Catalog Monitoring

Your Amazon listings, watched around the clock.

What gets monitored

Every field that matters to your listing.

When Amazon's algorithm or a third-party seller touches your listing, the changes are rarely obvious. CentralDesk catches them automatically and shows you exactly what shifted.

Content integrity

Titles and Bullet Points

Amazon rewrites titles and bullets more often than sellers realize, sometimes during a catalog update, sometimes after a brand registry dispute, sometimes for no apparent reason. You'll know when it happens.

Visual content

Main Image and Carousel

Image changes are among the most damaging and hardest to spot. A competitor contribution, a hijacker's photo swap, or an Amazon quality flag can replace your main image without any notification to you.

Listing health

Hijacks and Unauthorized Sellers

When a third party takes over your listing and pushes their content live, your carefully optimized copy disappears. CentralDesk detects the change and surfaces it immediately so you can act.

Catalog structure

Browse Category and Product Type

A miscategorized product loses discoverability overnight. Category and product type changes are tracked as first-class changes, not footnotes.

Detail page data

Specifications and Technical Details

The specifications table is often edited by other sellers contributing to your listing. Changes to dimensions, materials, compatibility, and other attributes are caught and flagged.

Content changes

Know When Your Updates Are Live

Submitted a title update or sent new images to Amazon? CentralDesk will detect when they go live on the product page, so you don't have to keep checking manually.

How it works

Upload once. We watch it forever.

There is no ongoing maintenance on your end. Upload your ASIN list once and CentralDesk handles everything from there.

Upload your ASINs

Drop any spreadsheet containing ASINs into your catalog portal. CentralDesk finds the ASIN column automatically and merges new products into your catalog.

We fetch live data

CentralDesk pulls current product data from Amazon several times a day using the Rainforest API, building a snapshot of every field that matters to your listing.

Changes are flagged

Each new pull is compared against the previous snapshot. When a field changes, the product is flagged and a Was vs. Now diff is stored in your portal.

You're alerted and in control

You receive an email listing every changed product. In your portal, you can review the full Was vs. Now diff and acknowledge the change.

Everything you need to stay on top of your catalog.

Upload your ASINs, and CentralDesk handles the rest. Checks run automatically several times a day, and you get an email the moment anything changes.

Questions

Common questions about catalog monitoring.

If you don't see what you're looking for, email us at hello@centraldesk.io

Your catalog is scanned four times per day using the Rainforest API, which pulls live Amazon product data directly. That means a change made to your listing in the morning will typically be detected within a few hours, not the next day.

CentralDesk tracks nine fields per product: title, brand, parent ASIN, main image, carousel images, bullet points, browse category, technical specifications, and product type. Any difference between the current pull and the previous snapshot is flagged as a change. Minor variations in field ordering or Amazon's own Best Sellers Rank updates are filtered out to prevent noise.

You receive one email per sync cycle in which changes are detected, listing all the products that changed in that cycle. If a sync runs and nothing has changed, no email is sent. You won't be flooded with noise, only notified when something actually needs your attention.

The Monitor plan supports up to 100 ASINs. If you need to monitor a larger catalog or manage multiple seller accounts, contact us at hello@centraldesk.io to discuss your requirements.

No. Once you have uploaded your ASIN list and your catalog has been populated with initial product data, monitoring runs automatically. You don't need to trigger scans or log in to check anything. CentralDesk will email you when there is something to look at.
