GETTING STARTED · SELLER SOURCING

Source smarter with intelligence

This quickstart walks you through the seller-sourcing workflow: find what to sell with the Niche Finder, score the products in a category with Top Sourcing Picks, read the seller network behind it, and look up any ASIN's full operator history — using real, observed cross-seller intelligence.

01

Start with the Niche Finder — "what should I sell?"

Open Sourcing → Niche Finder, enter your interests, a target price band, and how much competition you'll tolerate. You get back ten niche cards — each with real example products and real demand + competition metrics — surfacing under-served categories worth entering. It's the front door: it turns "I want to sell on Amazon" into a short list of specific, winnable categories.

02

Open a niche's Top Sourcing Picks

From any niche card, open its Top Sourcing Picks (the Discover view for that category). Every product is scored by our Sourcing Score — demand and velocity, competition, gating risk, entry friction, and brand control — so you can see, ASIN by ASIN, what's actually worth sourcing. This is the daily "what should I source today" loop.

03

Explore the category's seller network

Hit the Network button next to a category to open its seller-network graph — the shared-seller web behind the category: which operators sell across it, how concentrated it is, and where the openings are. A fragmented category with no dominant operator is an easier room to enter than one a single seller controls.

04

Look up any product — the ASIN dossier

Use Product Lookup (paste an ASIN, UPC, brand, or seller) for a product's full dossier: who controls the buy box, up to two years of seller history, the operators behind it, price history, and FBA / FBM / Amazon fulfillment. If a product isn't in our catalog yet, the on-demand live pull fetches it in real time — you're never stuck at a dead end.

05

Follow a seller or operator's full network

On any seller, open their network to see everything else that operator carries and the related brands worth chasing. It's how you go from a single product to a whole sourcing thread — find an operator doing well in your niche, then mine the rest of their catalog.

06

Track it with the Watchlist

Add the ASINs and brands you're evaluating to your Watchlist to monitor them over time — new sellers entering, buy-box shifts, price moves. It turns a one-off lookup into an ongoing signal you don't have to re-run by hand.

07

Ask Webotee

Ask Webotee answers natural-language questions over your data — "which sellers contest this brand?", "what's the gating risk in this category?" — without you assembling a report by hand.

08

Install Webotee Scout (free Chrome extension)

Webotee Scout scores any Amazon or Walmart product page in place — Sourcing Score, brand health, the seller network, and the Walmart cross-market price — so you can qualify products while you browse. It's free.

09

Plans & daily limits

Scout Free ($0) gives you the whole workflow with daily limits on runs and lookups. Scout ($89), Scout Pro ($179), and Scout + Protect ($295) raise those daily limits and the history window; Scout + Protect adds web-wide MAP monitoring. When you hit a daily cap the app tells you and links to the upgrade page — you're never hard-blocked in the middle of a task.

Our lane — and where to go next

We don't chase BSR-spike virality; a product trending on social isn't a durable sourcing signal. Our lane is real, observed seller and operator intelligence — who actually controls a product, how stable the economics are, and when a distribution window opens. Read the Data Methodology page for how the Sourcing Score and seller history are built.
