Why "enterprise lite" rarely works

Most enterprise price tools offer a "starter" tier that's really just a discount on their existing platform. You inherit the complexity (dozens of unused reports, scheduled-job UIs, integration consultants) without the corresponding benefit. Boutique brands need tools designed for them from the ground up.

1. Price-Scan — best overall for brand enforcement

Per-product pricing ($10/SKU/mo), 15-minute refresh, built-in C&D drafting, and ghost-seller identity resolution. Designed specifically for brands with 5–200 hero SKUs across multiple marketplaces.

2. Keepa — best for Amazon-only price history

Free tier covers basic price history graphs; paid tier ($19/mo) adds alerts. Excellent for Amazon-only research but lacks cross-marketplace, evidence capture, or any enforcement workflow.

3. SellerApp — best for Amazon repricing context

Combines competitor tracking with Amazon ad data. Useful if you sell your own brand on Amazon 1P/3P. Less useful for off-Amazon enforcement.

4. PriceLabs (vacation rental) — n/a — skip

Often shows up in searches; it's for vacation rental dynamic pricing, not retail.

5. Manual Google Shopping + IFTTT — best $0 option

For brands with under 5 SKUs: a Google Shopping saved search piped to Slack via IFTTT is genuinely sufficient. Just don't expect timestamps, evidence, or seller identity.

How to pick

If you're managing brand enforcement, optimize for detection latency and evidence quality — not URL throughput. Anything slower than hourly refresh is enforcement theater.
