Jungle Scout vs Keepa (2026): Different Jobs, Real Costs and When You Need Both

Jungle Scout and Keepa do different jobs, so pick by business model. If you resell products (arbitrage or wholesale), Keepa is the one you need: its price-history charts are free and Keepa Pro costs €29 a month. If you launch your own products, buy Jungle Scout, from $29 a month billed annually, and keep Keepa’s free charts beside it. Prices checked 10 October 2026 and re-read on 11 November 2026.

The two overlap less than the “vs” suggests. Keepa records what has already happened to a listing: its price, sales rank, offer count and Buy Box. Jungle Scout estimates demand for products you might sell, then helps you source, list and run them. The Keepa facts below come from its Pro, API and Apps pages and its FAQ, read in a browser on 11 November 2026. The Jungle Scout facts come from its pricing page (checked 10 October 2026; the annual view and comparison table re-read on 11 November 2026) and from its help center and browser-store listings (read 11 November 2026). Jungle Scout is one of our affiliate partners and Keepa is not, which is why the verdict below says plainly when Keepa alone is enough.

Jungle Scout or Keepa: the quick answer by job

The sections below give the source and date for each row.

What Keepa does, and what is free

Keepa’s homepage sums up the free product in one line: “Price history for every product, and an alert the moment the price drops. Free, no account needed.” Its Apps page repeats it: “Price history charts, Deals and price alerts all work without an account.”

Keepa Pro costs €29 a month, or €290 a year, which Keepa’s FAQ describes as “12 months for the price of 10”. The Pro page lists twelve subscription benefits. These are the ones sellers pay for:

• Advanced Graphs: “Monitor Sales Rank, Offer Counts, and Rating/Review Counts.”
• Buy Box Statistics: “Gain deep insights into Buy Box rotation and competitive pricing history.”
• Inventory Tracking: “View current and historical stock levels for all offers.”
• Product Finder: “Search and filter through millions of products.”
• Product Viewer: “Import/export lists to analyze prices and product details in bulk.”
• Expanded Price Tracking: “Updated price data for up to 10,000 products you select”.

The FAQ adds three conditions. Keepa bills “exclusively in Euros”. It offers no “free trials, coupons, or promotional discounts”. And subscriptions are “per seat”: “Sharing within organizations or households is not permitted.” Our Keepa pricing guide goes through the plan on its own.

The Pro page lists no keyword research, supplier database, listing tools, review requests or advertising tools. Keepa’s FAQ describes the product this way: “Keepa records the price history of products on Amazon.”

What Jungle Scout does

Jungle Scout’s self-serve platform, Catalyst, is a web app plus a browser extension. Its help center describes Catalyst as “product research, keyword optimization, listing building, sales analytics, advertising insights, and review automation”. Its pricing table (re-read 11 November 2026) splits the tools like this:

• Every plan: the browser extension, Product Database and Opportunity Finder (100 searches a month each on Starter), Keyword Scout (50 searches a month on Starter, 250 on Growth Accelerator) and the Product Tracker.
• From Growth Accelerator: Supplier Database, Listing Builder, Review Automation, Rank Tracker, Sales Analytics, Advertising Analytics and Inventory Manager.
• Brand Owner only: Competitive Intelligence, with 5 segments.

Jungle Scout’s sales figures are estimates from its own model, which it calls AccuSales. Its help center says estimates in the extension and the Product Database “are based on the ASIN’s sales and revenue data from the last rolling 30-day period”. Keepa Pro’s page lists sales-rank graphs, not sales or revenue estimates, so if you want a units-per-month figure for a product you don’t sell, that is Jungle Scout’s side of the line.

Jungle Scout covers Amazon only: its help center says “our system only supports Amazon marketplaces”. Our Jungle Scout review goes through each tool and what Starter leaves out.

Jungle Scout vs Keepa pricing: what a year costs

Jungle Scout’s prices are from its Catalyst pricing page, checked 10 October 2026: Starter is $49 a month or $29 billed annually, Growth Accelerator $79 or $49, Brand Owner $149 or $129. The annual view read the same on 11 November 2026. Keepa’s are from its Pro page and FAQ, re-read on 11 November 2026. The 12-month totals are our arithmetic.

Jungle Scout’s own comparison is out of date. Its article Jungle Scout vs. Keepa, dated 5 March 2024, still lists Jungle Scout under its earlier plan names (Basic, Suite and Professional) at prices that no longer match its pricing page, and it quotes Keepa in dollars under an old plan name, although Keepa bills only in euros. Use each vendor’s pricing page, not that article. Its conclusion still stands, and it is close to ours: “For those who just need historical sales and pricing information when doing product research, Keepa is probably your best bet. In many cases, Amazon sellers use both of these tools.”

Keepa Pro on yearly billing costs less than any Jungle Scout plan, and the free charts cost nothing. Neither tool has a free trial. Jungle Scout instead gives new customers on regularly priced plans a 7-day money-back guarantee, which you have to request from support. Our Jungle Scout pricing guide has the plan limits, the refund terms and the current offers.

The cost of running both

Keepa charges in euros, and its FAQ says a non-euro card is converted by your bank, so we have not added the two currencies together. The first row is the one most private-label sellers should start with: the free Keepa chart shows how a competitor’s price has moved over a longer period than Jungle Scout documents.

How far back each tool’s history goes

Keepa’s figure comes from the FAQ on its API page: “Price history goes back to 2011. Sales-rank, offer and stock histories start later; how far back depends on the product.” Its Apps page says the charts let you “zoom out to view years of data”. None of the Keepa pages we read ties history depth to a plan.

