Sales-aware inventory review:

Ads-aware inventory review:

Find advertised products with low inventory so I know where ad spend may need closer review.

How To Read The Results

Inventory is most useful when read together with sales velocity.

Signal typeLook for
Positive signalsEnough sellable stock to cover expected demand, inbound stock arriving before current inventory runs out, healthy days of cover for top-selling products, no major mismatch between ad spend and stock, or inventory spread across important SKUs and marketplaces.
Risk signalsLow days of cover on top-selling products, strong sales velocity with little or no inbound stock, reserved inventory making sellable stock lower than expected, ads still spending on products with low stock, slow-moving inventory with high stock levels, or missing inventory data for expected products.

Common Analysis Patterns

Use Claude to turn inventory data into decisions.

PatternAsk Claude to identify
Low-stock scanWhich products may run out soon.
Restock priorityWhich low-stock products matter most based on sales velocity.
Overstock checkWhich SKUs have high inventory but weak sales.
Ads riskWhich advertised products are too low on stock.
Sales follow-upWhether top-selling ASINs are adequately stocked.
Marketplace reviewWhich marketplace has the highest inventory risk.

Suggested Workflow

Start With Summary

Run summary to understand overall inventory position.

Scan For Low Stock

Run low_stock with a threshold such as 30 days of cover.

Inspect Priority Products

Use by_asin or sku for products that need deeper review.

Compare Sales Demand

Compare low-stock products with Sales to understand recent demand.

Compare Ads Exposure

Compare low-stock advertised products with Amazon Ads tools.

Review Profit Pressure

Use Finance if you need to understand whether storage, fees, or settlements are affecting profitability.

Common Empty Result Causes

Empty or thin inventory results may mean no matching synced rows were found.

CauseRecovery
Seller Central/SP-API is not connected.Connect Seller Central/SP-API in Settings -> Authentication.
Inventory data has not synced yet.Wait for sync to finish.
ASIN or SKU does not match synced inventory records.Check the exact ASIN or seller SKU and retry.
Selected marketplace has no matching rows.Remove the marketplace filter or try another marketplace.
seller_id or connection_id is too narrow.Remove account filters and let Claude inspect available data.
Date range has no sales velocity data.Use a broader or more recent date range.
Product is not in the synced inventory feed.Confirm it is currently in FBA or available in the synced inventory source.

Try this recovery prompt:

Try the inventory summary again without ASIN, SKU, seller, connection, or marketplace filters.

For a product-specific query:

Search inventory by SKU instead of ASIN and use the last 30 days for velocity.

Safety Notes

Amazon Inventory is read-only.

It can inspectIt does not change
Synced inventory, sellable stock, reserved stock, inbound stock, days of cover, and low-stock risk.Inventory quantities, shipments, restock orders, fulfillment settings, listings, prices, ads, or Seller Central settings.

Claude can recommend restock priorities, but any inventory action must be taken manually outside this MCP tool.
