FAQ

What Amazon data does Trends MCP provide?

Amazon product search volume trends - normalized interest over time reflecting consumer purchase intent. This is distinct from Google Search data because Amazon queries represent active buying intent rather than general information seeking.

Is Amazon search data useful for e-commerce product research?

Yes. Compare product keyword demand on Amazon vs. Google to understand whether consumer intent is primarily informational or transactional. Rising Amazon search is a strong buying signal.

Can I track a whole product category?

Yes. Use a category keyword like 'bluetooth headphones' or 'protein powder' and the signal aggregates demand across that category on Amazon.

How is Amazon trend data normalized?

All values are normalized to a 0-100 scale for consistent comparison. An absolute volume estimate is also returned alongside the normalized signal.

All data sources

Trends MCP covers 12+ sources in one connection: Google Search, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, Amazon, Wikipedia, News Sentiment, Web Traffic, App Downloads, Steam, npm, and more.

pip install amazon-trends-mcp

import os
from amazon_trends_mcp import TrendsMcpClient, SOURCE

client = TrendsMcpClient(api_key=os.environ["TRENDSMCP_API_KEY"])

series  = client.get_trends(source=SOURCE, keyword="your keyword")
growth  = client.get_growth(source=SOURCE, keyword="your keyword", percent_growth=["1M", "3M", "12M"])
