Worth knowing
Aura
- Each plan caps monthly sales, counted over the trailing two months; going over means moving up a tier.

- Chat support runs 9 to 5 Eastern time on weekdays from Boston.

- Basic covers only 50 AI-repriced listings; inventory-based conditions start at AI Deluxe.
- AI Advertising costs $99 a month ($89 billed annually) plus 2% of ad spend over $5,000, rising to $499 for bigger budgets.
- BigCentral is billed separately; its Business plan is $50 a month for 5,000 Amazon emails, with $0.01 per email over the limit.
- Product and keyword research, the profit dashboard and the BigTracker Chrome extension come with BigCentral, not the repricer.
Key features
Aura
- Maven AI repricing
- Learns which prices lose the Buy Box, tests competitors with timed price rises and can set each listing's maximum price itself.
- 10-second repricing
- Aura says it detects a competitor's price change and responds in under 10 seconds, for FBA and FBM listings alike.
- Amazon and Walmart
- Reprices on both Amazon and Walmart from one dashboard, with settings for each marketplace.
- Automatic floors and ceilings
- Auto min/max sets price floors and ceilings to protect margins, and costs can sync in from other tools.
- Workflows and bulk uploads
- Workflows switch strategies on a schedule and manage listings automatically; uploads change Amazon and Walmart listings in bulk.
- Pricing log and reports
- A log records every price change and the reason for it, and reports export listing and competitor data.
BQool

- Rule-based repricing
- Five ready-made rules plus custom rules, with bulk ROI settings and scheduled repricing for set times.

- A separate product that optimizes Amazon PPC campaigns, from $89 a month billed annually plus 2% of ad spend above a plan threshold.
