Repricing that knows what each unit cost you

Apex Gold works out every listing's break-even from your landed cost and Amazon's fees, so a price never goes under it. Then it prices against the Buy Box with the strategy you pick.

Sound familiar?

A rival drops 3 cents and takes the Buy Box.

With Apex: Run your strategies and Apex prices a cent under them, never below your floor.

Your repricer raced someone to the bottom and sold at a loss.

With Apex: Every floor is break-even, from your real cost and Amazon's fees.

You hold the Buy Box and you're still leaving money on the table.

With Apex: While you own it, Apex can raise toward the next rival.

How it works

  1. 01

    Your costs set the floor

    Costs come from your purchase orders or what you type in. Apex adds Amazon's referral and fulfillment fees and sets each floor at break-even, or at the ROI you choose.

  2. 02

    Pick how each listing competes

    Hold the Buy Box, raise while you own it, or go a cent under the cheapest rival, never below the floor. Or build a strategy of your own.

  3. 03

    Run your strategies

    Prices change when you run your strategies from Apex. Repricing automatically the moment a competitor changes price is built but not switched on yet. Every decision is logged with the reason, so you can see why a price moved.

Honest comparison

Apex Applications vs Aura, compared honestly

Aura is a dedicated repricing platform with automation, analytics and integrations, and a seller who wants a focused repricing workflow should evaluate it on its own terms. Apex Gold, which is in beta and included on Pro, is a repricer that sits inside the suite that produced the numbers it prices against: floors computed from your real fees, connected to the purchase orders and P&L those prices feed. Know how Apex Gold moves prices before you compare: Prices change when you run your strategies from Apex. Repricing automatically the moment a competitor changes price is built but not switched on yet.

Which one fits you

Choose Aura if…

  • Repricing is the one job you are buying software for, and you want a platform built around only that.
  • You want to try it without handing over a card first. Aura's trial is 14 days and takes none.
  • Its tier limits fit your listing count more cheaply than a suite you would not use.

Choose Apex if…

  • You want price floors derived from your own landed costs and fees rather than min/max fields you calculate yourself.
  • The prices, the purchase orders and the profit report should be the same system, so a floor and a reorder decision cannot disagree.
  • You would rather one subscription covered sourcing, buying, pricing and books than assemble them (pricing is on Pro).

More comparisons on the comparison index.

Competitor prices come from the vendor's own pricing page, linked beside each price. A price we have not rechecked within 90 days is replaced by that link. Other competitor details come from public pages and independent reviews (Aura pricing). Aura changes its features and prices on its own schedule, so check its site for current terms. Apex details come from the Apex app itself. Aura is a trademark of its owner; no affiliation.

Price above break-even, every time.
