Research Product

What It Does

research_product captures one Amazon US product. It reads the sales and price of the product, the keywords it ranks for, matching suppliers, and the markets it belongs to.

Each part stays fresh for a set time: the sales and price data and the keywords for 1 day, the market match for 7 days, and the suppliers for 30 days. Only the parts that are not fresh run again.

The research usually finishes in less than one minute. The tool waits up to 40 seconds. If the research does not finish in that time, the answer gives a job id for get_job.

When To Use It

Use research_product when get_product finds no product, or when the product data is out of date. To read a product that is in the catalog, use get_product. It is free.

Inputs

What The Answer Contains

• When the research finishes in 40 seconds, the answer is the product brief. It is the same brief that get_product gives.
• A notice says if the call spent 1 credit, or if it was free because you joined a research of this product that was already running.
• If the keyword, supplier, or market part takes longer, that section of the brief says so. The answer gives the call to read it later, for example get_product with view=keywords.
• When the research takes longer than 40 seconds, the answer gives the job id and the next call to make. If you joined a research of this product that someone else started, the next call is research_product again, not get_job.
• When every part is still fresh, the answer is the brief, free of charge.

App View

When the research finishes and your AI app supports MCP Apps, it shows the result in this view. The image shows example data.

Example Prompts

Refresh the Launch Fast data for B0C1EXAMPL. The numbers look old.
