ProfitPer Product Analyzer

ProfitPer is a financial management tool for online retail sellers that automatically calculates the true profitability of each product. It pulls data from sales platforms, ad accounts, and expense records to factor in returns, fees, and ad costs, alerting you to hidden losses and enabling data-driven pricing and inventory decisions.

Key Features

Automated profitability calculations per SKU including all hidden costs
Integration with major marketplaces (Amazon, eBay, Shopify) and ad platforms
Real-time dashboards showing profit margins, cost leaks, and trend alerts
Actionable recommendations to adjust pricing, reduce ad spend, or discontinue loss-making products

Target Users: Small to medium retail sellers and independent merchants on online marketplaces who sell multiple products and struggle with profitability tracking.

Revenue Model: SaaS subscription with tiers based on number of products or monthly sales volume.
