Smart Alerts & Buy Box monitoring

A Smart Alert is a rule that watches one of your tracked products and notifies you when something meaningful changes. Instead of manually checking listings, you set the condition once and we surface the alert when it fires. You can create rules for:

• Price drops — when a product crosses a price you set or moves by a percentage
• BSR changes — when rank shifts past a threshold or by a percentage
• Stock alerts — when a product looks out of stock or restocks
• Review alerts — when review count or rating moves
• Listing changes — when a title, image, or other listing detail is edited
• Hijacker detected — when a new seller appears on a listing you own or watch
• Buy Box lost — when the Buy Box winner changes

1. Open Monitoring → Smart Alerts.
2. Choose the alert type (price drop, BSR change, Buy Box lost, and so on).
3. Pick the target — usually an ASIN from your tracked products. If the product isn’t tracked yet, we’ll pull in its details automatically when you add the rule.
4. Set the condition: a fixed threshold (for example, price under $24.99) or a percent change (for example, BSR worsens by 20%).
5. Save. The rule runs against your products on our regular scans — you don’t need to trigger anything by hand.

Alerts arrive in-app: they show in your notifications and the bell badge counts unread ones. You can mark alerts read individually or all at once, and pause or delete any rule from the same screen without losing your other rules.

Compound alerts let you combine conditions with AND/OR logic across up to three sub-rules — for example, “notify me only if price drops below $20 AND BSR improves into the top 5,000.” This cuts noise so you hear about the situations that actually matter.

Buy Box monitoring tracks who is winning the Buy Box on your tracked listings over time — critical if you sell on shared listings or watch competitors who do. For each tracked ASIN you can see:

• Current Buy Box owner and whether Amazon itself is on the listing
• A volatility score — how often ownership flips, so you can tell a stable listing from a contested one
• Seller count and how it’s trending over the window you choose (7 to 90 days)
• An offer ladder — the observed sellers, their prices, and who’s FBA
• An event timeline of ownership changes and undercuts

You can also run a live Buy Box check on demand for a single product, and ask Lumai AI for repricing advice that weighs competitor prices, your win-rate trend, and recent volatility. As always, that’s a recommendation to weigh — not a guaranteed way to win the Buy Box.

• Set thresholds where you’d actually act — a price alert at your buy-cost or breakeven is more useful than one at a round number.
• Use percent-change conditions for noisy metrics like BSR so small daily wiggles don’t spam you.
• Pause rules for a product you’ve stopped following instead of deleting — you can flip them back on later.
• On Growth and up, reach for compound rules to combine signals and keep your notifications meaningful.
