What is Shopkeeper?

Shopkeeper is a profit dashboard for Amazon sellers, built around clarity. Sales, fees, costs and net profit land on one screen, the mobile app puts that number in your pocket, and plan tiers are priced by monthly order volume, starting at $20 per month for up to 250 orders. Alongside the software it sells services: reimbursement recovery, account appeals, PPC management and coaching.

Stay on Shopkeeper if

  • One clean profit screen is exactly the scope you want
  • A mobile app with push alerts is part of your daily routine
  • You want reimbursement recovery and appeals as done-for-you services
  • Your order volume is low enough that the entry tier is the cheapest option

Switch to Nova if

  • You need to explain a margin drop, not just see it
  • You want product-level ad spend inside the P&L
  • You group results by brand, category, lifecycle or your own tags
  • You want your Amazon data queryable from Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini
