Why it exists

Amazon trend data, without the plumbing

Amazon's Product Advertising API requires approval and a sales threshold, and it does not expose search demand anyway. Seller tools like Helium 10 track listings and rank; Trends API tracks the demand side: how often shoppers search for a product or category, normalized so you can compare it with Google and TikTok demand in the same units.

The cross-platform view matters for product research. A product whose TikTok hashtag volume doubled last quarter but whose Amazon search volume has not moved yet is a different opportunity than one where demand already peaked on both.

FAQ

Common questions

What Amazon data does Trends API provide?

Product search volume over time (normalized 0-100), growth over 3M/6M/12M/5Y windows, and two live feeds: Amazon Best Sellers Top Rated and Best Sellers by Category.

Do I need an Amazon seller or PA-API account?

No. There is no Amazon-side credential at all. One Trends API key covers Amazon and every other source.

How is this different from Keepa or Helium 10?

Those tools track listing-level price and rank history. Trends API tracks the demand side, how often people search for a product or category, normalized so you can compare it against Google, TikTok and YouTube demand in the same units.

Can I compare a product's Amazon demand with its TikTok buzz?

Yes. Query the same keyword on amazon and tiktok and compare normalized scores or growth percentages directly. TikTok typically leads Amazon by several weeks.

How far back does the history go?

Up to 5 years of weekly data on paid plans; 12 months on the free tier.
