The platform is designed for ambitious FBA and FBM sellers, wholesalers, and arbitrage experts who need to make fast, confident buying decisions to fuel their growth. Its core value proposition is simple: replace estimates with absolute certainty. By uploading any supplier spreadsheet, Rocket Source's AI instantly maps your columns and rips through the entire file—even those with 500,000+ rows—pulling live, real-time data directly from Amazon's API across 18 global marketplaces. You get over 60 critical data points per SKU, including actual Buy Box prices, precise FBA fees, sales rank, competition levels, and crucial restriction flags. This means you see true, real-time profit margins, not rough calculations. It empowers sellers to instantly filter to their exact buying criteria, block problematic brands, and avoid dead inventory, ensuring every dollar is invested in products that will sell and profit.

Features of Rocket Source

AI-Powered Supplier File Analysis

Forget manual column matching and hours of data entry. Rocket Source's advanced AI automatically maps the columns in any supplier spreadsheet you upload, whether it's from a wholesaler, liquidator, or distributor. This intelligent processing allows the system to instantly identify and analyze millions of SKUs, pulling the corresponding live Amazon data for each one without any tedious setup, so you can go from file upload to actionable insights in minutes.

Live Amazon Data & 60+ Data Points

Move beyond static estimates and outdated information. Rocket Source connects directly to Amazon's API to fetch real-time, accurate data for every product. This includes the current Buy Box price, exact FBA fulfillment fees, sales rank (BSR), offer counts, and vital eligibility flags for hazmat, gated brands, and restrictions. With over 60 data points like Keepa price history, competition breakdown, and product dimensions, you build a complete picture of profitability and risk.

Scalable Browser-Based Processing

Handle massive sourcing files without expensive software or hardware. Rocket Source's powerful infrastructure runs entirely in your web browser, capable of processing files with over 500,000 rows. This cloud-native approach means there are no limits tied to your local machine's power, enabling you to analyze entire wholesale catalogs or liquidation lists quickly and efficiently, directly from any computer.

Full API Access & Automation

Integrate Rocket Source's deep data directly into your existing business workflow. With full API access included in the Scale plan, you can build custom automations, connect the data to your inventory management systems, or create tailored sourcing applications. This feature is offered at no extra charge, providing the building blocks for sophisticated, hands-off sourcing pipelines that grow with your business.

Use Cases of Rocket Source

Wholesale FBA Sourcing

Rapidly evaluate wholesale supplier price lists to identify high-margin opportunities. By uploading a distributor's catalog, sellers can instantly see real net profit after Amazon fees, filter out restricted or gated products, and assess demand via BSR and competition levels. This turns a days-long manual research process into a task of minutes, allowing for quick negotiation and purchase of winning products.

Online Arbitrage Deal Analysis

Quickly vet thousands of potential deals from retail websites during flash sales or clearance events. Sellers can compile product lists, upload them to Rocket Source, and immediately see the current Amazon selling price, fees, and net profit. This enables lightning-fast decision-making to capitalize on time-sensitive arbitrage opportunities before they sell out.

Inventory Portfolio Auditing

Proactively manage existing inventory by analyzing the current market health of your ASINs. Upload your active product list to monitor shifts in Buy Box price, increased competition, or changes in Amazon's fee structure. This helps identify products that are becoming unprofitable or at risk of becoming dead stock, informing strategic repricing or liquidation decisions.

Large-Scale Liquidation Sourcing

Safely navigate bulk liquidation and pallet purchases where product conditions are mixed. By analyzing the list of ASINs in a lot, you can use Rocket Source's data to estimate the average profitable yield, flag potentially restricted items, and calculate a maximum bid price based on real-time Amazon data, de-risking large capital investments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of files can I upload to Rocket Source?

Rocket Source is designed to work with any spreadsheet file you receive from a supplier. This includes common formats like .xlsx, .xls, and .csv files. The platform's AI will automatically detect and map standard column headers like SKU, UPC, or ASIN to begin pulling data. There is no need for you to reformat or standardize your supplier's file manually.

How accurate is the profit calculation?

The profit calculation is highly accurate because it is based on live data pulled directly from Amazon's API, not estimates. This includes the exact current Buy Box price and the precise FBA fee calculated by Amazon for the product's specific size, weight, and category. By using these real-time figures, Rocket Source shows you the actual net margin you can expect, accounting for Amazon's latest fee changes.

Can I use Rocket Source for marketplaces outside the USA?

What does the API access allow me to do?

The full API access, included with the Scale plan, allows developers and technically-inclined sellers to integrate Rocket Source's data processing power directly into their own systems. You can automate the entire sourcing workflow, build custom dashboards, connect product data to your ERP or inventory software, or create private tools for your team, all without manual file uploads through the web interface.
