make that work take minutes instead, which is why our recommendations can be checked rather than believed.

Questions about the reporting

Bring us a month of data and we will show you the difference

Most brands are surprised by at least one product when they see it with fees and advertising allocated properly. Sometimes pleasantly.
