Switching is painless

If prospecting and market mapping is part of your week, this is additive: keep SmartScout for discovery and competitive ad intel, and add My Real Profit for the P&L and customer analytics it does not attempt.

Setup is two clicks and fully automated, with no contracts, no credit card, and a 21-day free trial for any company size. Run both and see which one your operating decisions come from.

FAQ

Questions brands ask before choosing between My Real Profit and SmartScout

Yes, and that is the usual setup. SmartScout stays your tool for prospecting, market mapping, and competitor ad research, while My Real Profit answers the profit and customer questions for the brand you already run. Run both through your trial and see which one you open for each decision.
Not if you prospect. SmartScout is built to find brands, sellers, and opportunities. My Real Profit is built to run your own brand: live P&L, cohort LTV, Plan vs Actual, and a 40-KPI daily report. Wholesale and agency teams often keep SmartScout and add My Real Profit.
It depends on the job. For market research, other research suites compete with SmartScout. For brands that need the inside view, My Real Profit is the closest fit: true profit, customer economics, and SQP next to ad spend. Every report is open on the 21-day trial with no credit card.
Both tools read your SQP data from Amazon Brand Analytics. My Real Profit adds PPC spend and ACoS on the same row as each search query, shows cannibalization across your ASINs, and ties the results to your P&L and lifetime value.
When you connect, the trial loads 2 months of history, and LTV Analytics loads up to 18 months. On a paid plan, up to 24 months of sales and fees load automatically. Advertising data goes back 2 months, the limit of Amazon’s Advertising API. From then on, a paid plan keeps your data forever, so your history only grows.
