Look up an Amazon product by ASIN or URL and retrieve structured product information
Run a keyword search against Amazon and return ranked product results
Retrieve the available sort options for a given Amazon keyword search
Fetch buy recommendations associated with a specific Amazon product
GET STARTED
Use for: Look up the price and rating of an Amazon product by ASIN, Search Amazon for 'wireless headphones' and return the top results, Get buy recommendations for an Amazon product, Find the available sort options for an Amazon keyword search
Not supported: Does not handle order placement, seller account management, or non-Amazon marketplaces — use for Amazon product lookup, keyword search, and buy-recommendation retrieval only.
The Axesso API provides programmatic access to Amazon product data, including product lookups, keyword search results, sort options, and buy-recommendation suggestions. It is used by price-monitoring tools, e-commerce researchers, and competitive-intelligence agents that need structured Amazon data without scraping. The API is hosted at api.axesso.de and exposes four GET endpoints under the /amz path.
Replace HTML scraping of Amazon listings with a structured JSON response surface
Patterns agents use Axesso API API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Amazon Price and Listing Monitoring
Repricing tools and merchandising teams can poll Axesso to track price, rating, and availability changes on specific ASINs. GET /amz/amazon-lookup-product returns structured product data so monitoring jobs can diff against the previous snapshot. Suitable for dashboards that watch a defined set of competitor or own-brand listings.
Call GET /amz/amazon-lookup-product for an ASIN and store price, stock, and rating fields in a snapshot table for later comparison
Keyword Research for Amazon SEO
Sellers can run keyword queries through GET /amz/amazon-search-by-keyword to see how Amazon ranks listings for a given query. Combine with /amz/sort-options to test different sort orders and surface what Amazon shows shoppers under each. Useful for listing-optimisation and PPC keyword planning.
Run GET /amz/amazon-search-by-keyword for the seller's top three target keywords and capture the first 20 results per query
Competitive Recommendation Mining
Marketplaces and brand teams can fetch the buy recommendations Amazon shows alongside a competing product via GET /amz/amazon-lookup-buy-recommendations. This surfaces frequently-bought-with and similar-product slots that are valuable for category strategy. Suited to retail-intelligence workflows.
Call GET /amz/amazon-lookup-buy-recommendations for a target ASIN and extract the recommended ASINs for category benchmarking
Agent-Driven Amazon Research via Jentic
An e-commerce research agent can search Amazon, look up products, and retrieve recommendations through Jentic without managing the Axesso endpoint URLs. Jentic exposes the four operations as discoverable tools the agent can chain. Suited to category-research assistants and pricing copilots.
Search Jentic for 'search amazon by keyword', load GET /amz/amazon-search-by-keyword, and execute it for the user's research query

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
The Axesso API key is stored encrypted in the Jentic vault and injected into the request at call time. The raw key never enters the agent's context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent (e.g. 'search amazon by keyword' or 'lookup amazon product') and Jentic returns the matching Axesso operations with their input schemas attached.
Time to first call
Direct Axesso integration: a few hours to wire the API key, retry logic, and pagination across keyword searches. Through Jentic: minutes from search to first executed lookup.
Alternatives and complements available in the Jentic catalogue.
eBay API
eBay's official APIs cover the equivalent marketplace research surface for eBay listings.
Use eBay when the research target is the eBay marketplace rather than Amazon.
ScraperAPI
Generic web scraping API that can also fetch Amazon pages but returns raw HTML rather than structured product data.
Choose ScraperAPI when the agent needs flexible HTML retrieval across many sites; use Axesso when the workflow is specifically Amazon product data and structured JSON is preferred.
ZenRows API
Headless-browser scraping API competing with Axesso for Amazon data extraction.
Pick ZenRows when the agent needs to render JavaScript-heavy targets beyond Amazon; pick Axesso when the workflow is Amazon-only and wants normalised JSON.
Specific to using Axesso API API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Axesso API use?
The published OpenAPI spec does not declare a security scheme on these four /amz endpoints. In practice Axesso requires an API key for production usage; through Jentic, that key is held in the vault and injected at call time so it never reaches the agent context.
Can I look up a single Amazon product with the Axesso API?
Yes. GET /amz/amazon-lookup-product takes the product identifier and returns structured product information so you do not need to scrape the Amazon HTML.
How do I search Amazon by keyword through the Axesso API?
Call GET /amz/amazon-search-by-keyword with the keyword and any sort parameters. Use GET /amz/sort-options first to discover the valid sort values for that query.
What are the rate limits for the Axesso API?
The OpenAPI spec does not declare rate limits. Axesso enforces plan-based quotas via the customer dashboard. Back off on 429 responses and stagger lookups when iterating across many ASINs.
How do I run an Amazon search through Jentic?
Search Jentic for 'search amazon by keyword', load the GET /amz/amazon-search-by-keyword schema, and execute it. Jentic forwards the query and returns the JSON results to your agent.
Is the Axesso API free?
Axesso runs paid plans with quotas tied to product lookups and keyword searches. Check the Axesso website for current pricing tiers; Jentic only mediates the API calls, not billing.
