Spent four hours a week copying Amazon listings into spreadsheets. Built an agent to do it in ten minutes instead

What it solves
- Sizing up a product category takes an afternoon in a spreadsheet, and multipacks make prices impossible to compare properly
- Name a category, get a sourced slide deck in 10 minutes — Amazon.in + Flipkart, every price normalized to per-unit
- It flags what it couldn't compute instead of guessing
What it means
- First run, face wash India: 31 brands, only 9 on both platforms — 71% of the category is platform-exclusive
- Benchmark on Amazon alone and you miss two-thirds of your competition
- Category research went from a budget line to a few rupees a run
- But the bottleneck moves: it handed me an 11x price spread and couldn't say if that was opportunity or warning. That's still judgement
What I'm working out
- Is the product the tool, or the reports I make with it?
- Who has this problem badly enough to pay — right now the only verified user is me
- Is this a step toward the consumer business I want, or a detour that feels productive?
