AgentXray vs AMZScout (2026): Research extension vs operations AI
Last updated: 2026-09-06
TL;DR
Different jobs. AMZScout is a product-research suite: a Chrome extension on Amazon pages, a product database, a sales estimator and a keyword tracker, at $45.99/mo for the PRO AI Extension, $269.99/yr, or $799.99 once for lifetime access. AgentXray runs what you already sell: profit measured from the settlement line items Amazon posted, net contribution per advertising arm, and your own Claude or ChatGPT drafting the bid, budget and listing changes a person approves, from $29/mo, with a 14-day trial that asks for a card. If you are choosing what to sell and like paying once, AMZScout. If you are running a live catalog, us.
AMZScout is a long-running Amazon product research suite known for its Chrome extension and for a lifetime-deal option that subscription-averse sellers value. AgentXray (Avanta Global EOOD, Sofia) is built by an active Amazon seller and is not a research tool: its research stack is paused while its market-data feed is on hold, and this page no longer sells it. What it does is the operations layer after the decision — settlement-measured profit, per-arm net contribution, drafts a person approves. Written from AMZScout's published pricing and our own measured surfaces.
The tools compared
AgentXray
From $29/mo — 14-day trial with a card on file; paid tiers differ only by monthly order volume. USD billing, no commission.
Amazon operations AI for Claude and ChatGPT: settlement-measured profit, drafts a human approves.
Strengths
- Profit and fees from the settlement line items Amazon posted — gaps shown, never estimated
- Net contribution per advertising arm, and a break-even ACoS from your own fees
- Your own Claude or ChatGPT drafts bids, budgets, negatives and listing edits; you approve them in the browser
- Applied changes judged 14 days later on net contribution, or reported as inconclusive
- A free scan sample without an account, before you connect anything
Best for: Sellers running a live catalog who want the measured number and an AI that proposes rather than acts.
AMZScout
$45.99/mo — PRO AI Extension; $269.99/yr; lifetime $799.99 one-time; 10-day money-back guarantee. learn.amzscout.net/pricing-pro-ai, read 2026-09-30

Verdict by use case
- Deciding what to sell: AMZScout
- Paying once instead of monthly: AMZScout
- Research inside Amazon pages (Chrome extension): AMZScout
- Knowing what a unit earned after the fees Amazon posted: AgentXray
- Letting your own AI draft changes you approve: AgentXray
- Trying before paying (14-day trial vs 10-day money-back): AgentXray
Where we do not win: AMZScout decides what to sell, estimates sales for products you do not own, lives inside Amazon pages and can be paid for once — none of which we do, and our research stack is paused. Where we do: once the product is live, the profit number comes from the settlement and leads to a draft your own assistant writes and a person approves. Pick by the job, not the price tag.
Frequently asked questions
- Is AgentXray an AMZScout alternative?
- Not for deciding what to sell. AMZScout researches; AgentXray runs what you already sell — settlement-measured profit and drafts you approve.
- Does AgentXray have a lifetime deal?
- No. Tiers are monthly and differ only by order volume; every plan starts with a 14-day trial, card required. AMZScout's one-time payment is a real advantage for sellers who dislike subscriptions.
- Does AgentXray do product research?
- No. The research tools are paused while their market-data feed is on hold, and this page no longer sells them.
- Can I use both?
- Yes. Decide with AMZScout; then measure what the product earned against the money Amazon actually posted, and draft the changes you want to approve first, with AgentXray.
- Can I see what AgentXray changed on my Amazon account, and undo it?
- Yes. Every change — a bid, a budget, a price, listing copy or an image — is a draft you approve first, shown next to the value it replaces. After approval it stays in your change log, is followed for 14 days and judged on the money it made after fees and ad spend. Bids, budgets, campaign and target states, placements, prices, listing copy and images can be undone from there; the undo is itself a draft you approve.
- Does AgentXray tell me when Amazon closes a shipment with units missing?
- Yes. It shows the shortfall per SKU, when Amazon last received units on that shipment, any inbound reimbursement already paid, and the value at your own unit cost, with case text to paste into Seller Central. Amazon has no API for filing the claim, so you file it yourself; AgentXray never files anything.