Jungle Scout’s limits are by plan. The Product Tracker and keyword-history figures are from its pricing table (checked 10 October 2026 and re-read on 11 November 2026). The extension’s graph is described in a help-center article: it shows “Historical Trends for the last 3monts, 6 months or 1 year, or 2 years”, and “this feature is not included with the Starter plan, so the graph will be empty!” The pricing table agrees: its “See Historical Trends” row is crossed for Starter and ticked for Growth Accelerator and Brand Owner. Neither source says whether the 2-year window is the same on both.

So the longest history Jungle Scout documents is 2 years. If you need to see how a price behaved over several Q4s, Keepa is the one whose history reaches back that far.

What each browser extension shows on an Amazon page

Keepa works on product pages. Its Apps page says “the Keepa price history chart appears directly on every Amazon product page”, and its FAQ says the “Keepa Box is embedded below the product image and product details”. The chart needs no account. Keepa lists extensions for Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Opera, and its Chrome Web Store listing showed 5,000,000 users on 11 November 2026. Our Keepa extension guide looks at it on its own.

Jungle Scout works mainly on search results. Its Chrome Web Store listing says: “Extract rank, sales volume, estimated revenue and more without entering the product page.” The listing also names an Opportunity Score, an FBA Profit Calculator and CSV export. On a product page it adds a panel with daily and monthly sales, monthly revenue, net profit per sale and fees per sale, above the Historical Trends graph. That graph can plot three lines at a time from price, rank, unit sales, star rating, review count, Amazon’s price, the lowest new price and the new-offer count. The extension needs a Jungle Scout plan, is published for Chrome and Firefox, and showed 300,000 Chrome users on 11 November 2026. See our Jungle Scout Chrome extension guide for the details.

The difference that matters for resellers is the Buy Box. Jungle Scout’s graph draws price lines, but the help article lists nothing that shows which seller held the Buy Box, and Jungle Scout’s help center lists “Buy Box monitoring” under Cobalt, its enterprise platform. Keepa Pro sells Buy Box rotation statistics for €29 a month.

Marketplaces and API access

Marketplaces. Keepa’s FAQ lists 11 Amazon marketplaces: the US, Germany, Great Britain, France, Italy, Spain, Canada, Japan, India, Mexico and Brazil. Jungle Scout’s marketplace list names 8 it is “fully compatible” with (the US, Canada, Mexico, the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain) and 9 with “limited support” (India, Japan, the Netherlands, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Australia, Singapore and Brazil). So Keepa tracks Japan, India and Brazil, where Jungle Scout offers only limited support, while Jungle Scout offers limited support in six stores Keepa doesn’t list. The same Jungle Scout article says its Supplier Database “has data for goods imported to the US only”.

API. Keepa sells its API separately from Keepa Pro, from €49 a month for 20 tokens a minute; its API page says every plan includes every endpoint, all 11 marketplaces and a connector for AI assistants. Jungle Scout’s pricing table gives Growth Accelerator and Brand Owner a 100-request API trial (re-read 11 November 2026), and its help center’s API access article says further calls are bought as a separate API plan inside the app.

Which one for your business model

Private label: Jungle Scout, with Keepa’s free charts

Private-label sellers need to find a product, estimate its demand, find a supplier, write a listing and collect reviews. That is Jungle Scout’s list of tools. Keepa Pro’s list has a Product Finder, but no keyword, supplier, listing or review tools. Buy Growth Accelerator, not Starter, if you plan to launch: Starter has no Supplier Database, listing tools or review requests. Then open the free Keepa chart on every competitor before you order stock. Our best Amazon product research tools roundup makes the same pairing its pick for a first product.

Wholesale: Keepa Pro first

Wholesale buyers sell branded products next to other sellers, so the questions are how many sellers share the listing, who wins the Buy Box and whether the price holds. Keepa Pro’s Buy Box Statistics, Offer Counts graph and Inventory Tracking answer those. Jungle Scout’s Supplier Database searches US import records, which helps you find manufacturers, not judge a branded listing. For finding brands and sellers to approach, our SmartScout wholesale guide covers a tool built around that.

Online and retail arbitrage: Keepa, often the free version

Arbitrage decisions turn on one check, whether today’s price is normal or a spike, and Keepa’s free chart shows it. For retail arbitrage, Keepa’s mobile app has a barcode scanner “to check online prices while you are in a retail store”. Move to Keepa Pro when you want sales-rank and offer-count graphs. Jungle Scout’s research and listing tools add little here, because you are not creating a listing. Sourcing scanners and deal analyzers are compared in our best Amazon arbitrage tools guide.

Brand owners: Jungle Scout for growth, Keepa for policing the listing

A brand that already sells needs keyword tracking, review requests and competitor monitoring. Jungle Scout Brand Owner ($129 a month billed annually, or $149 monthly) has 3 seats, Competitive Intelligence and a 5,000-keyword Rank Tracker. Keepa Pro covers a different risk: other sellers on your listings. Its Buy Box Statistics, Offer Counts graph and Price Increase Tracking help you see how many sellers are on your listings, who wins the Buy Box and when prices move. Brands past $1 million a year are steered to Jungle Scout Cobalt, which is sold by demo with no published price.

Jungle Scout, Helium 10 and Keepa: do you need all three?

No. Jungle Scout and Helium 10 are rivals: both are suites with sales estimates, keyword research and listing tools, so paying for both buys the same jobs twice. Helium 10 Platinum costs $99 a month billed yearly, or $129 monthly, against $49 or $79 for Jungle Scout Growth Accelerator (both checked 10 October 2026). Choose one suite with our Helium 10 vs Jungle Scout comparison, then add Keepa to either; Helium 10 vs Keepa covers that pairing. If Jungle Scout isn’t the right suite for you, our Jungle Scout alternatives page lists the others.

Bottom line: Jungle Scout, Keepa or both
